Over a year since my Buccal Fat Pad Removal and the Jowl sagging is is still significant. I have considered Botox for jowls or Chin Filler to help my weak chin as well. Your professional recommendations are very much appreciated! Thank you!

Answer: Buccal fat pad removal won’t help jowls Thank you for your question. The removal of the buccal fat pad is done to make heavy, round cheeks more sculpted. I assume that’s why you had it done. Taking out the filling underneath the skin will result in any loose skin showing itself more prominently. So, now you’re seeing the effects of aging that shows itself in the formation of jowls. Having Botox in that area will have zero impact on your jowls. O treat jowls, the loose skin causing them needs to be addressed by lifting the skin, which means moving it into a new position and removing excess skin to keep it in that new position. Depending upon what your neck skin looks like, you would benefit from either a mini facelift or lower face and neck lift. Your problem can totally be addressed this way. Best of luck to you.

Answer: Dealing with jowls For the face to look its best, the person needs to have optimal proportions. Even though your pictures are of limited caliber, it is still obvious that your lower portion of the face is considerably narrower than the upper third of the face. I would recommend evening everything out with the use of some fat grafting which can enhance your chin as well as smooth out the jawline to create improve proportions and a more beautiful appearance. Make sure you find a plastic surgeon who's extremely well-versed in fat grafting techniques to the face. Fat grafting should produce natural and almost permanent results. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City plastic surgery
