Vilray Blair and Edward H. Angle collaborated to introduce osteotomy to the mandibular body with a horizontal incision, marking the beginning of orthognathic surgery. [6] With these notable modifications in surgical procedures for prognathism, BSSO, IVRO and EVRO are procedures used in practise to treat individuals with dentofacial deformities.

In the treatment of midface anomalies there are generally more operations needed. Bone tissue reconstruction of the midface often occurs later than the soft tissue reconstruction. The most common method to reconstruct the midface is by using the fracture/ incision lines described by René Le Fort. When the cleft involves the maxilla, it is ...

[7] [10] Various modifications of the procedure have since then been described which aim to reduce the duration of the procedure, reduce the risks of the lenticules being incorrectly cut or make the procedure easier to learn.
This method is used for patients with an enormous amount of soft tissue excess. Fish-incision brachioplasty uses mathematical measurements and anatomic marking that allows the preoperative marking of the incision in the shape of a fish. [5]
