About this procedure
A well-defined jawline can dramatically enhance facial harmony and balance. V-Line Surgery is designed to slim and contour the lower face by reshaping the jawline and chin, creating a softer, more refined V-shaped facial profile.
This procedure can reduce a wide or square jaw appearance while improving overall facial proportions. The result is a smoother, more elegant facial contour that enhances your natural features and creates a more youthful, balanced, and refined appearance.
V-Line Jaw Contouring Surgery Method
Chin Osteotomy
A T-osteotomy or ㅅ-osteotomy technique is used for contouring the tip of the chin.
Center Bone Removal
The center bone piece is removed, and the remaining pieces are moved inward toward the center.
Secure Fixation
Fixation pins, harmless to the human body, are used to securely position the chin tip.
One-Line Contouring
Avoiding the nerve line, one-line contouring is performed from the angled jaw behind the ear to the front chin.
