V Line Surgery
V Line Surgery in Surrey
V-Line surgery is a comprehensive facial contouring procedure designed to transform a wide or square lower face into a slimmer, more refined V-shape. Unlike jaw angle surgery, which only addresses the back corners of the jaw, V-Line surgery reshapes the jaw angles, jawline, and chin together. This creates a continuous, tapered contour that makes the face appear smaller, softer, and more balanced.
The procedure typically involves reducing the bone at the jaw angles, slimming the lower border of the jaw, and refining the chin to achieve a smooth, feminine profile. Popular in the Asian population but sought after worldwide, V-Line surgery is chosen by patients who want a dramatic yet natural improvement in facial harmony.
The opposite goal also applies for some people. Instead of slimming, they may wish to create a stronger, more defined jawline and chin. In these cases, custom facial implants can be used to build structure and projection, blending seamlessly with the natural bone once healed.
Dr. Bahi can further discuss this surgery with you and also which procedures are appropriate for you.
