What can be done about my uneven chin? (photo)

I'm sorry to hear about your concerns with your uneven chin. Here are some options and steps you might consider to address this issue:

Consultation with a Specialist:
Schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist who specializes in facial aesthetics. They can evaluate your specific situation and recommend appropriate treatment options.

Dermal Fillers:
Injectable fillers can be used to add volume and symmetry to the chin area. They can help balance the appearance of your chin, especially when smiling.

Botox:
In some cases, Botox can be used to relax certain muscles around the chin that might contribute to asymmetry, improving the overall contour.

Chin Augmentation:
If you're looking for a more permanent solution, surgical options such as chin augmentation or genioplasty might be considered. These procedures can reshape and enhance the chin for a more balanced appearance.

Facial Exercises and Physiotherapy:
Sometimes, targeted exercises or physiotherapy can help improve muscle tone and symmetry in the face. A specialist can advise whether this could be beneficial in your case.

Customized Treatment Plan:
A personalized approach is essential, as each individual's facial structure and concerns are unique. Work with your specialist to develop a treatment plan tailored to your goals and needs.


By consulting with an experienced professional, you can explore these options and determine the best course of action to achieve a more symmetrical and satisfying appearance.

I don't think it's feasible to lift the left portion of your chin that appears to be lower than your right. Depending on your examination, microdroplet Silikon-1000 injections maybe considered to permanently lower the right side for a more symmetrical chin appearance. I hope this helps!

Thank you for your question and for sharing your photographs.

The concern you have described is most likely related to the volume of the digastric muscles beneath the chin. These can be reduced, and the procedure that typically addresses this—along with any additional deep fatty tissue in the submental region—is an anterior neck lift.

It is also worth noting that weight training can sometimes contribute to an increase in muscle volume under the chin due to the strain placed on the floor of the mouth and tongue during intense effort. An anterior neck lift is generally effective in addressing these concerns and achieving a more refined contour.

if it's not the bone, then it would be due muscle (esp if you say it's worsen when you smile). you could always try botox first.

During embryological development, each side of the face develops independently from each other.
Your situation is pretty complex and I would be reluctant to even attempting to make a good assessment without an in person consultation.
I recommend you have several in person consultations with plastic surgeons in your community.
if you have access to radiographic studies and you should bring those.
Best,
