Best fix for my weak jawline? I have low body fat and still have no jawline. (Photo)

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

Hello and thank-you for sharing your photo and question.


Liposuction and Jplazty (cold plasma energy to tighten skin) of the chin and neck produces consistently great results for appropriate candidates. I think this would be a great option for you.


I would  suggest an in person consultation  with a board certified plastic surgeon well-versed in all aspects of facial rejuvenation in your area to learn about your options..

The photos suggest that a chi implant, combined with neck liposuction would be indicated.  More projection for the chin, combined with a tighter neck/ jaw angle would give the appearance of a stronger jawline. A physical examination is required to give more complete information. 

Neck liposuction is a great option for patients with good skin elasticity and excess fat in the neck and around the jawline. This will remove excess fat and stimulate the skin to contract over time which will improve angulation and definition along the jawline. A chin implant would give more definition. I recommend seeing an expert for a consultation. I hope this helps!

A full set of facial photographs and an in-person examination going to be required to make a determination about how to proceed. If it is excess skin, then a facelift is required. It is excess fat above the muscle, libel suction can accomplish your goals. If there's fatty deposits above and below the platysma muscle, then a neck lift can accomplish your goals. A platysma plasty may have be also required there is a short platysma muscle.  A full set of photographs would also help make a determination about whether not there's a weak and recessive chin profile present, for which a chin implant can improve. Chin implants are complementary to the work performed in the neck. For many  neck lift  and chin implant examples, please see the link and the video below

 Hi, I have performed many facial shaping procedures using dermal fillers, silastic facial implants (cheek, chin), liposuction and/or facelifts for over 30 years.  Following my beauty principles, men look chiseled and handsome with angularity in the cheeks, chin and mandibular angles.  From the photos, your cheeks are flat anteriorly (in the front), the chin is weak as are the mandibular angles and there is excess facial skin and a slight amount of fat under the chin.  The following procedures would create a more ruggedly handsome face.
Cheek augmentation with cheek implants to add angularity to the cheeks and mid face.  Liposuction can be combined to reduce any excess fat to further shape the cheeks and face.
Chin augmentation, using a chin implant, to add projection to the chin creating harmony and balance to the lower face.  I have performed many facial shaping procedures, including Chin Augmentation with dermal fillers or silastic chin implants, for over 30 years.  When the chin is weak, this creates an imbalance making the nose appear larger, the mid face top heavy, the lower face looks short, de-emphasizes the lips and allows early formation of a "double chin".  Proper placement of a silastic chin implant adds forward projection to the chin thereby creating harmony and balance to the lower face.  Using the same incision, liposuction can be performed to reduce the fat and further shape the neck.  Excess skin, from below the chin, can also be removed through the same incision.  I have found that placement of a silastic chin implant, through a small curved incision under the chin (also allows excess skin removal) to be very safe, quick, highly effective and far less invasive than a sliding genioplasty (requires extensive tissue dissection, bone cuts and placement of metal screws and plates to secure the cut bone segments).  I perform chin implant surgery in 30 minutes or less, often using a local anesthetic alone.  In my opinion, you are a good candidate for chin implant surgery combined with liposuction and excess skin removal using the same incision.  In contrast reduction of the small amount of fat under the chin alone, by any method, would not provide the necessary forward projection to correct the weak chin.
Augmentation of the mandibular angles using a dermal filler (jaw implants have too many unwanted side effects IMHO) to add volume, angularity and flare to the jaw line.
Hope this helps.
