I'd really like to sharpen my profile but regardless of how much weight I lose (I am very skinny now) I can't seem make my face any more sculpted. I'm wondering if I would be a better candidate for liposuction around the chin and jaw or a chin implant?

Answer: What determines the facial aesthetics.What determines the facial aesthetics. Facial aesthetics are primarily determined by facial, skeletal or bone structure. You don’t have an abnormal fat distribution. It is facial skeletal structure that determines each person’s unique individual facial appearance. I don’t think Liposuction is going to give you what you’re looking for. Facial aesthetics is a fairly complex subject and simply getting quality assessment or understanding what the primary variables can be challenging. Period. Some providers do this better than others. Simplistic solutions to problems based on primary bone structure are at best going to give you partial improvements. You can consult with plastic surgeons or oral surgeons in your community to see what each has to say. Before committing into any particular treatment, I suggest insisting on seeing lots of before, and after pictures of previous patients who had similar facial characteristics for any recommended surgical procedure.
