Jaw Reduction in Korea

01 — Overview

Jaw Reduction

Jaw reduction slims a prominent or square jaw angle, softening the lower face for a more refined, balanced line.

A strong jaw angle or hypertrophic masseter muscle can make the lower face look square. Jaw reduction reshapes the bony angle and, where muscle is the cause, can be paired with masseter treatment. The result is a softer, slimmer lower-face line that stays natural.

02 — Approaches

Approaches we offer

The most suitable approach depends on your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals. During your consultation, your surgeon will recommend the best option for you.

Angle Reduction — The prominent bony jaw angle is reduced for a softer contour.
Curved Ostectomy — A smooth curved cut avoids a secondary angle for a natural line.
Cortical Shaving — Outer bone shaved to reduce front-view width.
With Masseter Care — Paired with masseter Botox where muscle contributes to width.

07 — FAQ

Common questions

Is my jaw width from bone or muscle?

Both can contribute. The surgeon assesses with imaging — bony width is reduced surgically; muscular width can be paired with masseter Botox.

Will there be a visible scar?

Incisions are made inside the mouth, so there is no visible external scar.

How long is recovery?

Plan 10–14 days in Seoul; swelling subsides over weeks, final line over months.

Can it be combined with chin surgery?

Yes — jaw reduction with genioplasty or V-line gives a complete lower-face result.
