Real Madrid and Brazil winger Vinicius Junior has gone through a cosmetic surgery to reshape his chin. This happened a few weeks after Brazil left the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

On Tuesday, the New York Post reported that the 26-year-old had a "chin harmonisation procedure" at a clinic in Goiânia, Brazil. The surgery was done by dermatologist Dr Alessandro Alarcão.

The report explained that the procedure “uses fillers to sculpt the facial contour.” It also mentioned that Vinicius wanted “to add more definition to his chin.”

Fans started talking about changes in Vinicius’ looks after new pictures of him appeared on social media. Many noticed what they called a clear change in his facial features.

This surgery happened shortly after Brazil’s Round of 16 exit at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Vinicius scored four goals before Brazil was knocked out 2-1 by Norway.
