Im 36 and want a more defined jawline. Would you recommend buccal fat removal?
Answer: Chin Liposuction would be a great option. Pair with Morpheus8 to help further define the jawline. Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy 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. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Answer: Combination of a few procedures Based off your photos - you could benefit from some chin liposuction and J plasma or some type of RFA treatment invasively to help with the skin. (I would do this and then see how you heal and if you are content no neck lift needed) Neck lift would be next option but that is also scarring behind the ear that your surgeon would discuss with you and this would ideally give you the most pull in your next to define your jaw line. As far as buccal fat removal goes - that will help slim your cheek and not address the jawline much. A mid face lift (helps with some of the jowling) and some fat rejuvenation to your malar region would help with some of the facial descent you are experiencing and also will address some of the jawline as well.

Answer: Jawline definition Anatomically, all necks are not created equally. That said, for you to get definition and a more acute neck angle, you would benefit from a deep plane neck lift which addresses the fat, muscles and submandibular glands beneath the skin and superficial fat. This combined with a small chin implant or fat grafting to the chin and mandibular border would make a huge difference. Buyer beware… liposuction with skin tightening will only give you modest improvement at best.

Answer: Neck lift with liposuction Based on these photos and short of in person evaluation, my suggestion would be an anterior neck lift with neck liposuction. In-person or teleconference consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with expertise in neck lifts is recommended. Good luck.
