I have an odd side profile, as my neck seems to connect to my chin and not the hinge of my jaw. This was present even when I was at my lowest weight 3 years ago. I’m currently working on losing weight but unsure if that would improve much about my jaw and side profile.
Answer: A combination of Morpheus8 and Ultherapy can help provide a lift and tighten the skin to enhance jawline and chin area 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: 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

Answer: Neck liposuction Blunting of the cervicomental angle can be cause by fat or muscle. In younger patients it is generally fat. Neck liposuction would help to restore a more acute cervicomental angle and thus improve your profile

Answer: Chin liposuction Dear Fabulous4775, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from chin liposuction. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Lack of jawline definition to neck anatomy The photograph demonstrates recessive chin profile, and fat deposits in the neck located above and below the platysma muscle itself. Consider placement of a chin implant to augment the chin forward and a necklift procedure to remove the fat deposits located above and below the platysma muscle itself, which also includes a platysma-plasty.
