What surgery would I need to undergo to make my jawline sharper & more of a v-shape? (Photos)

Thriving652325Jun 29, 2024
I have an oval face and I have always hated how round my jawline is from the front. I also don't like how the lower third of my face is long.

This is likely a soft tissue problem unrelated to the bony chin. From a small incision below the chin, the soft tissue can be released and I would inject a small amount of fat in the space.
