Dento-facial aesthetics and helping facial injury patients with injectables with Mr John Blythe

With Mr John Blythe, Maxillofacial Surgeon, UKHosts Dr Jake Sloane and David Segal

About this episode

Mr John Blythe is a UK maxillofacial surgeon who treats patients with congenital conditions and facial trauma, and is one of very few in his specialty who also uses injectables to improve his patients' quality of life.

We learn what maxillofacial surgery is before going deep into dento-facial aesthetics: the psychological impact of facial injury, combining surgery and injectables, when to choose each, assessing facial structure, occlusion and skeletal red flags, chin implants versus filler, the role of dentists in aesthetics, managing facial paralysis with toxin, the myomodulation debate, and whether injectables should be a medical specialty in their own right.
