Previous studies of the effects of surgical techniques on facial growth (with one exception) have been done in dogs, pigs, rabbits, and rats; the phylogenetically closer nonhuman primate serves as a better model. Current data, obtained from resection of the nasal septum in baboons, indicate that proper coordination of timing and surgical technique can cause arrest of growth in the upper part of the face.
以往关于手术技术对面部生长影响的研究（仅有一项例外）都是在狗、猪、兔子和大鼠身上进行的；从系统发育角度来看，亲缘关系更近的非人灵长类动物是更好的模型。目前从狒狒鼻中隔切除术获得的数据表明，手术时机和手术技术的恰当配合可导致面部上部生长停滞。
