People of all age want small and defined face. Even with beautiful features, one might not have a good appearance without a streamlined face shape. That is because face shape is crucial to the overall image of the face.
However, protruded cheekbone or angular jaw could create a strong and masculine image. Therefore, facial contouring surgery is popular among women to have a face shape that looks like “V-line”, by getting cheekbone reduction or square jaw.

However, facial contouring should be considered seriously. It is a wrong approach to understand the facial contouring simply to reduce the face size and to create a V line. One should care about many factors as the surgery might affect functional aspects, not only the external aspects.

Dr.Se-woon Choi, the director of TL Plastic Surgery advised, “As there are numerous nerves and blood vessels around facial area, the surgery should be considered carefully.”

According to him, there are surgical ways to create a small and defined face shape naturally: “Body long square jaw reduction” and “Tightening 3D cheekbone reduction.” Body long square jaw reduction and Tightening 3D cheekbone reduction are more natural and effective surgical techniques than older ones.

Body long jaw reduction corrects all the way from the square jaw bone under the ears to the side jaw line at once, creating a narrow face. Its resection line can be expanded to the frontal chin area to prevent secondary angles and create a perfect jaw line in every angle.

Also, Tightening 3D cheekbone reduction surgery cuts the cheekbone according to its shape, and provides lifting effects on the skin by upward adhesion fixation. This allows to have a smaller face and to prevent cheek sagging. Recovery is quicker as no muscle dissection allows for less bruise or swelling.

Dr.Se-woon Choi added, “For a natural and beautiful face shape, there are many factors to be considered, such as ratio of facial features and three-dimensional effect.” He also advised that, “There are more people who seek facial contouring surgery for its dramatic effect. However, patients might have to face greater consequences, so reliable surgical techniques should be applied for better and reliable results. And patients should carefully choose where to get the surgery.”
