I have both a wide stereo typically "Asian" face (flat droopy cheeks, temples as wide as jaw) and a soft one with little bone structure in my cheeks. I would like a slimmer jawline and face. Is lower face liposuction, buccal fat reduction or Botox in the jawline the best, safest route?

Answer: Best Treatment to Slim Lower Face Hi Irsi,The injection of Botox into the masseter muscles is an effective treatment for slimming the lower face. It is a very common procedure on Asian faces. Liposuction of the neck helps to define the jawline. I would not advise removing buccal fat pads as invariably, as one gets older, the face needs that volume and appears haggard. As with all facial aesthetic treatments, it is most important that you take the time to choose your physician very carefully based on their skill, experience, and natural artistic vision. Good luck and be well.Michael Persky, MDEncino, CA

Answer: Slimming lower face I am certainly not a fan of buccal fat removal but that treatment combine with liposuction of the chance is much better than Botox. Botox may be helpful in the masseter (jaw muscles)
