I'm 21 with a bad babyface that has made me very insecure about not looking masculine enough. Luckily I've been able to grow a beard sufficient enough to hide the cheeks, but I don't want to hide for the rest of my life, and one day I might have to shave for a job or something. What can be done to achieve a slimmer lower face and defined jawline? Thanks!
Answer: Babyface Cure For Men I am all too familiar with this problem and, while your beard is covering your cheeks so I can't really see them in the photos you submitted, I think I get it.Buccal fat removal is certainly one of your options and will help with a subtle improvement to your facial contour. That said, it is also a rather subtle change. Many of my patients in NYC want something a bit more impactful.Cheek Liposuction has become very popular in my office for patients who want a more profound change. So, if it's true that you really do have large cheeks, you should consider this as well.Good Luck!

Answer: Buccal Fat Pad and Chin Lipo Suggestion When a patient has a full and round face and despite weight loss the fullness persist or if the patient is in his normal weight and the chipmunk faces has stayed all the time, a bichectomy or buccal fat pad removal is useful. It´s true that with aging the buccal fat pad tends to diminish in volume do to atrophy, but if the volume is excessive a bichectomy will not hollow the cheek overtime. Many patients are happy with the results, a proper selection is a very important manner. Usually the procedure takes less than 10 min and you can go homethe same day. You'll be able to go back to work on the 3rd day post-op but 1 week off would be more comfortable. Combining this with chin lipo has a very powerful result. This will improve your jawline making it look masculine and chiseled.

Answer: Buccal Lipectomy Great question! Yes a buccal lipectomy can help improve your facial shape by shrinking down the lower cheek region. By doing this, the jawline and the cheeks become more defined and contoured. Another treatment to think about is Botox to the posterior jawline as this will also help slim the face from a more squared to a more oval appearance on the frontal views. However, it is always best to have an in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon so that your goals are reviewed and the best treatment recommended Best of luck and hope this information helps! - Dr. Roger Tsai @DrRogerTsai Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Lower Face Slimming and Definition A buccal fat removal procedure can help slim the lower face if the patient is suitable. It can also help create more definition in that area as well. Fillers or implants can also provide enhancement and more definition in the jawline which can help masculinize the face. It is recommended to consult a board certified facial plastic surgeon and discuss your options after a physical examination.Hope this helps,Ali Rıza Öreroğlu, MD FEBOPRASEuropean and Turkish Board Certified Aesthetic, Plastic and Reconstructive SurgeonIstanbul, Turkey
