V-line surgery in Seoul — cost, method and recovery

Jaw angle and chin contoured together for a slim, tapered lower face. At MOOi Plastic Surgery Clinic, minutes from Gangnam Station.

Why V-line prices vary

A V-line quote depends on how much is done: the jaw angle alone, the angle with the chin, or both with cortical shaving to slim the front-view width. Each step adds operating time and complexity, which is why the guide price is a range rather than one figure.

Which technique suits which jaw

A prominent angle seen from the side is reduced at the angle. A wide jaw from the front needs cortical shaving as well. A long, continuous curved cut from angle to chin avoids leaving a second angle behind.

Planning your stay

Plan 10–14 days in Seoul. Swelling is at its peak in the first days; the final contour settles over three to six months.

V-Line Surgery at MOOi Plastic Surgery Clinic

A wide or square jaw can make the face look heavy. V-line surgery reduces and reshapes the jaw angle and, where needed, the chin, to create a smooth, tapered lower-face line.

Because it changes bone structure, it is planned carefully with 3D-CT so the result is safe, balanced and natural.
