28 years old & have fat pad on chin corner, would a neck lift help? (Photos)

Question

I had a chin implant 5 years and ago and removed after 2 months. Ny chin looked fine but did fillers on it instead as well as fillers and now i developed that lump. I dont know if it is filler or fat but i would liketohave it fix and wonder if a neck lift would help. I also had lipo on my neck and jawline last year

It may be a filler migration, as you had fillers injected in the area. Fortunately, this issue can be corrected with Hyaluronidase.

Good luck !

Thank you for your question and photos. If the lump you’re referring to is caused by filler migration, an enzyme called hyaluronidase can instantly dissolve it. Should you undergo further injectable treatments in the future, I’d suggest inquiring about a microcannula to administer the filler. Using a blunt-tipped microcannula can provide more control over filler distribution while reducing instances of bruising and swelling. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, expert injector. They will be able to review your treatment history, assess your concern, and help you decide on the best course of action.

First thing to exclude is that liump is not due to filler or inflamatory reaction to filler? If that turns to be fat, liposuction with small cannular may be considered. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in facial i[lants, is recommended. Good luck.

This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. Buccal fat pad gives slimming not symmetry. Masseter botox will make you slimmer and make the jawline more loose. Fillers help give shaping and contouring. If you want perfect or close to perfect symmetry you need maxillofacial surgery or implants customized. I suggest seeing an expert to go through all options. Most of my younger clients use fillers to give them shaping especially on the cheeks, jawline, and chin which make the face look more slim and tight; and threads such as PDO or Instalift can build collagen and support the facial shaping and skin looseness over time, slowing down the aging process and given the face a more “snatched” look; and morpheus8 or PiXel8 deep microneedling RF can tighten crepe skin especially on the neck and jawline and is great for long term tightening of the full face, neck and chest; its often used to give the face a slimmer more sculpted look because it tightens the skin and gives lift. an early face lift can be performed as well even in younger clients if they want a different facial shape, maxillofacial surgery with bone breaking or shaving can also be done. For facial slimming a combination of treatments are always needed. Options include: 1. Buccal fat pad removal to reduce fat on the lower face 2. Factite or Renuvion/J Plasma to tighten the lower face, jawline, and chin to reduce fat and give the jawline and neck tightening and shaping. 3. Botox to the masseter to reduce the muscular size of the jaw giving the face an illusion of being more slender 4. Fillers to the jawline, chin, cheeks, temples and brow help to shape the face and make it more angled and defined Always use at home derma rolling (see link to Emerageskin x anteageMD roller plus stem cells/hyaluronic acid ampules) and peels like emeragecosmetics enlighten or aerify that can be used to improve skin quality and tighten the skin while improving wrinkles, pigmentation, acne, and Melasma. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

You do not need a neck lift. If filler is present, ask to have it removed with enzymes.  Otherwise, you could try noninvasive radiofrequency skin tightening to help tighten and shrink.

Based on the posted photos I recommend mini face/neck lift with SMAS plication. Fee $6000-$8,000. Best to virtual consult with.
