Implants can strengthen the jawline and create a more balanced facial silhouette by augmenting the mandibular body, angle, and ramus. A wide variety of patients can benefit from this procedure, including those with normal, deficient, or surgically altered anatomy.

Hi there, Thank you for the inquiry and images. A slim jawline is an aesthetic appearance that most people often request. If you are really unhappy about the appearance of your jaw size, then your options can include dermal filler injections to contour the jawline area, or you may be benefit from facial implants for a more permanent solution. If you are unsure of the method that you would like to proceed with, look for an experienced, Board-certified facial plastic surgeon who implements advanced photo software system in their clinic, so you can see a 3D image of what you would potentially look like after the above mentioned procedures. 
Good luck!

It is possible to balance the lower face with the full midface.  This uses augmentation of the jawline from the chin to the angles of the mandible.  The magnitude has to be artistically achieved  to keep a feminine appearance. This involves  intraoral  implant placement in the three areas of the jawline. Talk to a  Maxillifacial   surgeon
