Hello RealSelf community, thank you in advance for your time in reading this. I ask for your expertise and advice in a cosmetic solution for the following so I can proceed with information. (I am a 27 y/o male) 1- Uneven spot in lower cheek area / lower sides of mouth. Very visible in photos and in person, really want to get rid of these 'bump's. 2- Small and bumpy chin. (I believe this can be fixed with a chin implant to give it more length/definition, would like any advice) Thanks again.
Answer: Chin and Perioral Mounds Your circled areas are perioral mounds which are treated by small cannula lkposuction from an incision inside the mouth corners. The dimpling on your chin is caused by a short chin and a mentalis strain. Whether that should be treated by a chin implant or a sliding genioplasty can be debated. But the combination of a vertically short chin with mentalis strain favors the bony movement.

Answer: Midfacial descent So mid 30s is the time when this sign of ageing first appears. As the mid face deflates so the soft tissues fall. As the fall they start to weigh around the fix points at the corner of the mouth and the lower jaw. You have two options when you are young. The first and better option for you is to reinflate the cheek. This can be done with fat or filler and will correct these early signs. In ten years time the tissues may have fallen so far that lifting might be needed but I think that option should be left in your case for the future. Hope that helps. Adam Goodwin

Answer: Volume correction The problem near the mouth corner typically occurs as volume is lost from the midface and the skin begins to slide forward and down. I would recommend revolumizing the cheeks with any filler you like (Voluma, Bellafill, Sculptra, fat, etc) to help lift that skin and minimize the lower face "bumps."

Answer: Best cosmetic solution for lower cheek 'bump's to create an even and defined side/lower face? Hi, I have performed many facial shaping procedures using dermal fillers, silastic facial implants (cheek implants, chin implants, lip implants), liposuction and/or facelifts for over 30 years. From the photos, your chin is very weak.
