I'm 21 years old (I look young) and would love a lifted look to my lower cheek area (jowl area) because I have small lips which accentuates that and also makes me have a more baby-like appearance. Would botox in masseter or cheekbones help?
Answer: Facial evaluation Hello and thank you for your question. The best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation. With that being said, based on your photographs, the best shape and contour could be achieved with voluma injection into your cheekbones rather than botox. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Botox for Beautification! Hello Olivia, You are very pretty, I do not see any volume loss or sagging in any area based on your photo. The facial beauty and symmetry can be mathematically calculated based on Da Vinci's concept, known as "phi" ( the golden ratio) which describes facial proportions, by following that principle one can precisely restore the symmetry and contour the face with injectables such as fillers and Botox. It is best that you are evaluated in person by an expert aesthetic physician/surgeon. Best Wishes Dr. Shanthala

Answer: Lower face To lift the jowls and add cheekbones it would be more of a filler that would provide that and possible in the marionettes to soften the jowl area. What I would recommend is using voluma for this. from your picture you do have a bit of a square jaw and to have more of a heart shaped lower face it would be botox in the masseter muscle to help soften this.

Answer: Botox for Lift Botox is typically used to provide a gentle lift around the eyes and eyebrow region. Botox could be a very powerful tool to make these changes and give a great result but the keen aesthetic eye of a board certified facial plastic surgeon who really understands what her goals are is key. The best thing you can do is to meet with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon for a consultation. It’s important that a doctor examine your face in person so he or she can get a feel for how you look from all angles and recommend the best treatment for you.
