What Is Chin & Jawline Reduction?

- Prominent or over-projecting chin

What Happens During Chin & Jawline Reduction Surgery?
Surgical reshaping of the chin and jawline happens under general anesthesia to ensure total comfort throughout the procedure. Dr. Sykes typically makes an incision within the mouth, which prevents visible scarring. The jawbone is reshaped through an incision between the cheek and the gum, creating a more refined, elegant, and feminine structure.
The chin is addressed through an incision along the gumline toward the front of the mouth, through which Dr. Sykes reshapes the tissue and bone to create a softer, less pronounced chin shape. The incisions are closed with dissolvable sutures, and surgical bandages protect the area, minimizing swelling and aiding the healing process.

The Chin & Jawline Reduction Recovery Process in Los Angeles

Dr. Sykes will give you a detailed recovery plan with aftercare instructions that will support your healing progress. Most patients can return to work and daily activities after one week; however, you must avoid strenuous exercise and temporarily eat a soft diet to reduce irritation to the area.
When Can I See the Results From My Chin & Jawline Reduction?
The results of chin and jawline reduction become visible immediately; however, it may take some time for the residual swelling to subside before you can see the final results.
