I have always been self conscious about my disproportionate profile. I know that I could benefit from many surgeries but I would like to do the simplest solution to look more proportionate. I'm not interested in a chin implant. I am not overweight, I've always looked chubby because of my face.
Answer: Face and neck lift A face and neck lift would lift your cheeks so they would not appear so full and ptotic. The neck portion will recreate a pleasing neck line without the fullness. The procedure can be done under local anesthesia or IV sedation.

Answer: Loose neck skin, full cheeks, receding chin Thank you for your question. With this limited view photos and desire for the "simplest solution" I would recommend VASER liposuction of the neck and submental area, lateral jaw line definition and Renuvion skin tightening. The "chubby" face is most likely from large buccal fat pads which can be removed at the same time via small intraoral incisions. These can be done under intravenous sedation as an outpatient. See a board certified plastic surgeon for an in person consultation/evaluation. Good luck.

Answer: Neck +/- facelift Thank you for posting your question here My answer is based on the limited information and pictures provided , for a more detailed and a bespoke plan please consult with your plastic surgeon. It is difficult to come up with a recommendation without the proper exam and more pictures including a frontal profile, that being said , from the limited pictures provided you might benefit from a neck lift coupled potentially with a facelift and maybe buccal fat removal, this will give you a sharper jawline , skinnier cheeks and will reduce prominent nasolabial folds. again this is just a broad plan , I would recommend consulting with a plastic surgeon for a proper exam and pictures. I hope this helps , best of luck!

Answer: Neck and Lower Face Contouring Hello, hope you are well. Thanks for posting your photos and background information. The photos are little limited, but it appears that you would be a good candidate for a deep neck lift to contour the submental/subplatysmal fat and achieve a sharper neck contour. The neck lift may be augmented with bipolar RF (eg NeckTite), and you may also consider buccal fat removal to address the cheek fullness, though hard to give a strong recommendation without seeing your face from a frontal view. Best, Dr. Tower

Answer: Loose neck, skin, full cheeks, receding chin The photographs are rather limited, so it would be more important to post a full set of facial and neck photographs from all angles to make a better determination. Also important to post your age. From these limited photographs, you have fat deposits located in both compartments in the neck, located above and below the platysma muscle in your neck. A surgical neck lift can accomplish your goals of rejuvenation of the neck by removal of both compartments of fat, in addition to a platysma-platy. Liposuction alone will be ineffective, because most of your fat deposits are located below the muscle with a surgical neck lift, no skin removal is required, just three small access incisions. If you're over age 50, then a lower face and neck lift would be required to tighten skin.
