I've always had a very round face with a chin that looks like it doesn't lead into my jawline and makes it seem like it protrudes more than it should. Both my parents have this same feature and I'm also at my ideal weight and body fat % so I know it's probably genetic and independent of my weight. I'm having trouble deciding whether or not I need to go to a plastic surgeon or to my injector. What procedure might help with this?

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: Jawline contour Based on your photos and concerns you may have the best results from a combination of treatments. Botox to the masseter muscles can help to slim the appearance of the lower face. FaceTite can be used to slim and contour the jawline, chin, and upper neck. Morpheus8 treatments can be added to enhance results and address skin tone and texture. See an experienced provider to learn more about these options.

Answer: Chin lipo for round face Dear 10thomer, Thank you for your question! Based on your photo, it appears that you may benefit from chin liposuction with jawline contouring. This procedure can be performed in the office under local anesthesia with you awake, or some patients prefer to be asleep. Recovery is quick in a matter of days, but swelling can take longer to resolve. Once recovered, you can assess and see if you need additional filler along the jawline. I recommend seeing a board-certified plastic surgeon who performs many chin liposuction cases for a consult.
