Face is where most of the aesthetic elements of our body are located. Face is the only part of the body where surgery is performed on the bones to create the desired aesthetic look. In general, people like to have a part of their facial bone shaved off to have a smaller well-shaped face and to create a softer impression. The human head contains largely 3 types of bones. Excluding the skull that contains the brain, the jawbone and cheekbones can be remodified by double-jaw surgery, cheekbone reduction surgery and V-line surgery. Unlike other body parts, the face does not have any nerve endings through which it can be anesthetized. Therefore, in most cases, surgery takes place with general anesthesia or hypnoanesthesia. Everyone has different bone size and skin. Healing and recovery time of bone and skin may vary from patient-to-patient. The surgery may have side effects. We recommend that surgery take place only after consulting an expert.

The misalignment of the upper and lower jaw may cause difficulties. This may make performing everyday functions such as chewing food difficult, and may also hinder clear enunciated speech. Without treatment, the face may become asymmetric or may cause problems by damaging jaw joints. Double-jaw surgery resolves such malocclusion, increases functionality, and improves aesthetic impression as well.

Cheekbones are located on both sides of the face. As one of the most important elements of the face, cheekbones determine your face shape. Cheekbone reduction surgery softens angular and protruding cheekbones. It also reduces the overall size of the face and gives a softer look by emphasizing the cheekbones. The patient may look much younger, as a result. Cheekbones play an important role in shaping overall facial structure and also have various functions. It is imperative to consult with a specialist before having the reduction surgery.

More often we see that people with developed jaws also have protruding cheekbones. In these cases, many patients want to undergo jaw surgery or cheekbone surgery. But this does not help in reducing face size or giving a lean look. This is only possible through V-Line surgery. V-Line surgery helps achieve an overall facial balance. Angular or square jaws can be corrected to give a softer look and a sharp jawline. It has yielded satisfying results for patients who want a leaner face.
