In addition to Jawline Contouring with fillers, our team at the Yuveo Clinic Düsseldorf offers Jawline surgery with mandibular angle implants.
You benefit from the fact that the surgical results are permanent and the procedure leaves no external scars, as access is via the mouth.
Patients with a proportionally small lower jaw, but also those who need a correction after previous jaw surgery, can benefit from this therapy.
As always, our plastic surgeons will be happy to advise you and explain the details to you.

Silicone implants for the lower jaw
Combination treatment
Jawline operation
The reconstruction of the mandibular angle with bilaterally placed implants is usually performed via an incision on the mucous membrane of the lower lip in the mouth.
Placed laterally at the angle of the lower jaw silicone implants (in special cases also consisting of other materials) are often used for augmentation in order to achieve a lasting effect. The associated operation is somewhat more complex than injections with hyaluronic acid.
Thanks to their flexible consistency, we can customize the implants for mandibular augmentation.
They are placed laterally at the angle of the lower jaw via the incision described above.
During the operation, our Yuveo team takes care not to damage adjacent structures such as nerve tracts in the immediate vicinity.
Frequently asked questions about treatment
Who can benefit from surgery with mandibular implants?
People who want more harmony in their facial proportions benefit from this procedure, especially if the lower jaw is not very pronounced. In addition, irregularities after oral surgery (class II operations) can be concealed very well.
What procedures can implant treatment of the mandibular angle be combined with?
When mandibular and chin implants are combined, congenitally small mandibles can be brought to more normal dimensions.
An abnormally small chin can be corrected by enlarging the chin vertically with a lengthening horizontal bone augmentation and augmenting the chin and lower jaw with implants.
What is the alternative to surgery?
We offer Jawline Contouring with hyaluronic acid as an alternative.
What complications can occur?
General complications such as infections, fluid effusions and bruising can occur.
Thanks to the use of tested silicone implants, there is a very low risk of infection, the rate of misplacement is low and a high level of patient satisfaction has been achieved with the corresponding procedures.
As surgery is performed via the oral cavity, our Düsseldorf team recommends that you maintain good oral hygiene after the operation.
