Asked By:guntherddr in Paris, Île-de-France, France
I’m 22 and have a pretty thin and long face despite being nearly overweight: high and wide forehead and long and wide jaw as well as pointy chin. My face is like a long rectangle. I’d like to soften as well as shorten and widen my face as I’d like a more feminine look. I’ve considered facial fat transferring but am scared my face will not keep the fat. Would simply reducing my jaw and chin create better proportions or would that make my face look even thinner? I also want to fix smile lines.
