I feel like I have a very flat face with no definition. I am considering getting chin filler if I am a candidate. As for my very weak jawline, I'm unsure what to do as I'm scared it will look nice from the side but wider from the front me I feel my face is already too wide. I want more of a heart shaped face. I especially dislike my jawline from the right profile. I would also like more definition for my cheeks. What would be the best treatment for this?
Answer: Facial Slimming — Masseter Botox, Facetite/Renuvion J Plasma, Buccal Fat Pad Removal, Fillers to sculpt the Cheek/Jawline/Chin This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. Buccal fat pad gives slimming not symmetry. Masseter botox will make you slimmer and make the jawline more loose. Fillers help give shaping and contouring. If you want perfect or close to perfect symmetry you need maxillofacial surgery or implants customized. I suggest seeing an expert to go through all options. Most of my younger clients use fillers to give them shaping especially on the cheeks, jawline, and chin which make the face look more slim and tight; and threads such as PDO or Instalift can build collagen and support the facial shaping and skin looseness over time, slowing down the aging process and given the face a more “snatched” look; and morpheus8 or PiXel8 deep microneedling RF can tighten crepe skin especially on the neck and jawline and is great for long term tightening of the full face, neck and chest; its often used to give the face a slimmer more sculpted look because it tightens the skin and gives lift. an early face lift can be performed as well even in younger clients if they want a different facial shape, maxillofacial surgery with bone breaking or shaving can also be done. For facial slimming a combination of treatments are always needed. Options include: 1. Buccal fat pad removal to reduce fat on the lower face 2. Factite or Renuvion/J Plasma to tighten the lower face, jawline, and chin to reduce fat and give the jawline and neck tightening and shaping. 3. Botox to the masseter to reduce the muscular size of the jaw giving the face an illusion of being more slender 4. Fillers to the jawline, chin, cheeks, temples and brow help to shape the face and make it more angled and defined Always use at home derma rolling (see link to Emerageskin x anteageMD roller plus stem cells/hyaluronic acid ampules) and peels like emeragecosmetics enlighten or aerify that can be used to improve skin quality and tighten the skin while improving wrinkles, pigmentation, acne, and Melasma. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Heart shape Hi Ochiexx, An experienced plastic surgeon or injector will be able to help guide you to some solutions that would achieve your goals. No part of the face should be evaluated in isolation (i.e. the chin has relations to the rest of your face). That being said, chin filler can help to rebalance the facial relationships. If done properly, it should not make a face appear wider from the front. Cheek augmentation with filler is a common way to more clearly define the cheek bones and can help with achieving a more 'heart-shaped face'. Any type of fat removal to achieve those goals would likely be along the lines of buccal fat pad reduction. This is not for everyone. You should be evaluated by an experienced plastic surgeon, who can guide you through a possible combination of treatments that gets you to your goals. Best,

Answer: Option to Get More Defined Face Hi and thank you for your question! I highly recommend consulting an experienced non-surgical cosmetic doctor as there are many treatment options that can greatly help. Doing fillers in chin as well as jawline can certainly help. Also doing fillers in mid and upper face (cheeks and temples) can help with creating more of a heart-shaped face. To help with making the jaw slimmer, you can also considered jaw slimming with Botox injection in the masseter muscles that can greatly help. As you can see, there are many options. I hope it helps and good luck!

Answer: Facial Definition Good Morning! Fillers can be a great option to improve facial contour, volume, and harmony. As you know, they don't last more than 12 months so upkeep is necessary and multiple syringes may be needed to get a substantial result. As for the chin, a product like Radiesse works well to stimulate collagen. It can be placed to create narrowness on the front view. To create more of a heart-shaped face, adding volume to the cheeks, especially on the sides, can help quite a bit. More firm products like Lyft or Voluma are my go-to. If you're looking for lasting changes, facial implants provide long-term results. Best of luck!
