The jaw and chin are what a stranger reads first in your outline: the width below your ears, the corners of your jaw, the length from lip to chin point. Jaw and chin contouring narrows the angle, shaves the jawline forward and reshapes the chin, almost always through the mouth, with no scar on your face. What sets the limit is the nerve to your lower lip running through the bone, and a numb lip and chin for the first months is a normal part of healing.
It's precise bone work on the part of your face you eat, talk and smile with, so it's worth choosing your team carefully. These are the best jaw and chin feminization clinics in Bangkok in 2026: who will operate on you, the hospital behind them, how long you'll be in hospital and in the city, and what to ask before you book.
How we rank Bangkok jaw and chin feminization clinics
I've spent over ten years coordinating international patients through Bangkok hospitals: visiting the clinics, sitting in on consultations, comparing treatment plans and seeing people through recovery. Lower-face work is where you want a team that plans around your scan, so this list ranks on how central facial feminization is to the team, whether they do the whole lower third (jaw contouring, genioplasty and implants), who operates, the hospital you wake up in and how clear they are about your stay.
Every fact comes from each provider's own website, checked 12 October 2026, with sources on its profile. No provider pays to be listed or to move up.
The best jaw and chin feminization clinics in Bangkok, ranked
-
1
Kamol Hospital is where I'd start for the lower face, because facial feminization is what this hospital does and your jaw is planned with the rest of it. Jaw and chin work goes both ways here, reduction or augmentation, so the plan follows your face rather than a single technique. Dr. Kamol Pansritum has more than 10,000 FFS procedures behind him by the hospital's count, and Dr. Sanipreeya Yingtaweesithikul operates alongside him on the face. You wake up in a JCI-accredited hospital with anaesthesiologists on staff, X-ray on site and an 11-bed recovery room, then recover at K Garden, its own apartments.

How to choose your jaw and chin surgeon in Bangkok
-
1
Send a straight-on photo and both profiles
Width shows from the front and chin length shows in profile, in the same plain light. Clench your jaw in the mirror first: if the muscle hardens under your fingers, some of your width is muscle rather than bone. Mention it when you write in, because it shapes the plan.
-
2
Ask for the jaw and chin split
Angle reduction, shaving along the jawline and chin work are three separate steps. The smoothest result treats them as one line, since the angle on its own can leave a step. Ask what your written plan covers, whether the chin is a genioplasty or an implant, and how many nights you'll spend in hospital.
-
3
Ask about the nerve
Ask how they decide how much bone comes off and what stops them. An experienced surgeon will talk you through your scan and the nerve to your lower lip, and what to expect from numbness in the early months.
-
4
Plan for about two weeks
PAI plans ten to twelve days for jaw contouring; Bangkok Plastic Surgery two weeks of follow-up. You'll be on soft food for a while with stitches inside your mouth, so stock up on things you can drink and book somewhere near the hospital.
This page is information, not medical advice: your surgeon and your scan decide how much of your jaw and chin can safely change.
Jaw and chin feminization in Bangkok: common questions
How long will I be in hospital after jaw and chin surgery in Bangkok?
One to two nights. PAI keeps you one night, Masterpiece one to two, and Yanhee two nights after jaw and chin contouring.
How long do I need to stay in Bangkok?
About ten days to two weeks for jaw and chin work on its own: PAI plans at least ten to twelve days, and Bangkok Plastic Surgery two weeks of follow-up. As part of a bigger FFS bundle, plan on two to three weeks. Your surgeon will confirm when you can fly.
Will there be a scar on my face?
Usually not. Jaw and chin contouring is almost always done through incisions inside the mouth. See jaw and chin contouring for how it's done.
How are these jaw and chin clinics ranked?
On how central facial feminization is to the team, whether they cover the whole lower third, who operates, the hospital behind them and how clear they are about your stay, from over ten years of coordinating patients through Bangkok hospitals. Every fact is checked against each provider's own website. No provider pays to be listed or to move up.
