I was denied at one office so far for chin lipo because they said I don't have enough fat. I am a normal weight but still genetically have stubborn fat in that area that doesn't reach my goal. I also am not a fan of kybella, do you think I should keep inquiring chin lipo or something else (picture 4 is my goal)
Answer: Genioplasty with Jawline Contouring Unfortunately removing fat will not get you close to your goal. In order to get reasonable, closer results, you would benefit from a genioplasty and jawline contouring. A genioplasty would bring your chin forward (like in the last photo) and would add definition and length to your jawline. This would also help to tighten the skin under your chin. With that, jawline contouring would further define the jawline, creating that sharper contour. Submental liposcultping may also be an option. This will help to breakdown any fat cells under your chin. Even further, you would most likely need jaw angle implants to help create that sharp corner in the back of your jaw. My recommendation would be to start with the genioplasty and jawline contouring. That may get you the results you are looking for.

Answer: Instead of chin liposuction, morpheus8 is a great alternative to help define the chin and jawline. 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 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.

Answer: Jawline Definition / Jawline Enhancement / Facial Sculpting / Facial Contouring -- injectable fillers like Revanesse Versa For a more defined jawline to strengthen your profile (and help prevent the dreaded jawline "jowl" sagging), we use injectable fillers like Revanesse Versa - a filler known to limit swelling and give subtle, soft enhancements - or Radiesse. Using a cannula to limit pain and swelling, we inject on the bone in strategic points to get more lift and shaping, resulting in a more contoured lower face and defined, structured jawline. I would suggest getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer
