What can I do for jowls at 27? (photos)

You may benefit from a buccal fat removal procedure, as it especially improves lower cheek chubbines, which you seem like you might have, instead of sagging or excess skin. The same fat removed from your cheeks can be used to correct the asymmetry that you mention, as fat injections to the needed areas. Also to improve skin tightness, fractional needle radiofrequency devices such as Scarlet S can help quite a bit.  A physical examination would be needed to make a proper assessment.

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.

Thank you for your question and pictures.  You are a beautiful young girl so you want to try and avoid surgery on your face.  A thread lift could help to improve to asymmetries and lift the jawline making it sharper.  This is performed under a local anaesthetic, minimal downtime, no scars and is only temporary. All The Best

Hello chizzyizzyThere are various facial rejuvenation procedures available, i would advice you consult a board certified plastic  surgeon to talk about your options.

Thanks for writing,Based on your photos, I would be very conservative. Please do not remove fat from your face, one of the cardinal rules in plastic surgery. A minimally invasive lift may offer you the best option.Stephen M. Davis, MD, FACSCertified: American Board of Plastic SurgeryMember: American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons

Hello, and thank you for your question.  Since you are only 27, you should try to avoid invasive surgery. You could consider Silhouette Lift to create better symmetry of your face. The procedures utilizes absorbable threads,which provide an instant lift and then over time, boost collagen production to create a natural, long-lasting result. 

This is a problem that we commonly see in our patients and one of the most popular solutions is performing a thread lift to help improve asymmetries and to "lift" the cheeks and mid face. This is something that can be performed in the office, under local, in 30-60 minutes. The "lift" holds from 1-5 years and people can get really great results with no scarring. You might be a great candidate for this procedure. I would recommend seeing a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who has experience with this procedure to discuss this and other options.I hope this helps!

You're a pretty young woman but I can see what the issue. You absolutely do not need fat removal. Rather it's the support of your skin and fat from the underlying jaw that is weak. Faces and jaws are frequently asymmetrical which explains the extra sagging there. A chin implant would be a great solution. Alternatively you could get a "liquid chin implant" with expert injection of a long lasting filler such as Radiesse which is similar to bone in consistency. If you don't want to increase the size of your chin, the best non surgical skin tightening machine is called Profound, which could be applied to the area to firm up and tighten the skin there. 

There appears to be a pre-jowl sulcus based on the limited photographs, however a full set of facial photographs especially from the side profile are required to make a determination about being a candidate for a chin implant procedure. For many examples of chin implants, please see the link and the video below

Congratulationss for your weight loss. Although you did not provide a profile view it does appear that you have  slightly weak chin and a depression just in front of the jowls which could be improved with a chin/jowl implant. This is an inherited contour which has probably  been present since puberty but has become more obvious with your weight loss.
