How Do I Improve the Hourglass Shape of my Face? (photo)

Jawline/Cheek reduction can be complex so be careful. There are 4 anatomic layers that can contribute to a full cheek or "hourglass" wide lower face: the Fat, the Masseter muscle, the Parotid salivary gland, and the Jawbone. Options exist to reduce each of these layers, but often it is better to augment your cheekbones higher in your face in order to restore a more balanced look.

Aesthetically speaking the photos show flat cheeks, excess subcutaneous (I call it baby fat) and a weak chin. Removing the buccal fat is not recommended as it can cause facial indentations making the face appear gaunt when you are in you 30's. You can have Cheek Augmentation with micro-liposuction to remove the subcutaneous fat in the face along with Chin Augmentation using a Chin Implant. These would create a naturally more attractive and feminine face IMHO.... more

There are some modest improvements you can make to your facial shape but jawline reduction/shaving is not one of them. You may consider partial buccal fat removal and perioral liposuction to reduce the convexity between the cheek bones and the jawline.
