Methods A total of 38 patients (age 21~40 years, 35 women and 3 men) with square face were corrected by endoscope-assisted intraoral approach and resected mandibular angle with the high-speed pneumatic drill or bulky masseter muscle and buccal fat pad. Results The use of an endoscope offered a clear view of the mandibular angle region and the application of high-speed pneumatic drill facilitated accurate and easy resection of the the mandibular angle. These patients were successfully treated for these new techniques ruduced surgical trauma, operative bleeding and surgical time, along with a reduced risk of infection.
