A
sharp jaw line, prominent cheeks and a chiseled look
are highly desired facial features today. Fat deposits
on the face tend to accumulate below the chin, on the
cheeks and over the jaw line creating a chubby look.
Delineation
of facial features and enhancing them can be safely
done through minimal access surgery.
Although
each case is different and a thorough assessment
would be required for creating a treatment plan,
most cases do well with the following procedures:-
1.
Cheek fat removal - Fat bulge below the
cheeks can be removed from the inside of the mouth
without external scars.
2.
Liposuction – Fat deposits over the lower
jaw and below the chin can very well be removed
by liposculpting. Injection lipolysis is also
an alternate option for removing fat from the
jaw line and under chin area. However, multiple
treatments may be required with injection lipolysis.
In
addition, if the chin is weak, a chin implant
will augment this area and make the face look
more defined. These three procedures together
create a powerful change in the facial profile.
All this can be done as a day care surgery without
hospitalization.
