Question

I have an extremely round face, something I have lived with since the day I was born. I have recently been conducting research and I am interested to know what procedure / combination of procedures might be right for me.

It would be great if I could send some pictures and get some advice. I know there are more 'extreme' methods such as 'facial contouring' but I am curious to know what / how buccal removal may compare for example.

Answer

Thank you for your enquiry.

For facial sculpting photographs are not particularly useful as they flatten the images and lose the spatial element.

A consultation using 3-D imaging and simulation provides a clear platform to define your targets for change, and evaluate whether they are feasible and what type of procedure or combination of procedures may be required.
