Secondary Deformity Correction Surgery

Secondary deformity correction surgery involves the surgical revision of facial or jaw structures that have healed improperly or produced unsatisfactory results following trauma, congenital defects, or previous surgeries. These deformities can affect both appearance and function—such as facial symmetry, bite alignment, speech, or breathing.

This type of surgery is often necessary when the initial treatment does not achieve optimal outcomes or when complications arise during the healing process. It may address issues such as asymmetry, scarring, irregular bone healing, or residual deformities after primary surgery or trauma management.

Procedures can include:

• Repositioning of facial bones or jaws

• Scar revision or soft tissue contouring

• Dental occlusion correction

• Implant placement or removal

• Reconstructive bone grafting

A multidisciplinary approach is often required, involving oral and maxillofacial surgeons, orthodontists, plastic surgeons, and other specialists to ensure functional and aesthetic restoration.
