Facial Reshaping
Refine the proportions of your nose, chin, ears or jaw with surgical procedures by experienced consultants
Overview
Refine the proportions of your nose, chin, ears or jaw with surgical procedures by experienced consultants
Facial reshaping encompasses the surgical procedures that refine the proportions, definition and balance of your facial features. These procedures are deeply personal: the right outcome is one that looks like a more harmonious version of you, rather than a different face.
At Maison Restorative we offer rhinoplasty (nose reshaping), chin augmentation, ear reshaping surgery, prominent ear correction and split earlobe repair. Each procedure is carried out by an experienced consultant surgeon who will take the time to understand your goals and explain the realistic outcome of the procedure in detail.
The consultation is the most important part of facial reshaping. Computer imaging, careful examination and an honest discussion of what is achievable for your anatomy are all part of the process before any decision is made.

Causes
Why it happens
- Genetics determining facial bone structure and feature shape
- Trauma or injury altering the shape of a feature
- Long-term wear of heavy earrings stretching or splitting the earlobe
- Developmental differences in ear shape or position
- Age-related changes in soft tissue contributing to the perceived shape

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
How long is the recovery from rhinoplasty?
Most swelling and bruising settle within two to three weeks, though the nose continues to refine over the following months as the deeper swelling resolves. Your surgeon will explain the recovery timeline in detail at consultation.
Is chin augmentation done with an implant or filler?
Both are possible. A chin implant provides a permanent change in projection and is appropriate where a structural difference is needed. Dermal filler offers a non-surgical alternative for milder cases and is reversible. The right option depends on your goals and anatomy.
Can a split earlobe be repaired?
Yes. Split earlobe repair is a straightforward outpatient procedure performed under local anaesthetic, with a fine repair that allows for re-piercing once fully healed.
Can prominent or sticking-out ears be pinned back?
Yes. Prominent ear correction, sometimes called ear pinning or otoplasty, repositions the ears closer to the head for a more balanced profile. It is a well-established day-case procedure suitable for both adults and children, and your surgeon will explain the technique and recovery at consultation.
How much does facial reshaping surgery cost?
Pricing depends on the procedure agreed for you and is confirmed in writing at your consultation, with no obligation to proceed.
