Mini V-line surgery
What is mini V-line surgery?
The surgery turns a dull front chin into a slim one.
The front chin surgery is enough to give the V-line effect for a round front chin without an excessive square jaw.
The surgery gathers the front chin, adjusts the amount of bone resection depending on an individual and slightly moves the position of the chin to make a beautiful chin in harmony with the entire face.

Making a beautiful front chin while nobody knows, absorbable pins and screws.
Making a beautiful front chin while nobody knows, absorbable pins and screws.
When fixing the bones with the absorbable pins and nuts, it works for 3 months after the surgery but they begin dissolving on the 4th month when the bones are in place and disappear after 1 year. They disappear after the complete bone union and have no possibility of causing functional problems for talking or eating food.
Additionally, the surgery does not need a secondary surgery to remove fixation pins and nuts and you can rest assured that they are not identified by X-ray.
VIEW provides the option of using either the absorbable pins and nuts or conventional pins and nuts for surgery and the decision on whether absorbable pins can be used is made after consultation.
Special features of VIEW’s front chin surgery
The bone scalpel is an ultrasonic device which cuts the bones by responding only to the bone tissues.
It has less vibration within 0.5mm enabling a very precise surgery, protects nearby blood vessels and nerves by responding only to bones, causes less tissue damages and bleeding and provides quick recovery.

Mini V line vs. Front chin (chin tip) surgery
The effect of the mini V line and chin tip surgery is different.

Mini V line
This is a surgery that cuts the chin into a T shape avoiding the neural gland, places the bone chips in place, shaves off the bones to a proper length and firmly fixes them to make a smooth chin line.

Chin tip surgery
This surgery cuts the tip of the lower chin bone in a horizontal direction. Thus, it can reduce the chin tip length or move the position of the jaw bone forward or backwards but cannot gather the dull tip of the chin into a slim line.
If you feel uncomfortable about performing T osteotomy, this procedure cuts the square jaw in a long curve shape to the front jaw for a slimmer chin but its reduction effect is less effective than T osteotomy.
Why VIEW Clinic’s facial contouring surgery has been receiving the spotlight


The 3D CT irradiates the X-ray into the human body and reconstructs the image with the computer to display the internal status with multidimensional images.
Unlike the existing X-ray image, the technique shows more than 3,000 times higher precision and thoroughly analyzes the size, location, depth, length and width of the facial bone to provide a customized operation plan with the operation method and range.
Furthermore, safe surgery is performed by precisely understanding the location of neural glands to prevent nerve damages.
