V Line Jawline Surgery
V-Line Jawline Surgery | Mandibleplasty Atlanta, GA
V-Line Jawline contouring or mandibleplasty is a revolutionary procedure that aims to slim and contour your jaw, giving you a more feminine, soft, and elegant jawline.
Many women arenโt born with the soft, gently curved jawline. Thanks to the wonderful genetics passed down from parents and grandparents, some women inherit a strong jawline and are left feeling self-conscious about their more masculine facial structure. V-Line jaw contouring is the perfect solution for those who suffer from a heavy or square jawline, as well as those who want to soften their features. It can be tailored to your appearance and individual characteristics to help create facial harmony with feminizing, naturally attractive results.

What Is V-Line Jawline Surgery?
V-line jawline surgery, also known as mandibleplasty, is a technique used in facial contouring surgery to narrow the lower portion of the face to create a softer, more feminine jawline. V-line mandibuloplasty addresses three important aspects of the lower face: the jaw angles, the body of the mandible, and the chin. With V-line mandibuloplasty, you can preserve that natural curvature of your face while also attaining a slimmer, more elegant profile.
What Can V-Line Mandibuloplasty Address?
You might consider a V-line mandibuloplasty if you are unhappy or self-conscious about how masculine your jawline and facial structure appear. Not only can a V-line jaw contouring procedure create a softer, more feminine jawline, but it can also address these other common jawline issues:
A V-line mandibuloplasty brings the jawline forward and gently rounds the area, which can have a positive effect on the appearance of double chin for some patients. If a double chin is an added area of concern for you, discuss it with Dr. Huynh to determine if a V-line mandibuloplasty can solve the issue alone or if a secondary procedure is necessary.
During a mandibuloplasty, the bone along the jaw is shaved away, correcting the appearance of an exaggerated U-shape that some patients are born with.
A square jaw is often seen as a masculine characteristic. While it isnโt an unattractive characteristic, it adds a hardness to the face and can detract from feminine elegance. V-line jawline surgery will sculpt and contour the bones of the jaw to create a softer facial structure.
Some V-line contouring patients in Atlanta also request the removal of excess fat in their cheeks. Dr. Huynh also performs buccal fat removal to reduce the excess fat tissue, which aids in the total transformation of your features.
What to Expect from Your V-Line Jaw Surgery?
When undergoing a V-Line Mandibuloplasty at Radiance Surgery & Aesthetic Medicine with Dr. Huynh at his accredited surgical facility, general anesthesia will be administered so that you can rest during the duration of your procedure.ย
A V-line jaw contouring procedure begins with Dr. Huynh making incremental reductions to the angles of your jaw. Next, he carefully reduces the sides of your mandible body to give your lower jaw a softer, more oval shape. Lastly, Dr. Huynh will enhance your chin by either reduction or augmentation, depending on your aesthetic goals.

What to Expect from V-Line Mandibuloplasty Recovery?
Once your surgery is complete and youโve woken up from anesthesia, some pain and discomfort is to be expected, especially when you open your jaw or eat following surgery. You may be limited to a liquid diet for a few days to weeks. Bruising, swelling, and inflammation after surgery is completely normal, and ice packs can help. You may experience some headache, nausea, and lightheadedness, so itโs very important that you rest for the next 24 to 48 hours after your procedure.
Most patients return to their normal activities after 2 to 3 weeks. Many patients can return to work after just a few days, but only if approved by Dr. Huynh. After 2 weeks, youโll return to Dr. Huynh to have your stitches removed. Aftercare instruction vary from patient to patient, but may include:
- Antibiotics
- Medications
- In-clinic cleanings and dressings
- Multiple check-ups
After the first 2 weeks, a large percentage of the swelling should have resolved, and youโll notice the full results of your procedure. Dr. Huynh will continue to monitor you and answer any questions or concerns that may come up throughout the duration of your healing process. By the six-month mark, the vast majority ofย swelling should be resolved, and youโll see the complete results of your mandibuloplasty.
