Would a chin reduction, neck liposuction and buccal fat removal address my witch's chin and give me a sharper jaw line? (photo)

Thank you for sharing your concerns and providing a photo for evaluation. Achieving a sharper jawline and addressing what you describe as a "witch's chin" can be approached through a combination of procedures, tailored to your specific anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Chin Reduction: This procedure can help reshape and reduce the prominence of your chin. It is particularly useful if the chin appears disproportionately large or protruding.

Neck Liposuction: By removing excess fat from the neck area, this procedure can enhance the definition between your chin and neck, contributing to a more contoured jawline.

Buccal Fat Removal: This involves the removal of fat pads from the cheeks, which can help create a more sculpted facial appearance. However, it’s important to assess if this is necessary in your case, as it primarily affects the midface rather than the jawline directly.

Given your description of significant muscle and soft tissue in the chin area, a customized approach combining these procedures could potentially offer the results you are looking for. Additionally, other treatments like genioplasty (chin reshaping) or dermal fillers might be considered to further enhance the jawline and chin contour.

It's essential to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon or a facial plastic surgeon who can evaluate your facial structure in person and recommend a tailored treatment plan. They can provide a comprehensive assessment and discuss the potential benefits and limitations of each procedure.

Best regards,

Based on this one photograph, you should not have a chin reduction. A strong chin provides better structural support for the soft tissue in your neck. If you're looking to improve your jawline significantly, you may require a neck lift procedure, which accomplishes liposuction to remove the fat deposits above the platysma muscle, surgical extraction of the deep fat below the platysma muscle, and a platysma-plasty, which significantly improves your jawline. It's also possible to release the mandibular restraining ligament to even out that crease between your chin and your neck.
