I wanted to know what I could potentially do to get a more defined jawline. I am considering chin liposuction, but will this be enough or will I need the neck done?
Answer: A combination of chin liposuction and ultherapy can help define the jawline and chin. Ultherapy is a non-invasive procedure that lifts the neck, chin and brow, and improves lines and wrinkles on the upper chest. As we age, collagen breaks down, resulting in loss of skin strength and elasticity. For tissue tightening, Ultherapy is ideal for the lower face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Morpheus8 to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: Chin lipo Dear SNew6000, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Jawline Definition / Jawline Enhancement / Facial Sculpting / Facial Contouring -- injectable fillers like Revanesse Versa For a more defined jawline to strengthen your profile (and help prevent the dreaded jawline "jowl" sagging), we use injectable fillers like Revanesse Versa - a filler known to limit swelling and give subtle, soft enhancements - or Radiesse. Using a cannula to limit pain and swelling, we inject on the bone in strategic points to get more lift and shaping, resulting in a more contoured lower face and defined, structured jawline. I would suggest getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Understanding what causes a double chin Almost to 100% of individuals, seeking chin and neck liposuction have a fundamental primary diagnosis an undersized mandible.Fat distribution is not what causes a double chin. Most likely if you’ve been at lower weights, you must likely still had the double chin. Liposuction if done well can give quality results that can give partial improvements. This is especially true for people who are chubby and have a good skin elasticity. Young, overweight, people typically get the best results.That said, it is still important to recognize that Liposuction is not treating the primary problem, which is almost always based on bone structure. To get an accurate assessment regarding facial, skeletal structure consider having in person consultations with local oral surgeons or plastic surgeons with cranial facial surgery background.I cranial facial surgery may be more than many people are willing to undergo. It is, however important to recognize that when you choose a procedure that doesn’t treat the primary problem. Patient should only expect a partial improvement. The best results always come from procedures, oriented and treating the primary problem. The process should always begin by having a quality assessment with a clear understanding of what the underlying problem is. There are multiple tissue variables that contribute to facial contour. Bone structure is first and foremost when it comes to the contour of the lower 1/3 of the face. Other tissue variables that contribute include skin, fat, but this one muscle and supper platysmal fat. in the end, these soft tissue structures are fundamentally influenced by what the bone structure is. Consider having consultations with both plastic surgeons and oral surgeons in your community. Best, Mats Hagstrom, MD
