What can I do to change the shape of my face and give it more definition, resulting in more Symmetry and Harmony?

Doctor's Answer

Hi, from the photos you submitted I have a few suggestions:

Firstly I want to emphasise that you are young and have a nice overall oval shape face.
The suggestions listed below are based on augmentation of certain of your features to attain the symmetry and definition you desire

1. There appears to be some asymmetry of the midface with the left side looking more projected forward than the right. This is usually due to loss or deficiency of the mid cheek fat pads on the right . I would suggest augmentation of the right cheek with a HA filler to create volume and projection . This is to give you more balance and symmetry .

2. Looking at your side profile there are two issues . Firstly you have a poorly defined jawline and what appears to be a mild double Chin. Secondly your Chin appears to be recessed ( facing more backwards ) which affects how you look sideways from a beautification point of view

3. To improve your jawline contour you can consider injection of dermal HA fillers which can be done alone or in combination with mono filament threads and or HIFU of the lower face and jawline

4. Augmentation of the Chin with HA fillers is recommended to enhance the projection and volume of your Chin. This helps to give a better proportion to your overall face shape and helps in concealing the mild double Chin.

5. Lastly we need to assess if you have masseter or jaw muscle hypertrophy which if present can be treated with injection of a botulinum toxin to further define your lower face and create a V shape face. The muscles over the Chin needs to be assessed if they are hyperactive and if so they can be relaxed with injection of the same neurotoxin so as to make the Chin look less short.
Hope this helps !
