29, 20-25% body fat, what procedures do I need to get to look like my morph? (Photos)

Question

I am 29 years old. I am around 20-25% bodyfat which I am working on losing. My concerns are my dropping neck/fat around my neck, weak chin and and the hollowness/bruising color around my lower eyes. Money is not an issue and I want procedures that are permanent or extremely long lasting as opposed to fillers.

For your chin, you would absolutely benefit from a genioplasty. This procedure would bring your chin forward and slightly down, creating the projection you are looking for, while elongating the jawline and tightening the skin underneath. It is a permanent procedure that does not require the use of an implant. It is done entirely though the mouth, which means no external scarring. With that, you could also consider submental lipo, which would further reduce the fullness under the chin, and jawline lipo, which would create more definition around the jawline. Buccal fat removal may also be a consideration. This would help to reduce some of the fullness in your cheeks. It is common to then use the buccal fat that is removed, and transfer it to the under eye area. This would add volume back to the space and reduce the appearance of the hollowness. Our office provides in-person or virtual consultations if you would like to discuss options further!

Hi!Offhand, My suggestions would definitely be a chin implant, possibly even a baby neck lift /submentoplasty, and fat grafting for around the eye area (although hard to tell based on your photos since you block the eyes). It's also hard to tell on photos alone where your hyoid is located compared to your mandible, which may limit how tight of a neck angle you can get; however, someone should be able to feel this in person and give you a better idea. Good luck!

Hello, hope you are well. Your morph shows increased chin projection, a more acute and lifted cervicomental angle, and a smoother transition of the eyelid/cheek junction. Based on these photos alone, I would most likely recommend a chin implant, NeckTite w/ liposuction, and potentially fat grafting under the eyes (in lieu of dermal filler). The undereye area is the most challenging to judge without seeing you in person to assess the anatomy properly. All of these options are minimally invasive procedures that I can perform in the office without leaving visible scars. Good luck!
Best,Dr. Tower

Based on these photos it appears that chin augmentation with implant and neck liposuction would create needed balance in your profile. In person or telemedicine consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in facial rejuvenation is recommended. Good luck.
