What procedure(s) would help fix my weak jaw/chin? (photo)

Juvederm Volux is a robust filler great for adding definition to the jawline. A firm filler used along the jaw and chin will define your mandibular angle, giving a stronger and more masculine appearance.

it is difficult to make a recommendation based on your solitary profile photo. It is clear, however, that you have adequate chin projection. In that regard, I would not recommend chin implant surgery. It may be best to consult with several reputable facial plastic surgeons so you can have your concerns addressed specifically. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Liposuction under local can really give a much more defined jawline and is so easy to undergo. You will be so glad you did it.

Addressing concerns about a weak jaw or chin can involve several potential procedures, and the best approach depends on your specific facial structure and aesthetic goals. Here are some options you might consider discussing with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon or maxillofacial surgeon:

Chin Augmentation (Genioplasty): This procedure involves placing an implant specifically designed to enhance the chin's projection and balance your facial profile. It's a common choice for individuals seeking to improve the appearance of a weak chin.

Jawline Contouring: For more comprehensive enhancement, jawline contouring may involve implants that extend along the jawline to provide a more defined and structured appearance. This can address concerns that a chin implant alone might not fully resolve.

Orthognathic Surgery: If the jaw's alignment or structure is significantly affecting your facial aesthetics or function, orthognathic surgery might be recommended. This procedure involves repositioning the jaw bones to achieve better alignment and balance.

Non-Surgical Options: For those seeking less invasive options, dermal fillers can be used to enhance the chin and jawline temporarily. While not permanent, this approach can provide a preview of surgical results.

3D Imaging and Consultation: Many surgeons offer 3D imaging techniques during consultations to help visualize potential outcomes of different procedures, which can be very helpful in making a decision.

I recommend scheduling a consultation with a qualified specialist who can assess your facial structure and discuss these options in detail, ensuring the chosen procedure aligns with your aesthetic goals and expectations.

FaceTite is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that utilizes radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis (RFAL) to tighten skin and contour the face and neck. It's often considered a less invasive alternative to a traditional facelift. Here's a breakdown of what FaceTite entails:

How FaceTite Works:

Radiofrequency Energy: A small probe is inserted under the skin through tiny incisions. This probe emits radiofrequency (RF) energy.
Internal and External Heating: A handpiece with an external electrode moves over the skin's surface, working in tandem with the internal probe. The RF energy flows between these two, heating both the deeper layers of the skin and the subcutaneous fat.
Fat Liquefaction (Lipolysis): The heat helps to liquefy small pockets of fat.
Skin Contraction and Tightening: The controlled heating stimulates the existing collagen fibers to contract, leading to immediate skin tightening. It also promotes the production of new collagen over time, resulting in further tightening and improved skin texture.
Fat Removal (Optional): In some cases, the liquefied fat can be gently suctioned out through the same small incisions, similar to liposuction (this is sometimes referred to as Radiofrequency Assisted Liposuction - RFAL).
What FaceTite Can Treat:

FaceTite is typically used to address:

Loose or sagging skin on the lower face and neck.
Jowls along the chin and jawline.
Double chin (submental fat).
Undefined jawline.
Descended fat in the face and neck.
Crepey neck skin.
Benefits of FaceTite:

Minimally Invasive: Requires only small incisions, leading to less scarring compared to a facelift.
Less Downtime: Recovery is generally shorter than with a surgical facelift. Most people can return to normal activities within a few days.
Skin Tightening and Fat Reduction: Addresses both loose skin and small fat deposits simultaneously.
Collagen Stimulation: Promotes long-term skin tightening and improvement in texture.
Relatively Safe: When performed by a qualified and experienced physician, FaceTite is considered a safe procedure with built-in safety features to control temperature and energy delivery.
Natural-Looking Results: Aims to provide a refreshed and more youthful appearance without the dramatic changes of a full facelift.
Can be Combined: May be combined with other procedures like Morpheus8 (RF microneedling) for enhanced results (sometimes called EmbraceRF).
What to Expect During and After the Procedure:

During: The procedure is typically performed in-office under local anesthesia, often with mild sedation to ensure comfort. Small incisions are made in discreet areas. The FaceTite handpiece is then used to treat the targeted areas. The treatment usually takes about 1-3 hours, depending on the areas being treated.
After:
You will likely experience swelling, bruising, and some tenderness in the treated areas.
A compression garment is usually worn for several days to weeks to help reduce swelling and support healing.
Some numbness is common and can last for a few weeks to months.
Small, firm lumps under the skin are also common and usually resolve within 3-6 weeks.
Most people can return to light activities within a few days and to work within 3-7 days. Strenuous activity is usually restricted for a few weeks.
Initial results may be noticeable soon after the procedure, with continued improvement over several weeks to months as swelling subsides and collagen production increases. Final results are typically seen within 6-12 months.
