Ever since I was quite young, my face has been relatively flat from the sides and lacks a defined jawbone. I'm a healthy weighted individual (59kg at 167cm) and at my slimmest my face only seemed to look worse, and I've always wanted to get something done but to the untrained eye, I don't know what is actually WRONG with my face. I just know that I don't like my cheeks, chin and jaw.

Answer: What can be done to improve my flat, undefined facial profile? Hi, I have performed many facial shaping and contouring procedures over the past 30 years. From the photos, your cheeks are very flat (concave) anteriorly (in the front), there is some excess facial fat in front and below the cheeks and the chin is quite weak. These combine to create an elongated, oval shaped face. Following the beauty principles outlined in my book on face and body beauty, women look the most feminine, youthful and attractive with heart shaped faces. Heart shaped faces have cheeks that are full and round in the front. Cheek augmentation with a dermal filler or using cheek implants for a permanent enhancement will create full, round cheeks that will feminize the entire face. I would combine facial liposuction to remove the excess fat for further cheek contouring. A weak chin creates an imbalance making the nose appear larger, the mid face top heavy and the lower face look short that de-emphasizes the lips and allows early formation of a double chin. Chin augmentation using a chin implant will add projection to the chin creating harmony and balance to the lower face. I have found that placement of a silastic chin implant, through a small curved incision under the chin (also allows excess skin removal) to be very safe, quick and highly effective.Hope this helps.

Answer: What to do about relatively undefined face The mid face lacks definition .Cheek implants can help here. In the lower face possibly an implant with or without liposuction would give definition.Make an appointment with an experienced plastic surgeon who will perform imaging on the face to determine what can be done to satisfy your aesthetic goals.
