Summary
Injections in the jaw area or other parts of the face to achieve a V-shaped face for cosmetic purposes are prohibited. The fatwa states that even though the procedure involves no plastic surgery, any method that alters the shape of the face falls under the prohibition of changing Allah's creation. Cosmetic treatment that alters the creation for beauty is haram, while medical need is an exception, as explained by Ibn Hajar in the cited discussion.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Suntikan pada kawasan rahang agar kelihatan runcing atau segala suntikan pada bahagian wajah agar muka berbentuk V (V-Shape face) bagi tujuan kecantikan adalah dilarang.
