What is a Jawline Implant?

A jawline implant, also known as an angle implant, is a cosmetic surgical procedure where a solid, biocompatible implant is placed along the jawline to improve the shape, definition, and balance of the lower face. It's most commonly used to create a sharper, more structured jaw—especially in patients with a weak or underdefined jawline(Microgenia).

​

An implant is placed in the sides of the jaw, creating a more defined and sculpted appearance.

Facial contouring can also significantly improve your appearance and quality of life. Patients seek facial contouring for a variety of cosmetic reasons, including:

  • Reduce a Wide or Prominent Jawline

  • Enhance Facial Balance

  • Correct Asymmetry

What are my options?

At Park Avenue Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, we offer Jawline Implants in-office or at the hospital. After an initial consult and a CBCT scan, a planning phase will begin where we use Computer-Guided Planning model how your jaw will look like after the surgery. The implant will be designed beforehand and the surgery will be done inside the mouth, without external scars. Your jawbone may be shaven down to improve facial harmony.

The surgery can either be done in isolation or done in conjunction with other surgeries such as Jaw Surgery or Chin Surgery

​

Afterwards, you will have a recovery period of around 1-3 weeks, consisting of keeping your mouth clean, not overstraining your jaw, not smoke, having a liquid diet that eases into a soft diet, and taking pain, antibiotic, and inflammation medications.
