Would jawline fillers help give my face a more mature look? Any other suggestions? (photos)

Question

I had braces for 5 years for a very severe overbite which included a recessed jaw. I have already had a chin implant (which helped somewhat, although now I wish I'd gotten a full jaw implant but I am not willing to get it redone) and a buccal fat removal. But I still have the baby face of someone in their early to mid-teens, and not in a good way. I'm in my mid-20's. I was thinking fillers but only on the sides/corners of my jaw but I'm not sure if I should do that or something else. Thank you!

fillers, threads, Facetite and morpheus are what my younger clients do for jawline and neck contouring.There are many options for jawline contouring:
1) implants
2) fat or filler injections along the bone
3) botox for masseter hypertrophy or platysma muscle/neck bands
4) ThermiRF/J Plasma/Renuvion/InMode FaceTite for internal heating
5) Thermage or Ultherapy skin tightening
5) PDO Novathreads or instalift threads for lifting
6) Neck or facelifting surgery
7) VASERlipo with or without platysmaplasty

Dear Kind202845,
generally speaking, dermal fillers are a great option for face contouring. If you are considering a treatment, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

I will break this down for you. You're still very young and that is the reason for the fullness of the face. As you reach your early to mid 30s, the buccal fat will magically disappear or at least reduce in size to a considerable degree. This is something that happens in almost every individual. As far as your jawline is concerned, you can have it enhanced and defined whether you feel fillers in the posterior portion of the jaw. this is quite easily done as long as it's performed by a plastic surgeon with extensive experience in fillers. Don't chase the aging process as it will catch up with you whether you like it or not. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City plastic surgery
