Slimming and tighteing of lower face - what would be the best option? (Photos)

Question

Hello, I would like some advice please on how I may go about achieveinv this slimmed down look on my lower face as shown in pictures. (1st is the original of course and 2nd what I would like to achieve) I am 23 so I am unsure why I am already facing so much lower face sagging and laxity, I definitely have some pre jowls appearing but I am unsure whether this is just down to skin laxity or whether is perhaps due to excess buccal fat. I have tried massetter Botox with no avail so now exploring other options. I am slim so if it is potentially due to excess fat in my face then I assume my only option is to look into buccal fat removal? If any one has any advice please it would be greatly appreciated.

For patients with wide mandibular angles, the best treatment to slim the lower face is the removal of the bony portion of the lower jaw or mandibular angle reduction. This is usually a congenital trait, and unrelated to the amount of subcutaneous fat or the buccal fat pad.  The surgery is performed in the office with sedation anesthesia.
