Overview of

Mini V- line Surgery

Mini V-line surgery is a good fit for patients who wish to reduce the frontal area of their jaw. This type of surgery is recommended for individuals that want to change their already small jawline and make it more attractive.

Pros and cons of

Mini V- line Surgery

Pros

‍There are many advantages associated with mini V-line surgery. The procedure is a lot less painful than a full V-line surgery since the area to be operated on is only the front part of the chin. In relation to this, since the area targeted for surgery is smaller, mini V-line surgery requires less surgery time.
On average, the surgery will only take about thirty minutes as opposed to the hours needed for other surgeries. More often than not, the patient will not need hospitalization after the operation.
Individuals who undergo mini V-line surgery can recover in about two to three days; only having to deal with minor symptoms such as bruising and sensitivity in the operated area.
Since mini V-line surgery is a lot less invasive than the full V-line option, patients can reduce the risk of nerve damage to the face.
Finally, there is also the monetary advantage to undergoing mini V-line surgery as compared to having full V-line surgery done on your face. In places like South Korea, the procedure can range from 2000 USD up to 3000 USD. Though it is still quite pricey, it is still cheaper compared to full V-line surgery, which can cost up to double the amount.

Cons

Patients need to undergo general anesthesia for the procedure
Risk of uneven healing or asymmetry of the jaw
Surgery outcome may not be satisfactory and therefore patient may require a follow-up surgery
Risk of nerve damage causing asymmetric smiling
Other surgery risks such as bleeding or infection

How it works:

Mini V- line Surgery

T-osteotomy is the main process done by your facial surgeon for mini V-Line surgery. The T in T-osteotomy refers to the way a T-shaped incision is made to the front of your jaw. The incision is done methodically in order to minimize any possible nerve damage.

The surgeon then reconstructs your chin bone in a way that makes it more slender and feminine. The reconstruction occurs by extracting a piece of your chin bone.

The remaining hollow space in between is then filled in by pulling together the bones that surround the space, thereby filling in the gap caused by the removed part of your chin bone. The frontal V-line is created by keeping the patient’s jaw line balanced with the overall mandibular angles of their face.

The entire surgery is painless, as the patient will be sedated with anesthesia before undergoing the operation. In terms of time, the surgery can be finished in half an hour.

The patient only needs about two to three days to recover after the surgery, with any remaining stitches dissolving after about a week. The recovery time required from the patient is quick enough that hospitalization is not mandatory after undergoing mini V-line surgery.

Preparation before

Mini V- line Surgery

Pre - treatment

Prior to undergoing mini V-line surgery, the patient must ingest blood-thinning medications two weeks ahead of their appointment. Smoking and drinking are heavily discouraged, as these can increase the risk for health complications and delay the recovery period after the surgery. For individuals with certain health concerns or for those taking existing medication, your healthcare professional may give you more instructions to better fit your needs.

Recovery after

Mini V- line Surgery

Post - treatment

As the procedure is not that invasive, there are only a few steps required from the patient after undergoing mini V-line surgery. A mandatory compressive bandage will be affixed to the patient for two or three days.

Swelling in the area will occur, but it should go away after a month of healing. Once a recovery period of two weeks passes, the patient can then resume their day to day routine, albeit being careful with the operated area.

Risks & side effects

Mini V-line surgery comes with risks and side-effects that patients need to be aware of before opting for the procedure.

The area will swell and be inflamed after the operation. The surgical site will also be prone to bruising. As with all surgeries done with anesthesia, patients may experience headaches. There is also a danger of the patient's jaw not healing equally and a risk of nerve damage.

FAQs:

Mini V- line Surgery

How does a mini V-line surgery differ from a regular V-line surgery?

Both forms of surgery involve manipulating the chin bones of the patient in order to create a more slender and elegant look to the face. Mini V-line surgery is generally less invasive than regular V-line surgery. Only the front of the chin or the jaws is operated on, as opposed to regular V-line surgery where the full jawline is affected. Less recovery time is needed for mini V-line surgery and less risk is taken by the patient when they undergo the operation compared to full V-line surgery.

‍

What makes you a good candidate for Mini V-Line surgery?

To be a suitable candidate for mini V-line surgery, the patient should not have an overly rectangular jaw. Patients should consider having the surgery if they want a more slender and effeminate jaw line without having to go through an extensive post-treatment procedure. Those with chins that are either too sharp or too weak are prime candidates for the procedure. Those who have done V-line surgery in the past but dislike the outcome can also opt for another surgery to achieve their desired look.
