Permanently reduce masseter muscle in Asian patient?

January 29, 2016
Asked By:beabea91 in New York, NY

25 y/o with very strong muscle. I wanted to do bone shaving (vline surgery) in Korea but when touching my face, I feel like the muscles are the actual reason for my square face. Reducing the muscles and take out my old chin implant that is too wide and do new chin surgery to make the chin a bit pointer would be ideal. What's the cons of reducing the muscles and is there such thing as invasive masseter reduction surgery?Botox is not an option.
