Jawline Feminization Surgery
What are the risks in Jawline Reduction Surgery?
When considering a male-to-female transition, a patient may consider several surgical or medical procedures that a patient may consider. The most obvious of these include the enhancement of the breasts and changing the genitals to match the patient’s gender. Dr. Javad Sajan at Allure Esthetic focuses on gender-affirming top and facial surgeries such as MTF breast augmentation and facial feminization. Facial feminization can include several different procedures, including jawline feminization. Allure Esthetic provides the best jawline feminization surgery.
Overview:
Jawline Feminization Surgery
For many transgender women, nonbinary people, and others seeking facial feminization, the jawline can be a defining feature. A square or wide jaw may draw unwanted attention or feel out of sync with how you see yourself.
Jawline Feminization with Dr. Javad Sajan at feminization surgeries focuses on softening a square or angular jaw so the lower face reads more feminine without erasing your identity. Using discreet approaches and a tailored plan, Dr. Sajan aims for results that harmonize with your cheeks, lips, and chin, so your features look naturally balanced from every angle.
What Is Jawline Feminization (FFS)?
Jawline feminization, sometimes called jaw reduction or mandibular contouring, is a surgical procedure that reshapes the lower border of the jaw and, when needed, the chin. The aim is to reduce width, soften sharp angles, and round strong corners so the lower third of the face flows more softly into the neck and midface. In many cases, incisions are placed inside the mouth (intraoral) to minimize visible scarring while providing precise access to the mandibular angles and chin.
Benefits You Can Expect with Jawline Feminization
A jawline feminization helps align how you look with how you feel inside. Many patients notice both visible improvements in facial balance and deeper emotional relief from gender dysphoria.
- Softer, more feminine appearance: Reduces width and sharp angles in the jawline for a smoother lower face.
- Improved facial balance: Brings harmony between the jaw, chin, and midface for natural-looking proportions.
- Minimal scarring: Intraoral incisions are commonly used, leaving little to no visible scars.
- Emotional relief: Many patients experience reduced gender dysphoria and greater self-confidence.
- Long-lasting results: Bone contouring offers permanent changes compared to temporary treatments.
Procedures Involved in Jawline Feminization
Jawline Feminization is a set of procedures that can be recommended and customized based on your anatomy and preferences. Dr Sajan will suggest the combination of techniques during your consultation, after a proper assessment:
Common Procedures at include:
Jaw Reduction:
For patients with a wide or prominent jawline, the bone along the back corners (mandibular angles) can be reduced or reshaped. This is often done through incisions inside the mouth, leaving no visible scars. In some cases, the masseter muscle is also addressed separately if it adds bulk.
Jaw Implants:
Most jawline feminization patients do not need implants, but in select situations, Dr. Sajan may recommend them for structural support or enhanced contour. When used, permanent screws or small supportive materials create balance while maintaining a natural look.
Chin Reduction:
Because the chin and jawline work together, reducing a strong or elongated chin can round the lower face and keep proportions in harmony after jaw contouring.
Chin Augmentation:
If the chin is recessed, an implant can bring it into balance with the rest of the facial features. This subtle change can enhance the overall feminization of the jawline.
Masseter Botox:
A non-surgical option for patients with enlarged jaw muscles, Botox injections gradually slim the masseter muscle over time. This provides a softer contour without the need for bone surgery.
Jawline Feminization Surgery with Dr Sajan
Every patient’s jawline is different, but the surgery itself follows a simple structure. Based on your plan, Dr. Sajan reshapes the jawline using the techniques best suited to your goals.
Anesthesia & Preparation
The surgery is performed under general anesthesia, ensuring you’re fully comfortable. Once you’re asleep, Dr. Sajan carefully prepares the surgical area with sterile techniques.
Incisions
In most cases, incisions are made inside the mouth. This allows access to the jaw and chin area while keeping scars hidden. External incisions are rarely needed.
Bone & Soft Tissue Contouring
Based on procedures discussed during planning, Dr. Sajan reshapes the jawline and, if needed, the chin or surrounding structures. Multiple techniques may be combined to achieve the right proportions and smooth transitions.
Refinement & Balance
The focus is not only on reducing width or angles, but also on maintaining symmetry and harmony with the rest of your face. Every adjustment is made with the overall profile in mind.
Closing & Recovery Start
Once the contouring is complete, incisions are carefully closed, often with dissolvable stitches inside the mouth. You’ll then move to recovery, where swelling and healing begin.
Although the surgical steps are tailored to each patient, this overall process ensures a natural, balanced result that supports your facial feminization goals.
Recovery & Aftercare
Healing after jawline feminization is a gradual process and requires proper care and support. While recovery varies for each patient, most follow a similar timeline. Dr. Sajan and his team provide detailed instructions and remain available to answer questions throughout your healing.
Typical recovery looks like this:
First week: Swelling and bruising are at their peak. Patients follow a liquid or soft-food diet and use prescribed oral rinses to keep incisions clean.
Weeks 2–3: Swelling starts to improve. Many patients feel comfortable returning to non-strenuous work and daily activities. Diet usually progresses to soft solids.
Weeks 4–6: Continued improvement in swelling and comfort. Patients can resume most normal routines, though heavy chewing and strenuous exercise are still limited.
3–12 months: Final refinements become visible as tissues settle. By 9–12 months, most patients see their long-term results.
Most patients are able to return to daily life within a couple of weeks and continue to see results improve month after month.
