29, 5'9", 137 lbs. - What do I need to have a more balanced face? (Photos)

Neat892179May 16, 2025
I am 29 but I feel that my face’s fullness makes me look older. Could I achieve a sculpted look with buccal fat and jawline sculpting ? I just don’t like how my face is so big overall. Specially when I smile, I am 5’9” and 137 but still feel that my face looks so chubby and my Cervicomental angle is not right. I am just at a loss of what procedures I’d need. Thanks!

Buccal fat removal may result in relative largening of your lower face and make it more boxy. Liposuction of the lower face may be a better option for a V shape.
