What are my options to get a fuller lower face? (Photo)

Thank you for your question and for sharing your photographs. The redistribution of volume from the lower part of the cheeks to the mid-face, along with improved contouring of the jawline, aligns well with the goals of a deep plane facelift combined with buccal fat reduction. This approach can be further enhanced by transposing the removed buccal fat towards the cheekbone area to improve mid-face volume and definition.

The most effective way to evaluate whether a facelift and buccal fat surgery would be a suitable intervention for you is to assess the appearance of your face while lying down completely flat. Looking in a mirror in this position, rather than relying on selfies, provides a more accurate representation of how these procedures might impact the contours and proportions of your face.

If you would like to explore this further, a consultation would allow for a detailed assessment and discussion of your specific goals and anatomy.

You may consider a lip lift. A lip lift does 4 things: shortens the distance between your nose and upper lip, increases the mucosa of the upper lip, increases the incisor show and pulls up the corners. This will correct the downturned mouth that you do not like.

Best Wishes,

Hello; For looseness in marionette, jowl and nasolabial areas; best solution is; the incision mark is also in the hair; it is an endoscopic midface lift. In this way, jowl prominence, marionette lines and cheek pressure in the nasolabial fold; decreases and cheek tissues; rises for upwards.
