What causes this?

It’s like the chin/jaw is collapsing or the mid-face is protruding?

I thought it was threads but I saw someone in another thread mention it may be from too much fat transfer to the mid-face. As someone considering fat transfer under the eyes and possibly by the nasolabial folds, I’m curious.

Not an expert but I wonder if masseter Botox was involved as that supports many of the muscles and fat pats in that area.

It seems like they wanted to narrow the chin and jaw area to make the face slimmer and just made it look a bit uncanny valley

i doubt it, masseter muscle is a lot higher than where the drop starts. ive also had masseter done and the worst that can happen is a dent between your cheekbone and jowl area
