Prze from Poland first learned about Dr. Ming-Chi Hsieh through the clinic’s YouTube channel. After watching several English-language educational videos and patient case stories, he decided to travel to Taiwan for a consultation about orthognathic surgery.
Prze initially hoped that orthognathic surgery could create a more elongated facial profile. After evaluating his facial structure and concerns, however, Dr. Hsieh determined that orthognathic surgery was not necessary and that 3D customized mandibular contouring surgery would be more appropriate for his needs.
Although Prze had initially expected to undergo orthognathic surgery, Dr. Hsieh recommended a different approach based on his individual facial structure. Through several discussions, they explored facial proportions, treatment options, and Prze’s expectations. Prze felt that Dr. Hsieh’s approach to facial planning aligned with what he was looking for and decided to proceed with 3D customized mandibular contouring surgery instead.
Prze was pleased with the postoperative results. His experience also highlights the importance of a thorough preoperative evaluation: the procedure a patient initially has in mind may not necessarily be the most appropriate option for their individual needs. Careful assessment and communication are essential in developing a treatment plan based on each patient’s specific condition.
