Data collection
swelling, pain
The pain score was evaluated via the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at the postoperative 3rd, 6th, 12th, and 24th hours and on the postoperative 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th days. To evaluate the level of pain, patients were instructed to rate it on 10-cm VAS wherein 0 indicated no pain and 10 indicated the worst pain imaginable. For the evaluation of swelling, the distances between the angulus and lateral canthus, angulus and lateral nasal wall, and angulus and pogonion were measured preoperatively with an elastic mm ruler (Fig. Distances of swelling measurementsMouth-opening measurement
