Hi, approaching forty and I look awful. My face looks so square and bottom heavy. I have nasolabial folda and think I look musculine. Any tips as to what may make me look better. Refreshed?
Answer: My face looks so square and bottom heavy. What treatment would you recommend; Facelift? Fillers? Thank you for your question and for the photos. In my professional opinion, there is no laxity of the neck and lower face; I can notice some degree of hypertrophy of the masseter muscle, which is your case is responsible for the "square" jaw. Your nasolabial folds are minimal and I would not suggest any treatment for them.I would advice a non surgical treatment called "botox jaw reduction", consisting in the injection of botulinum toxin in the masseter.It is very, very effective in reducing the width of the lower face, softening the overall appearance and giving a more feminine look.I would not recommend anything else. I am sure you will be happy with the outcome.RegardsAndrea Marando

Answer: Beautiful jawlines and face You have a wonderful jawlines and a pretty face. I would recommend facial fillers or fat grafting to improve the cheek and buccal area in order to soften square looking jawlines.

Answer: Too early for a facelift. The picture demonstrates a strong skeleton an attractive features. I would limit any therapy to fillers in the marionette region. You are certainly not ready for a facelift.

Answer: Face looks so square and bottom heavy A good exam is always necessary to determine possible alternatives and a good discussion is required to learn the expected results and the pros and cons of various treatments. In general if one has a heavier lower face and that is due to aging with skin looseness, usually the two options are either lifting to reduce the heaviness of the lower face or adding filler or volume of some sort to the cheek region to restore balance of the face. Sometimes both are done. A consultation is required. If you have a good discussion with your surgeon you will have a good understanding of the various alternatives.

Answer: My face looks so square and bottom heavy. At 40 I would not recommend a facelift. You could see significant improvement in volume loss with a dermal filler such as Juvederm Voluma and Juvederm Ultra Plus. With regard to the "square" shape of your face, many people are candidates for Botox slimming of the masseter muscle which can significantly reduce the width of the lower part of the face and create a much more pleasing triangular or heart shaped facial appearance. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon
