Facial profile surgery involves a set of personalized procedures aimed at improving the relationship between the different facial features as seen in profile: nose, chin, cheekbones, neck, and jawline.
Each case is assessed individually, taking into account proportions, bone structure, projection, and facial lines. In some patients, rhinoplasty alone is sufficient to improve the profile; in others, a combination of procedures may be necessary to achieve full harmony.
Rhinoplasty, or nose surgery, is one of the most common procedures for enhancing the facial profile. It can be performed to:
When performed with ultrasonic technology, as in the case of Dr. Artur Díaz Carandell, the bones can be reshaped precisely without damaging soft tissues, allowing for a faster recovery and more natural results.
Rhinoplasty doesn’t just enhance the nose—it can transform the overall facial harmony when well integrated with other structures.
Genioplasty, or chin surgery, modifies the projection and shape of the chin to balance the profile. It is especially useful for patients with a receding or disproportionate chin relative to the nose and lower lip.
There are two main types:
Well-indicated genioplasty can be the key to achieving complete facial balance, particularly when combined with rhinoplasty or neck treatments.
Fat accumulation beneath the chin (known as a double chin) blurs the cervicomental angle and alters the profile, even in slim individuals. Submental liposuction removes excess fat and redefines the contour between the neck and jawline.
This procedure can be done on its own or combined with genioplasty or a neck lift.
In addition to rhinoplasty, genioplasty, and submental liposuction, other treatments can enhance profile harmony:
Each technique is adapted to the patient’s facial structure and goals.
Often, success doesn’t lie in a single procedure but in the strategic combination of several. For example:
These combinations address multiple layers (bone, muscle, skin) and create a more defined profile without compromising naturalness.
A well-planned surgical approach considers proportions, expression, and the global facial structure.
The best candidates are individuals who:
Each case must be assessed individually, evaluating the face from all angles and proposing a tailored solution.
