Overview of Jaw Reduction Surgery
Jaw Reduction Surgery, also known as V-Line Surgery or Mandibular Contouring, is a specialized facial bone procedure designed to create a slimmer, smoother, and more proportionate lower facial contour. This surgery reduces a square or wide jawline, enhancing facial balance and symmetry for both male and female patients — and is especially popular among MTF (Male-to-Female) patients seeking a softer, feminine facial profile.
At Dr. Jaray Cosmetic Surgery Clinic, Dr. Jaray Krainam MD, one of Thailand’s most respected facial contouring experts, performs this procedure using advanced techniques that prioritize safety, precision, and natural-looking results. With more than 20 years of international experience, Dr. Jaray is trusted by patients from Asia, Europe, and the United States for his artistry and meticulous approach to aesthetic bone surgery.
Preparation Before Surgery
A successful jaw reduction begins with careful pre-operative preparation. Before your surgery, patients should:
- Attend a comprehensive consultation and 3D facial analysis with Dr. Jaray to evaluate bone structure and desired outcomes.
- Undergo pre-surgical imaging (CT scan or X-ray) to plan accurate bone contouring.
- Discuss any medical conditions, previous surgeries, and current medications.
- Stop smoking and alcohol consumption for at least two weeks before surgery to promote healing.
- Avoid blood-thinning medications (such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or vitamin E).
- Arrange for post-operative rest and assistance, as you will need time to recover after anesthesia.
Dr. Jaray’s team will guide you step-by-step through the preparation process to ensure optimal safety and results.
Surgical Procedure
Jaw Reduction Surgery is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 3–4 hours, depending on complexity.
- Incision Placement – Small incisions are made inside the mouth, ensuring there are no visible scars.
- Bone Contouring – Using precise surgical tools, Dr. Jaray gently reshapes and slims down the mandibular angles and jawbone to achieve a smoother, V-shaped contour.
- Symmetry Adjustment – Both sides are carefully balanced to create perfect facial harmony.
- Closure and Recovery – The incisions are closed with dissolvable sutures, and a compression dressing may be applied to minimize swelling.
This technique minimizes trauma to surrounding tissues, ensuring faster healing and natural, lasting results.
Post-Operative Care
Post-surgery recovery is an essential part of achieving beautiful and safe results. After the procedure:
- Swelling and mild discomfort are normal for 1–2 weeks and gradually subside.
- You will be advised to maintain a soft or liquid diet for 7–10 days to protect the internal incisions.
- Use cold compresses and sleep with your head elevated for the first few days.
- Rinse your mouth with antiseptic mouthwash and keep excellent oral hygiene.
- Avoid heavy physical activity for 3–4 weeks.
- Attend scheduled follow-up visits for monitoring and care.
Most patients return to normal activities within 2–3 weeks, with the final jawline definition visible after 2–3 months.
Possible Risks and Complications
When performed by a qualified surgeon, Jaw Reduction Surgery is very safe. However, as with all surgical procedures, some risks include:
- Temporary numbness or tightness in the jaw area
- Mild swelling or bruising
- Infection (rare and preventable)
- Minor asymmetry (very rare)
- Bleeding or hematoma
At Dr. Jaray Cosmetic Surgery, meticulous planning, modern techniques, and post-operative monitoring significantly minimize these risks.
