What Is a Wide or Square Jaw?

Eine breite oder eckige Kieferpartie entsteht, wenn der Unterkieferwinkel (der Unterkieferknochen) von Natur aus breit oder dick ist, was dem Gesicht ein kastenförmiges, maskulines Aussehen verleiht. Dies ist ein häufiges Problem bei Personen, die eine schlankere, feinere V-förmige Gesichtskontur bevorzugen.

Key features of a wide jaw include:

• A square, broad lower face
• A bulky or heavy jawline
• Prominent angles at the sides of the jaw
• A facial shape that appears short and wide
• Difficulty achieving a slim, tapered look with makeup or hairstyles

What Is Jaw Reduction Surgery?

Jaw Reduction Surgery is a bone contouring procedure that removes or reshapes the mandibular angle and lower jaw to create a slimmer, more defined V-line profile.

At Seoul Cheil Plastic Surgery, jaw reduction is performed with precision and artistry for natural-looking, scar-free results. The procedure involves:

• Making a hidden incision inside the mouth for no visible scars
• Trimming or reshaping the mandibular angle and jawbone
• Smoothing and blending the bone for a soft, tapered contour
• Operationsdauer: ca. 2–3 Stunden unter Vollnarkose
• Often combined with chin surgery (genioplasty) or masseter muscle reduction for a complete V-line transformation

Why Combine With Other Procedures?

Jaw width is just one part of the overall facial contour. For optimal balance and harmony, jaw reduction is often combined with:

• Chin reshaping (genioplasty) for ideal projection and shape
• Buccal fat removal for cheek slimming
• Cheekbone reduction for facial width balance
• Fat grafting to restore soft tissue volume where needed

This holistic approach ensures a natural, proportional result that enhances your unique beauty.

Wichtige Merkmale eines Gesichts, die von einer Kieferreduktionsoperation profitieren können

• Eine quadratische, breite oder eckige Kieferpartie
• Ein schweres, maskulines unteres Gesicht
• A face that appears short and broad
• Difficulty achieving a V-line silhouette
• A desire for a softer, more feminine contour

Can Botox Replace Jaw Reduction Surgery?

Botox can help slim the masseter muscle for a temporary reduction in jaw bulk, but it:

• Die Knochenbreite kann nicht reduziert werden
• Requires repeat treatments every 4–6 months
• Is not a permanent solution for true bony prominence

Für dauerhafte, strukturelle Ergebnisse ist eine Kieferreduktionsoperation die einzige wirksame Option.
