Treatment Overview
Jawline Implant Surgery is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the shape, definition, and overall contour of the jawline. By placing biocompatible implants along the jaw, surgeons can achieve a stronger, more symmetrical lower face and balanced facial proportions.
In Korea, advanced techniques and 3D imaging are used to customize the implant design for each patient, ensuring natural-looking results that harmonize with the chin, cheeks, and other facial features.
