The basics
What is facial bone contouring surgery?
Facial bone contouring reshapes the underlying facial skeleton — the cheekbones (zygoma), jaw angle (mandible), chin and, in two-jaw surgery, the position of both jaws — rather than the skin or soft tissue. That is what makes the change structural and permanent, unlike fillers or fat grafting which add temporary volume on top of the bone.
Korea became the world reference for these procedures because of sheer volume and specialisation: Gangnam clinics plan each case on 3D-CT imaging, operate with on-site anesthesiologists, and refine techniques across thousands of cases a year. Mild width from muscle (not bone) can sometimes be treated non-surgically — a consultation with imaging tells you which category you are in before you spend anything.
