Why is my face so full? How can I get a more chiseled look? (photos)

Question

Despite being very thin and with a tall skull, my face reads as full, especially when I’m smiling. Is this due to my lower face (eg buccal fat, masseter or chin length), my midface (eg cheek projection or height) or upper face (eg temple fullness or forehead). I would like a more chiseled and sophisticated look. All suggestions and analysis welcome!

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

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
