"Japanese Small Face Sculpting" Q&A

 What is "Japanese Small Face Bone Setting"?

"Japanese Small Face Bone Setting" uses manual massage to relax facial muscles and fascia, improve blood circulation, narrow bone gaps, and reposition bones to their original places. This gradually improves facial issues, allowing the face to regain symmetry and definition without surgery or injections!


What is the principle behind small face bone setting?
Our skull is composed of 23 cranial bones, each varying in shape and interconnected. Their size and positioning determine our face shape and features. Due to daily habits, facial bones can shift, causing our cranial bones to become misaligned, leading to issues like asymmetrical faces. By moving and repositioning the facial bones, we can change one's appearance.

Why choose Green Island for "Japanese Small Face Bone Setting"?
Corrector Chloe personally visited Mr. Hideaki Izumi, the director of the Japanese Small Face Correction Association. Through the most authentic and professional Japanese techniques, she performs corrective adjustments on key areas such as the cheekbones, nasal bones, and jawbones, enhancing facial contours and sculpting a perfect face shape suitable for you.     

Does small face bone setting hurt?
Many people think small face bone setting must be painful, but in reality, authentic Japanese small face bone setting is different from common "fascia adjustment" or "bone popping." The cranial therapy technique is gentle and slow, opening up various cranial sutures and relaxing the fascia and muscles of the entire head and face. After relaxation, the facial bones become easier to move, and with gentle traction, the facial features can be reshaped.  Bone setters need to study the muscles, fascia, and bone structure of the human face, which involves professional medical knowledge. Our unique technique ensures a completely pain-free process. Some areas, like the jawbone, might feel a slight soreness when moved. If the client cannot tolerate it, the technician can reduce the intensity. Our goal is "pain-free beauty," ensuring clients can comfortably fall asleep during the treatment.

How many sessions are needed to see results?
Results are immediate. Before the small face procedure, we measure the client's face size. Typically, clients can reduce 2-3mm immediately after one correction session. During the process, the technician will guide you to feel with your hands and observe in the mirror, ensuring you can perceive the changes both tactilely and visually.

How often should I do it?
It is recommended to have a session once every 1-2 weeks. After the first few treatments, the facial bones are not yet stable and can easily shift. Waiting too long would undo previous efforts. However, it is also not recommended to do it too frequently, as the bones need time to adjust and recover; rushing it can lead to rebound effects.

How many sessions are needed in total?
After 3-4 sessions, there is a noticeable change in the overall facial contours and features.
Generally, 5-6 sessions achieve the best results, which can last for 2 years or more.

I have had small face treatments elsewhere before, why was there no significant improvement?
Every establishment has different techniques. We provide the best corrective solution based on the client's face shape, rather than applying the same technique to all face types. We also take photos of facial contours and measure facial dimensions before and after correction to allow clients to see the actual difference.

 

Are there any risks with Japanese small face bone setting?
Japanese small face bone setting is different from regular bone popping. We adjust the position of facial bones within their movable range, so it is neither painful nor dangerous.

 

Why do facial bones deform?
The fascia throughout the entire human body is interconnected. When body muscles and fascia are too tight, or when there is uneven force distribution or unbalanced posture, it can pull on the facial bones, leading to deformation and misalignment. Habits like crossing legs, propping the chin, sleeping on one side, or carrying a bag on one shoulder can all affect facial shape and features. To maintain good and long-lasting results, it is essential to correct these daily habits.
