The Three Areas Addressed by Contouring Surgery

The V-line of the face is determined mainly by the tip of the chin.Because many nerves pass through the chin, surgery requires a specialist's skilled technique and know-how, with careful, meticulous adjustment of the length and width of the chin tip.

Contouring at Four Seasons Plastic Surgery falls into three types: chin osteotomy, square jaw reduction, and cheekbone reduction.
