Related procedures
V-line jaw surgery
V-line surgery reshapes an angular jaw and lengthens or shortens the chin tip in one operation, giving the lower face a slimmer, softer outline. VIEW removes bone only where necessary and stabilises the surrounding tissue to reduce sagging, and the procedure itself takes about 1.5 hours under general anaesthesia.
Square jaw reduction surgery
VIEW's square jaw reduction slims a wide, angular jawline through a single incision line from the chin angle to below the ear, taking about 1 hour of surgery. The team removes only as much bone as necessary to keep the jawline smooth without sagging.
Zygoma (cheekbone) reduction
VIEW's zygoma reduction repositions a protruding cheekbone through a small incision and a double-fixing technique that lowers the risk of cheek sagging afterwards. The procedure takes about 1 hour under general anaesthesia.
Genioplasty (chin surgery)
VIEW's genioplasty uses a T-shaped chin osteotomy to lengthen, shorten, narrow or reposition the chin for a natural V-line profile. Surgery takes about 1 hour under general anaesthesia.
Facial silicone implants
VIEW's facial implant surgery uses custom-made silicone to add volume to the forehead, midface, nasolabial folds or chin tip, with incisions hidden from view. The procedure takes roughly 30 minutes to 1 hour under general anaesthesia.
3-type facial contouring (cheekbone, jaw & chin)
VIEW's 3-type facial contouring reduces the cheekbones, squares jaw and reshapes the chin tip all in one operation, balancing both the width and length of the face. Surgery takes about 3 hours under general anaesthesia.
Facial contouring revision surgery
VIEW's facial contouring revision is designed for patients unhappy with a previous contouring result or dealing with irregular bone shape. The team reviews photos, X-rays and CT scans in detail before planning a correction suited to the remaining bone and tissue; surgery time depends on the technique required.
Two-jaw (orthognathic) surgery
VIEW's two-jaw surgery corrects skeletal bite problems such as a protruding mouth, protruding or receded chin, and facial asymmetry. A team of plastic surgeon, dentist and anaesthesiologist work together to improve both the appearance and the bite function of the jaw.
Three-jaw surgery
VIEW's three-jaw surgery combines two-jaw orthognathic surgery with protruding mouth correction, used when chin and mouth protrusion are both severe. It corrects the upper jaw, lower jaw and gum position together, taking about 2 hours under general anaesthesia.
Protruding mouth correction surgery
VIEW's protruding mouth correction addresses a jaw or gum line that projects forward relative to the nose and chin, improving facial profile balance. The degree of protrusion, bite, bone shape and nerve position are assessed before choosing the right treatment, and surgery takes about 1.5 hours under general anaesthesia.
Two-jaw revision surgery
VIEW's two-jaw revision is for patients who have had jaw surgery before but whose appearance or bite function was not fully corrected. The team analyses the case in detail before planning a correction using the VIEW Double Jaw Revision System, with surgery taking about 2 hours under general anaesthesia.
