Achieving a Sculpted Face: Combining Buccal Fat Removal, Thread Lifting, and Chin Contouring for Ultimate Facial Harmony

A well-defined face with a sharp jawline and balanced proportions is often associated with attractiveness and confidence. While genetics plays a major role in determining facial structure, advancements in aesthetic surgery now offer effective solutions to enhance facial contours. At Christinas Clinic, we provide a range of treatments, including buccal fat removal, thread lifting, and chin augmentation, to help patients achieve a slimmer, more youthful appearance.

Comprehensive Approach to Facial Contouring

To address various concerns—whether it’s excess fat in the cheeks, sagging skin, or a recessed chin—we often recommend combining multiple procedures for optimal results.
Below are key treatments that can be tailored to meet each patient’s unique needs:

1. Buccal Fat Removal for Slimmer Cheeks

Buccal fat pads, located inside the cheeks, can make the face appear rounder or fuller, even in individuals with a healthy weight. Removing these fat pads offers a permanent solution for achieving a slimmer and more contoured look.

• Quick procedure: The surgery takes only 20–30 minutes.
• No visible scars: Since the incisions are made inside the mouth, there are no visible scars.
• Permanent results: The fat pads do not regenerate, meaning the slimmed appearance is long-lasting.

Many patients seek buccal fat removal because excess cheek fullness can make them look older or heavier. By reducing cheek volume, the procedure enhances the cheekbones and jawline, giving the face a more elegant contour.

2. Thread Lifting for Tightening and Lifting

While buccal fat removal slims the face by reducing volume, thread lifting tightens and lifts facial muscles and sagging skin, creating a more youthful and defined appearance. This minimally invasive procedure uses non-absorbable permanent threads, that are positioned under fascia and can be used to improve facial and neck area.

• Immediate results: The lifting effect is visible right after the procedure.
• Collagen stimulation: Over time, the threads enhance skin texture and firmness by boosting collagen production.
• Minimally invasive.

Thread lifting is especially effective for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity. When combined with buccal fat removal, it ensures that the face not only looks slimmer but also firmer and more youthful.

3. Chin-line Augmentation for a Balanced Profile

A well-defined chin-line plays a crucial role in the overall balance and aesthetics of the face. For patients with a small or recessed chin, chin augmentation using implants can significantly enhance the facial profile.

• Enhances jawline definition: A chin implant brings harmony to the face by creating a stronger, more prominent jawline.
• Improves the neck contour: By projecting the chin forward, the procedure can help reduce the appearance of a double chin.
• Customizable implants: Depending on the patient’s facial structure and goals, implants are selected to create a natural, balanced look.

In many cases, patients with a smaller looking chin may appear to have a double chin, even if they are at a healthy weight. Chin augmentation not only improves the jawline but also gives the face a slimmer, more proportional appearance.

4. Liposuction for Double Chin Reduction

For patients whose primary concern is excess fat in the neck area, liposuction can be a highly effective solution. Chin and neck liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits, enhancing the jawline and neck contour.

• Quick recovery: Most patients can return to work after just 4 days of rest.
• Immediate results: The slimming effect is visible right after the swelling subsides.
• Permanent solution: Once fat cells are removed, they do not grow back.

Liposuction is particularly beneficial when combined with chin augmentation and thread lifting, as it sculpts the lower face and neck, ensuring a sharper and more youthful profile.

Who are the Ideal Candidates?

These procedures are ideal for individuals who:

• Have full or round cheeks that they want to slim.
• Notice sagging skin around the mid and lower face or neck but want to avoid a full surgical facelift.
• Have a small or recessed chin and desire a more balanced profile.
• Struggle with stubborn fat under the chin despite a healthy diet and exercise.
• Seek long-lasting, natural-looking results with minimal downtime.

However, not all patients are suitable candidates for every procedure. Those with very thin skin, significant skin laxity, or naturally hollow cheeks may require different approaches. During the consultation at Christinas Clinic, our specialists carefully evaluate each patient’s facial structure and recommend the best combination of treatments for their desired outcome.

Patient Isabella’s Experience: “The Best Decision I Ever Made”

“Although I have always been of normal weight, I struggled with how my face and neck looked. I didn’t have a defined jawline, and my face seemed to blend directly into my neck. I felt older and less confident because of it. After much consideration, I consulted Christinas Clinic and underwent face and neck liposuction along with a chin implant. The results exceeded my expectations—I finally have the defined jawline and slim profile I always wanted. It’s been a year since the procedure, and I couldn’t be happier. I feel more attractive, confident, and photogenic. Looking back at old photos, I barely recognize myself. This was truly the best decision I ever made.”
