V-Shape Face Contouring

A personalised contouring plan, curated to your facial structure.

What is V-Shape Face Contouring?

A plan, not a package.

"V-Shape Face Contouring" describes a doctor-curated combination of treatments aimed at a more tapered, balanced facial contour — it is not a single fixed procedure. Depending on individual facial structure, Dr Gerald Tan may combine masseter botulinum toxin (to soften a prominent jaw muscle), strategic filler placement, and/or thread techniques, each chosen for what your particular anatomy needs.

Because every face is different, this always begins as a personalised plan decided at consultation, not a fixed package applied the same way to every patient. Dr Tan will explain exactly which elements are recommended for you, and why, before any treatment begins.

How it works

Built around your facial structure, at consultation.

Dr Gerald Tan begins with a detailed assessment of your jawline, facial proportions and skin quality. From there, a personalised plan is proposed — which may draw on masseter botulinum toxin, filler, threads, or a combination of these — specifically to achieve a more tapered contour suited to your face. No two plans are identical, because the goal is a result that looks like a considered, natural extension of your own bone structure, not a generic outcome.

What it treats

Who this is designed for.

01

A prominent jaw muscle

A wider lower face linked to a strong masseter muscle.

02

Contour and proportion

A desire for a more tapered, balanced facial outline overall.

03

Jawline definition

Softened jawline definition that filler or threads may help address.

04

A tailored, multi-element plan

Patients who want a considered combination approach rather than a single fixed procedure.

What to expect

A timeline that depends on your personalised plan.

Day 1–7

Initial swelling, tenderness or bruising is possible depending on which elements are included in your plan, and typically settles within the first week.

Week 2–4

Where masseter botulinum toxin is part of the plan, jaw muscle relaxation typically develops gradually within this window; filler or thread elements settle over a similar period.

Months following

Depending on the combination used, elements of the plan typically last anywhere from several months to around a year or more, and Dr Tan will outline a maintenance rhythm specific to your plan.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions.

Is V-shape face contouring safe?
Each element of a V-shape contouring plan is a doctor-administered procedure in its own right. Dr Gerald Tan assesses your suitability individually for every component and will discuss any risks specific to your health history before treatment.
Does it hurt?
Discomfort depends on which elements make up your plan. Most patients tolerate the individual treatments well, and numbing options are available where relevant.
What's the downtime?
Downtime varies according to your specific plan. Dr Tan will walk you through what to expect for each element included, though most components involve minimal downtime.
When will I see results?
Timelines vary by which elements are part of your plan — some, like masseter botulinum toxin, develop gradually over one to two weeks, while filler or thread elements may show change sooner. Dr Tan will set expectations specific to your plan.
How many sessions will I need?
Because this is a personalised plan rather than a fixed package, the number of sessions depends entirely on what your facial structure and goals call for. Dr Tan will confirm this in detail at consultation.
