Dr. Lee’s background in oral and maxillofacial surgery makes him the perfect choice if you are interested in jaw surgery. Jaw surgery is a facial cosmetic plastic surgery procedure that can enhance the jawline or reduce the size of your jaw for a less square look in your chin area. Jaw surgery can improve your facial proportions and give your face an overall softer, less angular look. In this procedure, the jaw is shaved down without disrupting your natural bite. Both procedures can make a major difference in the appearance of your face and are offered at both Dr. Harrison Lee’s NYC (Manhattan, New York) and Beverly Hills (Los Angeles, California) plastic surgery practices.
Please note: For FFS Patients – In addition to the forehead and eye area, the most significant characteristic of a feminine face is determined by the shape of the jaw. A prominent lower jaw gives the face a square, masculine look. Jaw reduction surgery results in a substantially more feminized appearance.

Jaw Reduction Surgery
Though no two cases are alike, Dr. Harrison Lee’s approach to jaw reduction may involve a combination of reduction of the boney chin and soft tissues overlying the bone. The incision is hidden in a natural crease under the chin and the surgical scar will become (in most cases) imperceptible. During your consultation, Dr. Lee will determine which type of surgery is best to achieve your specific desired results.

Jaw Augmentation Surgery
Typically, jaw augmentation surgery is achieved with chin implants which are made in varying degrees of shape and size (which look incredibly realistic and natural on any face).
