What Is Jaw Reduction?

Jaw reduction, also known as mandibular contouring, is a surgical procedure that reshapes and refines the jawbone to reduce width or prominence. This is typically achieved by carefully sculpting the bone along the jawline to create a smoother, more tapered contour.

At SOMA, jaw reduction in Beverly Hills is performed with precision and attention to detail. The goal is not simply to reduce size, but to create a balanced relationship between the jaw, chin, and other facial features.

Benefits of Jaw Reduction

Jaw reduction offers both aesthetic refinement and improved facial harmony.

  • Softens a wide or angular jawline.
  • Creates a more tapered and balanced lower face.
  • Improves overall facial proportion and symmetry.
  • Enhances harmony between facial features.
  • Provides long-lasting, natural-looking results.

What Jaw Reduction Can Address

Jaw reduction is designed to improve several concerns related to jaw shape and prominence.

Wide or Square Jawline

A broader jaw can create a more angular appearance. Reduction helps create a softer, more refined contour.

Prominent Jaw Angles

Excess bone at the angles of the jaw can be reshaped for a smoother transition.

Facial Imbalance

An overly dominant jawline can affect overall facial harmony. Jaw reduction helps restore proportion.

Lower Face Contour Concerns

Patients seeking a more delicate or tapered lower face may benefit from this procedure.

Recovery After Jaw Reduction

Recovery after jaw reduction in Beverly Hills requires time for proper healing and adjustment. Patients may experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in the lower face. These effects are temporary and typically improve over the first few weeks. Most patients can return to light activities within one to two weeks, with a gradual return to normal routines. Swelling may take longer to fully resolve, especially in deeper tissues.

Results Over Time

As swelling subsides, the refined jawline becomes more visible. The lower face will appear softer, more tapered, and more balanced.

Final results continue to improve over several months as healing progresses, providing long-lasting enhancement in facial harmony.

Combining Jaw Reduction With Other Procedures

Jaw reduction is often combined with other facial procedures to achieve more comprehensive results.

Chin Contouring

Adjusting the chin alongside the jawline can enhance overall balance and proportion.

Facial Feminization

Jaw reduction is commonly included as part of a broader facial feminization plan.

Rhinoplasty

Improving both the jaw and nose can create a more harmonious overall profile.

At SOMA, combination procedures are carefully planned to ensure cohesive and natural-looking outcomes.

Jaw Reduction Frequently Asked Questions

Will jaw reduction make my face look too narrow?

Jaw reduction is carefully planned to maintain balance and proportion. The goal is a softer, more refined contour rather than an overly narrow appearance, ensuring your facial features remain harmonious.

How long does it take to recover from jaw reduction?

Most patients return to light activities within one to two weeks, but swelling can take several weeks to resolve fully. Final results continue to refine over a few months as healing progresses.

Are the results of jaw reduction permanent?

Yes, jaw reduction results are permanent because the underlying bone structure is reshaped. However, natural aging will continue to affect the surrounding soft tissues over time.

Will there be visible scars after jaw reduction?

Incisions are typically made inside the mouth, which means there are no visible external scars. Any internal incisions heal discreetly with proper care.

Can jaw reduction be combined with other procedures?

Yes, it is often combined with procedures such as chin contouring or rhinoplasty to improve overall facial harmony and create a more balanced, cohesive appearance.
