Drain-Free Jaw Contouring Advantages

A controlled surgical system designed around precise dissection, comprehensive hemostasis and concealed incisions.

Conventional jaw contouring often requires wider dissection and postoperative drainage to manage fluid accumulation. Dr. Lee's system limits the surgical field, controls bleeding layer by layer and closes tissue in multiple tension-reducing layers, allowing postoperative fluid to be absorbed naturally without an external drainage tube.

1. Controlled Dissection & Full-Scope Hemostasis

The dissection area is precisely limited to avoid unnecessary tissue separation. Layered hemostasis is performed throughout the surgical field to minimize residual blood and reduce the cavity in which postoperative fluid could collect.

2. Drain-Free Recovery Design

Multi-layer tension-reducing closure creates a secure tissue seal so fluid can be absorbed naturally. Avoiding an external drainage tube means no additional tube wound, less tube discomfort and reduced exposure to tube-related infection risks.

3. Signature Skeletal Procedures

  • Zygomatic Reduction: 4th-generation 3D bidirectional rotation with simultaneous fascia support
  • Mandibular Contouring: Long-curve mandibular angle osteotomy with outer cortex splitting
  • Chin Remodeling: 3D genioplasty can be combined for a coordinated full-face V-Line
  • Incision: Small concealed intraoral incisions with no exposed facial incision
