Neck makes me look chubby - how can I Improve my profile? (photos)

Question

I am very insecure about my side profile because of my features, but mostly my neck. I like the shape of my face and I do have a jawline but no definition in my neck. My chin isn’t small or needs filler( personal opinion) and I am a healthy, skinny person but my neck makes me look chubby. I also have wish my nose was smaller and my lips didn’t face downwards.

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

​A combination of non-surgical options like Kybella, PDO NovaThreads, Ultherapy and Thermage would do well in combination for skin tightening for the neck. VASER Liposuction (with ThermiRF, Renuvion and InMode FaceTite) is a great alternative for contouring and tightening the chin and neck and can be combined with a neck lift at the same time, if you're a candidate. I suggest getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist to develop a long-term treatment plan that works for you. Best, Dr. Emer.​

Hi, Thanks for your question and pictures. Beauty is not the perfect symmetry but go toward the symmetry, balance and proportion among the different areas in our face. My approach involves a very detailed assessment of the face as whole unit analyzing the upper, middle and lower face including Jaw line and neck area, both side, different views, and using a bespoke treatment with dermal fillers and medical devices for skin tightening. 
The above approach with dermal fillers in the right place/layer can can address your concerns and achieve balance and proportion among the different areas (i.e. cheeks, mid-face, jaw lines, lips and chin) in your face with a natural looking result. The addition of Morpheus 8  can improve your Jaw line definition and tightens the skin. Morpheus 8 involves micro-needling and Radiofrequency and could be quite discomfort at high level of energy for better results. For this reason, in my clinic , Morpheus 8 is performed by a doctor with experience in local anesthetic infiltration to reduce the discomfort and improve the results. In summary the combination of Dermal fillers/ Morpheus 8 can improve improve jawline definition and slim down lower face and tighten skin around the jaw area and achieve better balance and proportion among the different areas in our face and neck and improve your profile. 
I would suggest to book an appointment with a doctor with experience in facial/neck assessment and combined non surgical aesthetic treatments including medical devices and discuss the most appropriate treatment option for you. 
Hope this help,

An in person evaluation is always best but you may find improvement with FaceTite, Morpheus8, or both.  These treatments can tone, tighten, and improve skin texture.  See a board certified plastic surgeon's office near you to learn more.
