What is Mandible Angle Reduction?

A prominent and sharp jawline can be undesirable to many patients as it creates a masculine facial appearance. Mandible Angle Reduction is done to transform a square-shaped face into a more delicate and feminine facial appearance.

This surgical procedure is effective in correcting prominent structure and angle of the lower jaw, thus reducing the width of your lower face, changing a square face to an oval or V-shaped face.

The ideal candidate for this major surgery a healthy non-smoking person who doesn’t have a medical history of bleeding or autoimmune conditions, and other conditions that may deem this surgery unsuitable.

How It Works

Mandible Angle Reduction improves the size of the jaw and chin by removing the broader part of mandible bones so that the jaw takes a more elongated shape with a smoother contour.

At our affiliated hospital, the surgery is done through an extraoral incision, which means the incision will be made from outside of the mouth instead of from the inside. This will result in a visible surgical scar. However, it will fade with time.

Treatment Procedure

1. Consultation will be done.
2. Areas of your face will be marked for the surgery.
3. Anesthesia will be administered.
4. Incision will be made along the jawline and chin.
5. The mandible bone will be shaved down and the chin may be sharpened to create a better facial contour.
6. The incisions will then be stitched together. Temporary drains may be inserted.
7. End of surgery. Your conditions will be monitored.
