40, 162cm, 62kg, what procedure to improve neck side profile & definition (Photo)

From the submitted photo it appears you would have the best result from a surgical lower face and neck lift. This would improve contours and give more definition to the jawline. You could consider other options such as FaceTite and facial liposuction but it will not produce the same results as a surgical lift.

Thank you for your question and sharing your photograph.

The profile view shows prominence of the submandibular glands, some volume excess generated by fatty tissue in the central part of the neck, and probably a significant amount of this is hereditary in nature. There is also some laxity along the jawline and in the anterior cheek, with the soft tissue of the cheek coming close to the corner of the mouth.

In my opinion, the ideal approach, if you want to change the contour of the jawline and neck, would be to combine a deep plane facelift and neck lift. This would address the combined characteristics of the lower face and neck.

However, a deep plane neck lift is also an option. But it would give you less improvement around the lower face.

At 40 years old your skin tone and elasticity is probably reasonable enough to do a FaceTite procedure. This is done through 3 small incisions: one behind each earlobe and one under the chin. Local anesthetic is infiltrated across your entire neck, jawline and lower face. Liposuction is done first to remove any excess fat, and then the FaceTite probe is inserted which uses radio frequency energy to tighten the skin and induce collagen growth which further tightens the skin over the following several months.
After finishing the FaceTite I usually treat the area with Morpheus8 for improved skin tightening. This procedure is done in an office operating room under minimal sedation anesthesia. It is painless to go through and the recovery is painless as well. You have to wear a Velcro compressive neck strap for a week or two. Most people look non-surgical after 3 to 4 days at which time they can resume full activities.
