Question

I am a 28 year old man with a relatively well defined jaw line. I would like it to be squarer, would it be possible to achieve this using a jaw implant?

Answer

Angle of the jaw implant can widen the back of the jaw and the angle, and create a squarer contour.

Smaller changes can be achieved also with injectable fillers or fat transfer.

It is possible to evaluate during a consultation using 3-D imaging and simulation what it is that you would like to achieve, and based on that to guide you towards the type of treatment more likely to transform it into practice.
