Jaw Contouring Surgery
Jaw contouring surgery, also known as jawline sculpting or jawline contouring, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to enhance the shape and definition of the jawline. This procedure is typically sought after by individuals who desire a more defined, balanced, or symmetrical facial appearance.
There are several techniques used in jaw contouring surgery, depending on the specific goals of the patient and the characteristics of their jawline. Some common methods include:
- Jaw Reduction Surgery: This procedure involves reshaping the jawbone to reduce its size and prominence. It may be performed using techniques such as shaving down the bone or removing a portion of the jawbone to achieve the desired contour.
- Jaw Augmentation Surgery: Conversely, jaw augmentation involves adding volume to the jawline to create a stronger, more defined appearance. This can be achieved through the use of implants, bone grafts, or injectable fillers.
