Facial contouring

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.

Who it suits

A wide face caused by both the cheekbones and jaw together

Disproportion between cheekbones, jaw and chin

Technique highlights

Cheekbone, jaw and chin surgery are combined into one operation, reducing the number of procedures and recovery periods
The plan accounts for bone size, fat thickness, muscle and skin elasticity before surgery
Backed by a patented contouring technique and the 2018 Grand Award for Facial Contouring
Bone is removed only where necessary, with optional cheek liposuction or masseter reduction

Surgical steps

Facial proportion, cheekbone thickness and skin/nerve elasticity are assessed
Cheekbone reduction is performed with double fixation to limit sagging
The protruding jaw angle is reduced for a slimmer contour
The chin tip is reshaped with a T-osteotomy to match the overall proportion

Recovery & aftercare

About 1 day of initial recovery
Sutures removed and progress checked over the first 2 weeks, with RF or ultrasound treatments for swelling
Soft tissue around the bone can take up to 6 months to settle into the new contour
Follow-up CT and X-ray checks scheduled within 1-6 months

Risks & things to consider

Combining three procedures takes longer and requires an experienced specialist surgeon
Even after the bone is reduced, skin can take longer to tighten to match; a facelift may be considered later if the result falls short of expectations
Outcomes and risks vary by individual, and bleeding or inflammation can occur

Frequently asked questions

Is bone reduction alone enough to make the face look slim?

No — how the surrounding soft tissue adapts matters just as much. VIEW plans around bone size together with the condition of the skin, muscle and fat for a proportionate, slim result.

Will my face definitely sag after this surgery?

Reshaping the bone controls its shape and size, but cannot fully control soft tissue; skin can take up to 6 months to settle. If you are still unsatisfied after full recovery, a facelift can be considered.

Is it safe to have all three areas done together?

VIEW plans in detail, factoring in facial size, cheekbone thickness and skin/nerve elasticity before surgery, with an anaesthesiologist monitoring throughout for safety.
