Brazil star Vinicius Jr reportedly undergoes chin cosmetic procedure

Brazilian football sensation Vinicius Jr has reportedly undergone a cosmetic procedure to reshape his chin, weeks after his national team's departure from the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The Real Madrid winger is said to have had a "chin harmonisation procedure" at a clinic in Goiânia, Brazil.

The procedure, performed by dermatologist Dr Alessandro Alarcão, reportedly uses fillers to sculpt the facial contour. In Vinicius Jr's case, the goal was to add more definition to his chin, according to the New York Post.

Speculation regarding the 26-year-old's appearance intensified after new photos circulated on social media. Fans observed what they described as a noticeable change in his facial features, prompting discussions about the reported cosmetic intervention. The timing of the procedure follows Brazil's exit in the Round of 16 at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where Vinicius Jr scored four goals before the team's 2-1 loss to Norway.
