I've been reading how the Koreans have a surgery called V Line surgery to make their faces smaller...their jaws better defined. Is there an American version of this where a Doctor can shape the whole angle of the jaw and give the chin a more v shape? Thank you!

A reduction genioplasty would provide a narrower and more delicate chin. Shaving or removing the mandibular angles would slim the back of your face. A facial CT would help determine the extent of the reduction.
We adjust these particular features all the time. We do jaw narrowing, cheek reduction, and facial contouring whenever indicated. These are done through the inside of the mouth.
Based on your photos, I would recommend a sliding genioplasty to make your chin more narrow, advance the chin to a more forward position, and lengthen your chin to diminish the deep mentolabial fold. This will make your lower face more balanced and feminine with one surgery. There is no implant...
