I am in my 30’s and physically active. Seems as though the volume in my face disappearing. I have had two rhinoplasties& septoplasties and really don’t want another rhinoplasty surgery to improve my side profile. But, I do not like how far my nose projects over my lips and chin. Front view when I smile now I appear to have a double chin. Overall, trying to see what my options are for a more balanced and rejuvenated face. Any suggestions and input are greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
Answer: A great option to help define the jawline/chin and to reduce appearance of a double chin would be Morpheus8 treatments 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

Answer: Best treatments to remove submental fat and contour the chin Thank you for your question. There are a couple of things you could do to improve your profile. The first is to remove the submental fat underneath the chin using liposuction. This procedure is performed using local anesthetic and tiny incisions that allow for the insertion of micro-cannulas to remove the fat pocket. Chin liposuction is a one-and-done treatment that produces full results in a single treatment session. Recovery is just a few days. A non-invasive fat procedure could also be performed, such as CoolSculpt Mini. Since your problem is small, this may give you a great result. In addition, you should augment your chin using injectable fillers. By increasing the chin size and improving its shape, you can balance out your facial proportions and create a more aesthetically pleasing profile. Make sure you work with a doctor who is board certified and highly experienced in these treatments to ensure the best possible results.

Answer: Liposuction Chin and neck w/Renuvion and Chin Augmentation Hello and thank-you for your question and photos. You may consider a chin augmentation to improve your jawline combined with liposuction of the sub mental chin and neck. Liposuction of the chin area alone could give improvement as well. Liposuction can be combined with J-Plasma (Renuvion) Cool Helium Plasma for skin tightening of the chin and neck produces consistently good results for appropriate candidates. I would recommend an in person consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Best wishes, Andrew Lyos MD, FACS

Answer: Neck Sagging/Fat - VASERlipo, FaceTite/AccuTite, Morpheus8/Fractora, Neck Lift/Platysmaplasty; Kybella, Thermage, Ultherapy Thank you for your questionFor a double chin, InMode FaceTite with VASERlipo would give you the best result. With significant neck sagging you would need a facelift / neck lift with muscle tightening (platysmaplasty). At the same time, I would recommend lasers (Fraxel, CO2, or Erbium) and microneedling RF (Fractora, Morpheus8, Intensif) to improve the crepey skin and wrinkles. Overall, the neck can be treated with a combination approach: 1. Microneedling and laser treatments for texture 2. Botox, Dysport, Xeomin or Jeuveau to help platysmal bands 3. Intensif, Fractora, or Morpheus8 microneedling RF for crepey skin and lifting 4. Injectable fillers like Belotero, Restylane Silk, and Juvederm Volbella to improve lines and folds 5. Face/neck lifting if sagging is prominent or premature, with or without platysmaplasty (muscle tightening) 6. Renuvion (J-Plasma), ThermiRF, and InMode FaceTite/AccuTite for internal tightening 7. Ultherapy and Thermage for external tightening 8. Regular Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra, or InMode Forma treatments with facials to maintain tightness 9. PDO NovaThreads or Silhouette InstaLift cone threads for lifting and long-term collagen production See an expert for a formal evaluation and to develop a personalized treatment plan based on your individual situation and goals.
