Retmus Plastic Surgery

What is V-Line Surgery?

V-line surgery is not simply reducing the square jaw.
Instead, it reshapes both the mandibular angle(square jaw area)
and the chin area to create a slimmer and more refined facial contour.

Square jaw reduction alone removes only the angular portion of the mandible,
so the lower face may still appear wide. However, V-line surgery adjusts the chin as well,
creating a smooth, balanced, and defined lower face ratio

Retmus V-Line Surgical Technique

At Retmus, V-line surgery is performed by dissecting only the minimum necessary anatomical layers while minimizing heat damage during surgery.
This method shortens the overall surgery time, reduces bleeding and swelling, and significantly shortens the recovery period.

Method 01
Wide and Angular Square Jaw

The broad, angular jawline is evaluated and precisely designed before surgery.

Method 02
Resection of the Jawbone Beneath the Ear

The mandibular angle beneath the ear is trimmed, and the jawbone is narrowed inward to create a slimmer contour.

Method 03
Slim and Refined Jawline Completion

A smooth and slender V-line is completed after surgery.

Even if the lower face is effectively reduced through a V-Line procedure,
if the midface(philtrum or nose) is relatively long, the overall proportion can appear unbalanced.
At Retmus, V-Line surgery can be combined with philtrum reduction or rhinoplasty
to achieve a youthful appearance and ideal facial ratio.

Ideal Candidates

When V-Line Surgery is Recommended
