Is there anything I can do to improve my face shape? (Photo)

Hello JN. You have a very attractive shape already, but if we may make one suggestion, you are losing some volume under the eyes and around the mouth. We use Restylane under the eyes and around the mouth you are a candidate for dermal fillers like Restylane and a biostimulator called Sculptra. All would be great for softening contours in these areas. On the other hand, if you believe your face to be too chubby already, you may not want to take any fillers on.

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.

Hello, and thank you for providing photos along with your question. You have a very attractive face shape, but you might benefit from non-surgical procedures to rejuvenate your appearance. Filler under the eyes can refresh your eye area, and a combination of Botox and filler in the mid and lower face can give you a subtle and natural-looking lift.

You may also explore lasers and RF microneedling (e.g., Profound RF) to stimulate collagen production for a tightening effect. The best way to determine your eligibility for any procedure is to schedule an in-person consultation with a reputable board-certified facial plastic surgeon. Such experts will have the skills, knowledge of the most advanced injection techniques, as well as artistry and knowledge of facial aesthetics, harmony, and proportion, helping you achieve the most natural-looking results. During your consultation, your surgeon can assess your facial profile, customize the best procedure plan, and ensure the best possible outcome.

I think you have a very nice shape to your face both at rest and while smiling. If anything, you may consider adding subtle volume to your mid face at the malar area. This can be achieved with both filler (hyaluronic acid) or fat grafting.
