18 Years Old, Granny Face, Jowls?

I have two indents where my jaw meets my chin. I don't have a recessive chin. I have fat that hangs over my jaw making it look like jowls. I am skinny with a fat face. It's unrealistic to say, but I would like to have Megan Fox's chin to jaw ratio. I want to be healed before college starts in the fall, so help me! What could help me: Mittelman's Pre-jowl Implant, Sliding Genioplasty, Mandibular Angle Implant, Malar Cheek Implants, or Buccal Fat Removal (last resort, I don't want to look old).

18 years old with jowls

It appears to me that you may have a bit of a pre-jowl indentation on either side of your chin. I would not recommend fat removal, because when you are older, this loss of fat will make you look worse. Your appearance will continue to change as you age and when you lose some of the fat in your cheeks, it will probably help with the indentations that you have. Because of this fact, I would not recommend doing anything permanent at this time. If you did want to do... more

I think you're pretty. You deffinitely dont look like you have jowels. And I bet when you smile, your cheeks squish upwards and enhance your cheekbones, making you look even prettier. You have beautiful lips, eyes, nose, cheek bones, and side profile. Usually as people age, they lose some fat in their face. If you arent in college yet, youre still younge. So, if youre really unhappy and set on surgery, maybe wait a few years first and see if your cute cheeks become thinner on their own. Maybe try contouring your face with brozer/blush in the meantime. But honestly, you're beautiul.
