Shoulder shortening surgery, also known as Clavicle Reduction, is a procedure performed to reduce shoulder width and create a more balanced upper body contour. By precisely shortening a portion of the clavicle (collarbone), the goal is to narrow the shoulder width and achieve a softer, more natural silhouette.

The contour of the upper body is defined by the proportions between the shoulders, chest, and waist. When the shoulder width is relatively broad, it can give a more angular appearance to the upper body. In such cases, shoulder reduction surgery may be considered to achieve a more balanced proportion.

This procedure may be considered for individuals seeking a softer upper body contour or aiming to create a more harmonious proportion between the chest, waist, and hips.

Shoulder reduction surgery can also be planned in combination with other body contouring procedures, such as:

Breast augmentation

Liposuction / fat grafting

RibXcar

Other body contouring procedures

※ Depending on the patient’s anatomical structure and goals, the procedure may be performed alone or as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for overall body proportion.
