Jaw Contouring Surgery

In modern society, beauty is not merely about smooth skin or captivating eyes, but also lies in the harmony of every facial contour. Among these, a slim, neat V-line jaw is regarded as the ideal aesthetic standard, especially for women in Asia. That is why jaw contouring surgery is increasingly chosen by people who want to improve their appearance. At Ethics Aesthetic Clinic, jaw contouring is performed safely and to medical standards, delivering optimal results through a professional process and modern technology.

What is jaw contouring?

Jaw contouring is an aesthetic surgical procedure that directly modifies the lower jawbone to reshape its structure, helping the face appear slimmer, more balanced and softer. The procedure is usually performed through a small incision inside the mouth, after which specialized equipment such as an ultrasonic bone cutting device is used to remove excess jawbone in proportions carefully calculated by the physician. Because the incision lies inside the mouth, jaw contouring leaves no scars on the outside of the skin and supports maximum aesthetic outcome after surgery. Jaw contouring surgery is an ideal option for people who experience:

• A square or prominent lower jawbone that makes the face look heavy and unbalanced.
• Asymmetrical jaw sides that affect the overall appearance of the face.
• A desire for a sharp, soft jawline in a modern style.
• A jawbone that has grown disproportionately large relative to the face.

The jaw contouring surgery process

Jaw contouring is a major surgery involving bone, so at Ethics the process is carried out strictly at a hospital meeting Ministry of Health standards, to ensure the highest level of safety and effectiveness:

1. Initial consultation and examination

The client is examined directly by a specialist physician, who performs a clinical assessment and imaging to evaluate the condition of the jawbone in detail and listen to the client's aesthetic goals. Based on this, the physician recommends the solution best suited to each individual. Pre-surgery examination process for jaw contouring

2. General health check

Ethics carries out pre-operative tests such as X-ray imaging, blood tests, blood pressure measurement and cardiovascular checks, to confirm that the client is fit for anesthesia and surgery.

3. Performing the surgery

• General anesthesia: Keeps the client free from awareness of pain during the procedure.
• Making the incision: The physician makes a small incision inside the mouth and gently separates tissue down to the jawbone.
• Contouring the jaw: Using a laser saw or micro-saw to remove jawbone in calculated proportions, shaping the new facial contour.
• Suturing and post-operative care: The incision is closed with specialized absorbable sutures, the inside of the mouth is cleaned to help prevent infection, and a pressure dressing stabilizes the jaw framework. The surgery ends and the client is moved to the post-operative care room.

To achieve the best possible result, clients need to follow the physician's instructions carefully:

• Rest as much as possible, avoid using the jaw heavily, heavy work and sports during the first 3 to 5 days.
• Prefer liquid and soft foods that are easy to chew, to limit pressure on the wound.
• Clean the wound regularly and correctly as instructed by the physician.
• Do not touch the wound with your hands or use sharp objects to pick at it.
• Do not use stimulants such as alcohol, beer, tobacco, etc. for at least 7 days after surgery.
• If the wound shows any unusual signs, notify your physician immediately so it can be treated early.

Jaw contouring at Ethics is performed by a team of physicians with 10 to 15 years of experience, who have successfully completed hundreds of complex maxillofacial surgeries.
