The cost of masseter muscle resection is between 4000- 10000 yuan, and the specific cost is not fixed, because the size of masseter muscle is different for beauty seekers. If the masseter muscle is bigger, the operation will be more difficult and the price will naturally be higher. However, the cost of choosing different doctors will be different, and the technical level and experience of doctors will also affect the cost of surgery.
Sequela of masseter muscle resection
Masseter muscle resection is mainly facial plastic surgery. If you have surgery in a regular hospital and have good postoperative care, there will be no particularly serious sequelae in most cases. However, if there is no good postoperative care, it may lead to infection or even skew of the affected area. At this time, it is recommended to go to the hospital for repair as soon as possible.
Is masseter resection permanent?
The masseter muscle resection only removes a part of the masseter muscle. After long-term eating or talking, the masseter muscle will gradually increase again, so it can be managed for a long time, but it is not permanent.
Preparation before masseter muscle resection
1, preoperative examination
First of all, from the appearance, the face of patients with masseter hypertrophy is almost square, so it is also called "square face" examination, which instructs patients to close their teeth and touch bilateral masseter muscles at the mandibular angle to feel the contraction amplitude and thickness of masseter muscles. The masseter muscle of patients with masseter hypertrophy can obviously feel the masseter muscle amplitude is larger and the masseter muscle is obviously thicker during contraction. When examining the masseter muscle, we should pay attention to the degree of hypertrophy of the mandibular angle and whether the mandibular angle is everted.
2.x-ray examination
X-ray mainly examines the hypertrophy of mandible and mandibular angle, and the development degree of masseter muscle can not be shown on X-ray film. X-ray examination can take "curved section" and "skull lateral position" films to judge the degree of mandibular hypertrophy. But X-ray can't be used as routine examination before operation. Other routine preoperative examinations: blood routine, urine routine, chest X-ray and electrocardiogram.
3, should avoid menstrual period.
During menstrual period, the coagulation mechanism in the body is poor, intraoperative bleeding increases, postoperative bleeding, hematoma and infection are easy, postoperative swelling is obvious, and the swelling period is prolonged.
4. Pay attention to supplement nutrition before operation.
The purpose of preoperative nutrition supplement is that it is generally necessary to fast from the mouth for 2 days after operation, and the physiological need is supplemented by infusion.
Surgical method of masseter muscle resection
The operation is carried out through the oral cavity, mainly paying attention to thorough disinfection, reducing bacteria in the oral cavity as much as possible and reducing postoperative infection rate. When removing the masseter muscle, the medial side of the masseter muscle should be removed to avoid damaging the mandibular marginal branch of the facial nerve. The amount of masseter muscle resection depends on preoperative examination. Because most of the masseter muscle resection needs to remove the mandibular angle at the same time, the masseter muscle itself will shrink to a certain extent 3-6 months after operation, so the masseter muscle resection amount generally does not exceed one-third of the masseter muscle thickness.
Nursing care after masseter muscle resection
1, usually fasting for 2 days after operation, using antibiotics, hemostatic drugs and enough physiological fluid.
2. There are obvious differences in the reactions of different individuals to surgery. Generally, the swelling is the most obvious 3 days after operation, and then the swelling gradually subsides, and the obvious swelling has basically subsided about 10 days after operation.
3. Try to avoid irritating diet and hard diet within one month after operation.
4, there will be temporary difficulties in opening your mouth after surgery, generally do not deliberately open your mouth to practice.
