Question

I am 28 years old, female, my main concern is the chubbiness in the lower third of my face and jawline.

I would not say I had overly chubby face, but I am trying to achieve the typical model face look.

I am confused as to whether the vaser liposelection or necktite would be suitable. could you kindly tell me what type you would recommend?

Answer

I have used both Vaser and radio-frequency assisted liposuction (Necktie, Facetite) to good effect for facial and jawline sculpting.

I believe the best approach in a situation like this is to start with a 3-D analysis of the facial shape, and simulation of the changes that you would like to achieve. This gives you a better perspective about the reshaping that facial liposuction may be able to deliver for you. More importantly though, it integrates the changes to with the rest of the facial features to help you understand whether you are on the right track with your plan.

There is no doubt that between a computer simulation and the end result you will always notice differences, but an accurate plan that you relate to is a powerful tool towards a successful outcome.
