Wide lower face - what can I do to slim it down? (photos)

In person evaluation and examination is the best distinguishing factor here. Based on your photographs, it looks like width is from your masseter muscles rather than from your buccal fat pad, but palpation is the way to confirm this.

Thank you for your question and photos. Buccal fat removal or Botox injections are both viable options for reducing fullness in the lower third portion of the face. Injecting Botox into the masseter muscle reduces its size and provides a slimming effect that can last for 3-4 months. During a buccal lipectomy, the buccal fat pad is removed to reduce fullness in the area between the cheek and jawline and create a more defined and contoured appearance. Buccal fat tissue is not regrown, so the results of this procedure are permanent. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon or expert injector. They will be able to analyze your concern and determine which treatment option may be best to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

It is very difficult to give you good advise based on these photos. It seems that injection of masseter muscles would help to improve square look of your lower face. It is impoossible to say whether removal of buccal fat pads would be of any benefit without in person evaluation. Good luck.

Good Afternoon! I see what you're talking about. Buccal fat remove can help to remove some of the fullness within the cheeks. The results are subtle which is important to keep in mind. I often tell patients to expect more slimming and slight shadowing from the cheek bone to the jawline. Masseter Botox can help if you're full at the angles of the jaw. Sometimes it's genetic, other times it's related to teeth grinding at night. I would seek consultation with a facial plastic surgeon to learn more. Hope this helps!

Yes both masseter Botox with buccal fat removal indicated. Fee from $5,000. Best to virtual consult with... Might need anterior mini facelift with SMAS plication also add $5,000.
