Jaw Contouring (V-Line Surgery)

What is it?

V-Line surgery reshapes the jaw and chin to create a more slender, contoured “V-shaped” face.

About Jaw Contouring (V-Line Surgery)

At RGIMS, our V-Line jaw contouring surgery, often combined with buccal fat removal, is a transformative procedure designed to refine and slim the lower face. Ideal for individuals who desire a softer, more balanced look, V-Line surgery reshapes the jawbone and chin, providing a streamlined, feminine profile. The surgery involves precisely sculpting the jawline and narrowing a wide or square jaw shape for a sleeker appearance. By incorporating buccal fat removal, we can further enhance facial contours, reducing the fullness in the lower cheeks. This combination creates a more delicate, contoured face shape, bringing harmony to facial proportions and creating a naturally balanced look.

How it Works

Consultation

The surgeon examines the facial structure and discusses the desired outcomes.

Procedure

Incisions are made inside the mouth to access the jawbone. Bone shaving or trimming techniques are used to reduce the width of the jaw. The chin may also be shortened or reshaped to achieve the desired “V” shape.

Recovery

Swelling and bruising are normal for 2-3 weeks. Complete healing and final results appear in 3-6 months.

Results

Patients achieve a more defined, contoured jawline with a slimmer, more proportionate facial appearance.

Quick answers to questions you may have

What is the typical recovery time for facial plastic surgery procedures?

Recovery times vary depending on the procedure. Minor treatments, such as eyelid surgery, may allow patients to resume daily activities within a week, while more comprehensive surgeries, like facelifts, may require a few weeks for full recovery. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth healing process tailored to your procedure.

Will facial plastic surgery results look natural?

Yes, our goal at RGIMS is to enhance your natural features with subtle, refined results. Our surgeons take an individualized approach, focusing on symmetry and balance, to create outcomes that are both harmonious and true to your natural beauty. We work closely with each patient to ensure their aesthetic goals are met authentically.

Are facial cosmetic surgeries safe?

Safety is our utmost priority. Our experienced surgical team utilizes advanced, state-of-the-art techniques and maintains the highest standards of hygiene and safety. We conduct thorough pre-operative assessments and monitor patients closely during and after procedures to ensure the safest, most comfortable experience possible.

How long do the results from facial plastic surgery last?

The longevity of results varies by procedure. Surgical results, like rhinoplasty and facelifts, are generally long-lasting, often lasting for years. While procedures do not halt aging, following recommended care and lifestyle habits can help maintain results over time. We’ll discuss expected outcomes for your specific treatment during your consultation.

What’s the difference between a mini-facelift and a traditional facelift?

A mini-facelift is a less invasive option focused on lifting and tightening the lower face, ideal for patients with mild sagging. A traditional facelift targets more extensive facial aging, addressing both the mid and lower face and offering more comprehensive rejuvenation. We help patients determine which procedure aligns with their goals during the consultation process.

Who is an ideal candidate for facial plastic and cosmetic surgery?

Ideal candidates are generally healthy individuals with realistic expectations for their outcomes. Factors such as age, skin elasticity, bone structure, and overall health all play a role in determining suitability. We conduct detailed consultations to help each patient understand which procedures align best with their goals and expectations.
