The bottom half of my face used to be more oval and it's become more square over the years. Is there any way I could reduce the size and make it look more oval without surgery?

Answer: Nonsurgical Face lift Hi Hannahr123, thanks for your question! There are many different non-surgical options for improving the contour of your face. Ultherapy and fillers (injections) are a non-invasive way to improve the look of the cheek bones and jaw line, filling in some of the hollow areas and smoothing out the skin. Minimally invasive procedures such as J-plasma or a threadlift are other options that require local anesthesia and an in-office procedure. I recommend that you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon for more information. Best of luck!

Answer: Non surgical procedures to slim face Thank you for your question regarding nonsurgical procedures to slim the face. There are a few modalities that may help you achieve a slimmer lower half of your face. The first is the use of Botox in the masseter muscles. These muscles can become large if you area grinding or clenching your teeth. By relaxing the muscles with Botox, over time they will relax and diminish in size. This will result in a smoother and less sharp angle of the jawline. Secondly, fillers can also be used strategically ,and in addition to the Botox, can help contour the jawline to the shape you desire. Lastly, some are using Kybella (off label) to melt fat in the lower face (jowls). This can also be used in addition to the other treatments discussed above. To be sure, see two or more experienced, licensed and board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.
