Vinicius Jr Reveals Striking New Look After Chin Harmonisation Procedure
Real Madrid forward Vinicius Jr has unveiled a noticeably sharper jawline following a cosmetic chin surgery procedure in Brazil. The 26-year-old Brazilian international, who featured for his country at the 2026 FIFA World Cup before their shock elimination by Norway in the round of 16, was photographed alongside dermatologist Dr Alessandro Alarcao in Goiania, Brazil.
According to Brazilian outlet TMC, Vinicius underwent a chin harmonisation procedure, a treatment that can cost between £3,000 and £14,000 in the UK. The surgery left his chin visibly more defined and sculpted compared to his previous appearance. A viral video of the star signing a shirt further highlighted his new side profile.
Dr Alarcao Expresses Gratitude After Performing Surgery
Dr Alarcao, who flew in from Miami specifically for the operation, shared a message of gratitude on social media, writing: “Thank you, my friend, for your trust. So grateful!” The dermatologist had previously performed cosmetic procedures on Vinicius’s girlfriend, Virginia Fonseca, who has openly shared her own treatments with Dr Alarcao.
The surgery comes amid reports that Vinicius has reconciled with Fonseca, who had announced their split before the World Cup. The pair were recently seen together at the opening of her new gym, and Vinicius left a heartfelt comment under her holiday post from Italy, saying: “I love you.”
Fans React to Vinicius Jr’s New Look on Social Media
Social media erupted with reactions to Vinicius’s refreshed appearance. Many fans praised his new look, while others questioned the necessity of the procedure. The couple, who have dated on and off since 2025, previously drew criticism after being spotted partying on a £1 million superyacht following Brazil’s early World Cup exit and Real Madrid’s trophyless season.
