33 years old - FaceTite ruined my face contours, how can I fix this? (Photos)

Question

Hello! I am a 33 year old female who got facetite at 30.5 The first year, it looked great. But I slowly realized that by melting the fat towards the back of my jawline and focusing on just the jawline, he created an awful ‘bubble’ effect in my cheek when I smile where the fat abruptly stops on my face. I wanted this treatment for lower facial fullness, not a sharper jawline. In a way, it had visually made my lower face fat look more prominent. I have a very low BMI, as An FYI.

This is a great question and you could always have your provider go back in (doing another FaceTite) to smooth out the area by removing the unwanted fat tissue and/or doing Morpheus8 treatments, 3 a year. Which will help build your own collagen and elasticity to help tighten and tone the jawline. Good luck!

It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello Meow,
Sorry to hear of your complication with Face-tite.  I would treat you strategically with Sculptra to replace your lost volume.  Fat transfer can be used, but I find that Sculptra is much more predictable, and is a long term answer to your concerns.  Please feel free to contact my for a virtual or inperson consultation at your conveniece.  Be well.
