Kitty 12360,Thanks for your pictures. This is an interesting question. It appears that you do not like your chin when you have muscle activit,y particularly smiling. I think the concept gets missed by both patients and plastic surgeons like that we can improve areas aesthetically due to "dynamic activity" (i.e., movement). Plastic surgeons really take care of what I call us "static" (i.e., non-movement) concerns. Whether that's their face, breasts or tummys, we can make these areas look better at rest. I say all of this to make you aware that , I don't know if there is a tried and true method to improve the way your chin looks during activity. Certainly seek the opinions and in person consultations of various board-certified plastic surgeons.Best wishes,ESJ,#TruthAndTransformation.
Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon
We don’t make an assessments of the face in a dynamic state.We don’t make a assessments of the face in a dynamic state.We make assessments when the facial expressions are neutral without contracting muscles of facial expression.The purpose of muscles of facial expression is to express emotional states.S surgeons we can’t really change or should not change the implications that come with contracting muscles of facial expression.The exception to this is weakening muscles around the eyes to prevent wrinkles using paralyzing drugs like Botox.If you want an assessment, then repost using standard facial pictures.To get an understanding of how plastic surgeons make assessments with pictures look at how we take it before and after pictures.If you want an accurate assessment, then schedule in person consultations with plastic surgeons or oral surgeons in your community.Issues related to the shape and size of the mandible is treated by both specialties.Best,Mats Hagstrom, MD
Both the solutions that you mentioned would improve the aesthetics of your chin. Sometimes I will perform a genioplasty alone. In other cases, the chin tuck is necessary to reduce the chin pad. The problem of a deep mentolabial fold is usually associated with a short chin. I would recommend a CT...
I would not worry about lidocaine toxicity with chin and neck liposuction. The amount of tumescent anesthesia that is used is minimal for the chin and neck. This problem occurs with body liposuction. The main concern should be the type of technique that the surgeon will use to secure the implant...
The best treatment options are generally treatments that address the primary problem.In your case, these issues all stem from having mandible that is relatively small in relationship to your maxilla.Growing a bigger mandible is not really possible. Extending the mandible is possible, but is an...
