Which procedure would help me achieve more projection and definition in the chin and jaw area? (photos)

Question

I currently have chin filler but it didn’t help with my actual concerns. I was hoping the extra projection on my chin would pull the skin around my jaw and neck area more than it did, but I’m still left with the sagging under my chin. I feel as if my face is lacking forward growth which is contributing to the problem, but I’m not sure of any procedures to help with that. What could I do to get rid of this issue? Because I never really had issue with my chin, more so my jaw and profile.

Ultherapy  is a non-invasive procedure that lifts the neck, chin and brow, and improves lines and wrinkles on the upper chest. As we age, collagen breaks down, resulting in loss of skin strength and elasticity. For tissue tightening, Ultherapy  is ideal for the lower face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Morpheus8 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.

The best chance will be a combination treatment of chin implant, neck liposuction and Thermitight. Any of these alone will help but not as much as the combination.

Based on your photos, I think a chin implant and/or liposuction would greatly improve your lower facial balance. The most prominent point of your chin is too high in the profile photos so a well-placed chin implant will place the most prominent point more inferior. In addition, the submental skin will be stretched and provide a better profile appearance.

Based on your photos, you may be a good candidate for liposuction but a thorough evaluation would be needed to assess your lower face.

I hope this helps,
best of luck !
