Woman, 26, shaves facial bone after nicknamed 'big pancake face'

A 26-year-old woman in Taiwan reportedly shaved the bone structure of her face after she was nicknamed ‘big pancake face’.

The woman’s face, according to an Asiaone report, swelled up to the size of an inflated balloon following the surgery but it became normal after 45 days. The new face became distinctively sharper after the operation.

She, however, advised other women not to go overboard in pursuit of perfection, the report said.

The doctors involved in the surgery said it was a complicated operation than other surgeries because the risk of complication is pretty high.

Quoting the doctors, the report said that little carelessness could have paralysed chin or damage the lower branch of the facial nerve that controls the lower lip.
