I did a soft tissue chin reduction and it ruined my face. How can I fix this? (Photo)

Question

I am a 27 year old female. I did a soft tissue chin reduction in 2021. While it improved my profile, it completely ruined the front view of my face. I have fallen into sever depression and don’t go out without a mask on. The narrowness of my chin is gone.. it is distorted and wide looking which gives me the appearance of jowls and heavy lower face which I never had before. Please help, how can I fix this!?

It would be impossible to give you good advise based on these photos. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in facial rejuvenation surgery would help. Correction with fillers or fat grafts should be considered. Hope this helps. Good luck.

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Good morning, thank you for sharing your photo; According to what has been observed and without being aggressive in the treatment, a chin implant can be used as part of the hyaluronic acid treatment temporarily or permanently and it would improve its appearance and the double chin would no longer be observed. I hope you take this suggestion into consideration.
