V-Line Surgery
V-Line surgery, also known as mandibuloplasty, is a cosmetic procedure designed to create a more streamlined and refined jawline. This surgery is particularly popular in Korea, where the aesthetic ideal often revolves around a slender, V-shaped face. The procedure involves reshaping the jawbone, sometimes combined with chin reductions to enhance the overall contour of the lower face.

Recovery For V-Line Surgery
Following your V-Line surgery, you will receive detailed aftercare instructions from your surgeon. We provide a dedicated contact number so you can reach us with any questions or concerns during your recovery process.
During the first week post-surgery, you can expect the following:
- Swelling: This is normal and will gradually subside over the weeks.
- Bruising: Some discoloration may be visible around the jaw and neck area but will diminish with time.
- Discomfort: You will likely experience some pain, but this can be managed effectively with medication prescribed by your surgeon.
- Limited Jaw Mobility: Initially, you may find it difficult to open your mouth wide, and chewing can be uncomfortable.
To ensure a smooth and safe recovery, it is crucial to follow these guidelines:
- Rest: Take it easy and avoid any strenuous activities to facilitate healing.
- Diet: Stick to soft foods and liquids for the first few days. Gradually reintroduce more solid foods as your comfort permits.
- Follow-Up Appointments: These are essential to monitor your healing and address any concerns. Your surgeon will schedule these to ensure everything is progressing as expected.
Most patients begin to see noticeable improvements in their facial contours as the swelling subsides. You can typically resume light social activities within 7-10 days but should avoid any activities that could impact your face, such as contact sports or extensive sun exposure, for several months.

F.A.Q.
Typically, it’s advised to avoid makeup around the jaw area for at least two weeks to prevent infection and allow incisions to heal properly.
You may need to adhere to a soft or liquid diet for a few days post-surgery, gradually returning to normal eating habits as guided by your surgeon.
With careful surgical techniques, scars are typically minimal and well-hidden within the natural contours of the face or inside the mouth, making them virtually invisible once healed.
