Hi. Male, 21 years old. Biggest problems currently are, extremely recessed chin, acne/bad skin overall, early androgenetic alopecia, ~20% bodyfat and unideal muscle mass.

Progress so far but still early
Front improving, side profile still weak (main focus)
Started at 70kg ~20% BF, cutting to 64KG ~12% BF (weight will go back up via muscle growth at gym)
Working on gym, skincare, overall structure
Will document everything

I started dutasteride and oral minoxidil for my hair loss, gym 3x week for leanmaxxing, tret + basic skincare for face, blood test to see nutrient deficiencies, scheduling genioplasty for recessed chin (hopefully within next 6 months I get the money required, then hardmax time).

I started around 1.5 to 2 months ago at 70.5kg, I have made some minor improvements. I was extremely bloated and face had no angularity + shit haircut + fatter face. I was tired in the before images, the images are completely before beginning any softmaxxes, I have improved diet and debloated as well as lost 2 kgs of fat.

Before ~2 months 70.5kg to 71kg
Now 67.9 to 68.7 kg (yes it varies that much)



Current goals are:
~12% BF at ~68kg (currently 12% is around 64kg, so I want more muscle less fat)
clear skin (still have a long way to go, I also have back acne)
genioplasty for recessed chin (already scheduled and spoken to specialists and surgeons about it, just getting the money, i AM employed)
heightmax to a consistent 6ft, currently 5'11" (using adult height maxxing (growth plates most likely closed)

I've still got a long way to go. I'd estimate current BF is around 18% - 19%, and I believe a genioplasty will improve my jawline and offer the possibility of hollow cheeks if at low bodyfat.

Hair
--> dutasteride
--> minoxidil
-->Ketoconazole shampoo (2–3x/week, optional support)

Skin (acne / overall quality)
--> tretinoin (main driver)
--> Gentle cleanser + moisturizer
-->Sunscreen daily (non-negotiable)
-->Benzoyl peroxide (especially for back acne)

Body fat / physique
-->Calorie deficit (~0.4–0.6 kg/week loss)
--> Protein 1.6–2.2 g/kg
--> Weight training (3–4x/week, progressive overload)
--> Steps / light cardio

Muscle mass
-->Consistent lifting
-->Progressive overload
-->Slight calorie surplus AFTER cut
-->Sleep 7–9h

Chin / side profile
--> sliding genioplasty
-->Get lean first
-->Optional: orthodontic evaluation if bite/jaw involved

Height
--> Posture improvement
-->Footwear (subtle lifts if you care)
-->Gym (better proportions = taller appearance)
--> (No real biological increase at 21)

General optimization
-->Blood test (fix deficiencies )
-->Diet cleanup (reduce bloating, sodium swings)
-->Consistent sleep schedule
-->Stress control
