Facial contouring
Square jaw reduction (사각턱수술)
The angle below the ear is resected in one long, continuous curve along the lateral border. EU may add cortical bone shaving and deep buccal fat removal to strengthen the frontal-view result.
Who it suits
- A flared mandibular angle and angular face
- A face that looks wide from the front
Technique highlights
- Osteotomy position and angle chosen from bone shape and muscle development
- Cortical shaving to thin the jaw where indicated
Surgical steps
- Analysing bone size, thickness and masseter development
- Long-curved ostectomy from angle to lateral border
- Optional cortical shaving or deep buccal fat removal
Recovery & aftercare
- A single-area case usually goes home the same day
Risks & things to consider
- Reducing the angle alone will not change a blunt chin
Frequently asked questions
Does removing more bone mean a slimmer face?
EU says no: what matters is effective volume reduction through the right osteotomy position and angle, plus cortical shaving where appropriate.
