The zygomatic arch is located under the orbit, forming a bony process on the cheek. The zygomatic arch is located on both sides of the craniofacial bone, so it is named because it is arched outward. The width of one third of the face is mainly determined by the height of the zygomatic bone and zygomatic arch. If the zygomatic arch process is too wide, it will cause facial stiffness or facial aesthetic defects.
There are usually two types of zygomatic reduction: if the zygomatic protrusion is not serious, it can be corrected by oral incision, but if the zygomatic protrusion is obvious, it is usually cut in the hair on the top of the head. The scope of this kind of surgical correction is very large, which requires doctors to have rich surgical experience and skilled surgical skills. The postoperative appearance changes are very significant. After operation, the temporal region was fuller and the curve of zygomatic region around the orbit was softer than before.
Whether the zygomatic arch is too high depends on the specific conditions of the operator, such as the comparison between the zygomatic arch and other parts of the face, such as the width of mandible, the width of temporal bone and the development of temporal muscle. In addition, if there is too little subcutaneous fat, the zygomatic arch will appear too high. If a person is too thin and looks too tall, then zygomatic arch reduction surgery can't be done.
