Question

I am a 22 year old slim girl. My jaw line and cheekbones are not very defined. Is there a procedure which could accentuate these contours?

Answer

There are several ways to enhance the contours of the cheekbone and jawline, and may be more suitable depending on the degree of change required. They range from injectable fillers, fat transfer to facial implants.

The the best planning approach would be to use 3-D imaging and simulation to evaluate the facial contours and proportions, the potential impact of the changes and based on that to determine what kind of intervention is most suitable.
