Jawline sags downward - What procedure can fix my jawline?

username333999May 5, 2025
My jawline is ok up until my chin - which is either too short or has too much fat underneath. Whenever I have a picture taken from the side (and I’m not posing like in the last picture), especially from a lower angle, my jawline sags downward. I was wondering if chin lipo or chin implant/genioplasty would be a better fix for my issue. Any advice would be much appreciated! I also have badddd TMJ if that’s relevant. I’ve considered masseter Botox but heard it could give me jowls - could that help too?

It sounds like this would be an appropriate question to ask your surgeon. I am not aware of advocating for a chin implant surgery before sliding genioplasty surgery. Thank you for this question. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

It would be helpful if you could include a few pictures, especially profile pictures. Assessments for these procedures are not always easy or straightforward and different providers will have different opinions. It’s possible to have a weak chin and not be a good candidate for chin a...
