Facial Bone Reduction Surgery

Facial Bone Reduction Surgery – Sculpt and Balance Your Features Permanently

Facial bone reduction surgery is a specialized procedure designed to reshape and reduce the size of prominent facial bones to create a more balanced, symmetrical, and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Commonly performed on areas like the cheekbones, jawline, and chin, this surgery is ideal for those seeking a more refined or slender facial contour.

Whether you're looking to soften a strong jaw, narrow wide cheekbones, or achieve a more V-line facial shape, facial bone contouring offers dramatic and permanent results.

What Is Facial Bone Reduction Surgery?

Facial bone reduction surgery involves carefully sculpting and reshaping parts of the facial skeleton, such as the zygoma (cheekbones), mandible (jaw), or chin, to achieve more proportionate and harmonious features.

The procedure is performed under general anesthesia, and incisions are typically made inside the mouth or along the hairline to minimize visible scarring. Advanced surgical techniques are used to ensure both aesthetic improvement and functional safety.


Common Types of Facial Bone Reduction

  • Cheekbone Reduction (Zygoma Reduction) – Narrows wide cheekbones to soften the side profile and create a slimmer facial width.
  • Jaw Reduction Surgery – Reduces the size and angle of the lower jaw for a more tapered, feminine, or V-line look.
  • Chin Reduction (Genioplasty or T-Osteotomy) – Reshapes or reduces a prominent or long chin to enhance facial proportions.
  • Double Jaw Surgery – Realigns both the upper and lower jaw to correct asymmetry or jaw protrusion, often combined with aesthetic goals.


Who Is an Ideal Candidate?

You may be a good candidate for facial bone reduction surgery if you:

  • Have prominent facial bones that affect your facial harmony
  • Desire a slimmer, softer, or more feminine-looking face
  • Have facial asymmetry, protrusion, or imbalance
  • Are in good physical health with stable bone development
  • Have realistic expectations and understand the surgical process

This procedure is suitable for both men and women who want to make lasting changes to their facial structure.


Benefits of Facial Bone Contouring

  • Permanently sculpts and refines facial proportions
  • Reduces facial width and bulk for a slimmer appearance
  • Improves symmetry and facial harmony
  • Customizable based on your unique facial anatomy and goals
  • Boosts self-confidence with a more balanced look


What to Expect During the Procedure

Facial bone reduction is performed under general anesthesia and can take 2 to 4 hours, depending on the areas treated.

Incisions are typically made inside the mouth or hairline to avoid visible scars. Bones are carefully reshaped using precision surgical tools, and stitches are used to close incisions. In some cases, plates or screws may be used for stability.

You will be monitored post-surgery and usually stay in the hospital for 1 to 2 nights for recovery and observation.


Recovery and Aftercare

Recovery time varies, but most patients experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort for 1 to 2 weeks. A soft diet is often recommended during the initial healing phase.

Swelling can take several weeks to fully resolve, and final results may be visible after 2 to 3 months. Most people return to work or normal activities within 2 to 3 weeks, depending on the extent of surgery.

Following your surgeon’s aftercare instructions is essential for optimal healing and long-term results.
