I'm not sure if my uneven chin is a problem of a little extra fat on one side or if my jaw is misaligned. When I push the fat up with my finger I can make both sides of my chin even. Are there things I could do other than jaw surgery to even my chin? Zapping the fat on one side away/ adding fat to the higher side?
Answer: Bellafill I'd suggest starting with a filler which is noninvasive and could be done in the office with no downtime. For longer lasting results Bellafill would work best.

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: Facial asymmetry I suggest considering doing nothing.Treating a facial asymmetry almost likely lead to a new asymmetry and possibly lifelong problems.Temporary fillers are safe but I doubt I adding volume is going to correct your asymmetry.facial asymmetry is not only common but is normal.Everyone has an asymmetrical face.Probably much more so than people appreciate.Computer simulated images of symmetrically created faces will demonstrate this repeatedly.The overall shape and contour of the face is primarily made up for the facial skeleton.Trying to compensate for bony asymmetry by manipulating soft tissues will inherently leave it to soft tissue asymmetries.in other words removing fat we're having fat will give you an abnormal fat distribution.This asymmetry will most likely be much worse than what you have now.by the way symmetrical faces look strange and are never seen because they don't exist.Please consider accepung your natural beauty and try to not focus on asymmetry because it supposed to be there.Best,Mats Hagstrom M.D.

Answer: Wondering what to do about uneven chin. Hi, I have performed many Chin Augmentations using dermal fillers or chin implants for over 30 years. From the photos, your chin is has the proper projection however the left side is smaller than the right. Instead of a chin implant, these types of local chin asymmetries are best corrected using a dermal filler. Avoid fat injections as they are far less reliable than an "off the shelf" dermal filler.Hope this helps.

Answer: Chin You look good and from my perspective surgery would not be an option. If you were inclined to do something I would suggest fillers as an office based adjunct.
