Procedure Overview

Facial contour surgery is a specialized set of procedures designed to enhance the shape and structure of the face, creating a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing appearance. It targets the bones and soft tissues to improve facial harmony. The most common types of facial contouring procedures include:

V-Line Surgery: Reshapes the jawline to create a slimmer, more defined V-shaped face.
Cheekbone Reduction (Zygoma Reduction): Reduces prominent cheekbones for a smoother, more proportionate facial contour.
Chin Augmentation/Reduction: Adjusts the size or shape of the chin to achieve better facial balance.
Jaw Reduction: Narrows the lower jaw for a more refined and feminine look.

Goals of the Surgery

The primary goals of facial contour surgery are to:

Enhance facial symmetry and balance.
Soften sharp or prominent facial features.
Create a more youthful and harmonious appearance.
Improve self-confidence by aligning facial features with personal aesthetic desires.
