Zygoma (cheekbone) reduction is a facial contouring procedure that creates softer, more balanced facial proportions—popular among K-pop stars seeking the ideal face shape.
Who Considers This Procedure?
Candidates typically have:
- Prominent or wide cheekbones
- Angular mid-face appearance
- Desire for softer facial contours
- Face that appears wider than desired
The Procedure
Surgeons access the cheekbone through incisions inside the mouth and near the ear, then carefully reshape the bone to reduce projection and width.
Combined with V-Line
Zygoma reduction is often combined with jaw contouring for comprehensive facial reshaping, creating the coveted V-line from forehead to chin.
Recovery
Significant swelling for 2-4 weeks, with final results visible after 3-6 months as swelling fully resolves.
