I've always had a weak chin/jawline and it's only getting worse.. I've had braces to try and correct my overjet, with little to no improvement. I have a very gummy smile and my face seems droopy. I'm not so self conscious about my smile as I am my chin. I hate my profile! After researching a bit, I want to know which is the quickest, LEAST expensive, most satisfying procedure: - Mentoplasty/Chin implant - Orthognathic surgery - Liposuction of the chin
Answer: Based on your photo, you may be a candidate for Chin Implant Surgery and Neck Liposuction.
I read your note and reviewed your photo, which is somewhat limited.
In select patients, dramatic improvement may be achieved with well-performed Chin Implant and Neck Liposuction Surgery. Surgery takes around an hour, and social activities are typically resumed in around 7 days.
You may benefit from consulting several reputable facial plastic surgeons to see what might be best for you.
Hope this is helpful.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Weak jawline I agree with Dr Epply, who is the authority on facial implants in the world today. A chin implant combined with liposuction will give you the greatest improvement with the least risks, down time, and cost. For the best overall result I would recommend a chin implant combined with an open neck lift. Removal of enlarged glands, deep fat excess, and recontouring of the muscles will provide the most dramatic and long lasting effect. These are the cases I found most satisfying in my own practice. Best wishes, Alexander Anzarut

Answer: Least expensive vs best result
You would certainly benefit from chin augmentation and this combined with some sub-mental liposuction would indeed improve the area. That being said the BEST procedure for you (without examining you) would be a chin implant with a sub-mentoplasty. This would include sub-muscular fat removal and re-draping of the skin. So don't consider just the least expensive option. Consider the option that will actually improve your problem area the best and with the longest term results

Answer: I Don't Have a Jawline?
I think that a chin implant and chin liposuction is a powerful combination that can help define your jawline and chin. These are quicker and less expensive than other methods. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Answer: Chin implant and neck lift When there is extensive fat in the neck is usually deposited in 2 locations. These 2 locations are sub-mental and sub-platysmal. Both fatty deposits will need to be removed with a combination of Liposuction and surgical sculpting of the sub-platysmal fat out from underneath the platysma muscle. A platysma-plasty will be required to give a better jawline definition. A chin implant is inserted in front of the chin to give more projection and increase the definition of the jawline as well. Both procedures are complementary to each other. Both of these procedures are usually performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient surgical procedure.
