I’m newly 30, ever since I can remember i’ve had an undefined jaw with a lot of volume. My face is slim but when I move with certain angles, you see a lot of fullness under my jaw and chin. Even at my lowest weight (137lbs - I’m 5’9) and fittest weight, I still had it. I want my side profile to be contoured but I don’t know what procedures to consider. I was thinking lipo? would a chin implant help too? I appreciate any recommendations! Thank you
