19 years old. What is the best solution for a more defined jaw line? (Photos)

I think that you can have liposuction to help create a better jawline based upon the pictures.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Kybella is a non-surgical option for your neck. It is an injection that has been recently approved by the FDA to help improve the appearance of fullness associated with the submental (neck) fat in adults.



During a Kybella treatment, the neck is first cleaned and numbed with topical lidocaine. A pattern is drawn on the neck and the product is injected into the fat pad - dissolving the fat. The body then absorbs the fat over several weeks.







Ideal patients, like you, are young, have fullness of their anterior neck, and have good quality skin.

Effective surgical alternatives for submental fat removal include liposuction and direct excision.







A detailed examination will help delineate the best option. Consultation with a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery would be the next best step.

You may benefit from KYBELLA injections to remove the submental fat, as well as botox injections to the masseter muscle to give more definition to your jaw line. Best to see a board certified plastic surgeon who takes the time to properly examine you and give you the best recommendations for you!
