The Le Fort III Osteotomy for oral and maxillofacial surgery, is used to correct generalised growth failure of the midface involving the upper jaw nose and cheek bones (zygomas).^[1] The surgical approach and post operative management is similar as for the Le Fort II procedure.^[2]

Brow lift procedures may be carried out at the same time as Le Fort II and Le Fort III osteotomies.^{[citation needed]}
