Hello, Dr. Lam, forgive me if this is a stupid question to ask. I was wondering if there is a certain type of surgery that would benefit me the most. I already have a rather strong jawline and all around a ''defined'' face, but I would like an even more chiseled look. I've read a lot online, but most seem to refer to having a fuller face with cheek augmentation. I'm not too sure if this is for women or not, but as I said I'd like sort of the opposite. Is there anything you'd recommend or any type of surgery you perform that would be suited for a male of 25 years-old? I read on your site that there are different types of cheek augmentations and I was wondering if any work for what I'm looking for? Thank you.
hi, cheek and jaw implants may help you achieve that look. personally i do not perform those procedures. as an alternative, you can also do facial fillers to "try on" that look if you would like too. that i do do. best, sml
