Jaw-line Contouring
Your jawline contributes to the balance of your entire face. The jaw affects how your nose and cheeks look, balancing your face by creating definition between the cheeks and jaw. The ideal jaw is shaped like an upside-down egg with soft angles that are not square, and is smooth and free of excess fat and skin. Not happy with yours?
A recessed jawline can diminish the features and soften the contours of the face giving it a weak appearance. For those seeking a solution for a week jawline and who are looking for a treatment that requires a minimum of down time, non-surgical jawline definition may be the answer.
With strategic injections of facial fillers it is possible to improve the volume and projection of the jaw. Soft tissues fillers are injected at key points along the jawline to enhance its angle, shape and size. Non-surgical jaw reduction can help better defined your facial features and bring stronger and more balanced look to your entire face.
Botox can also be injected below the jawline to prevent the neck muscles from contracting and forcing the jowl to pull downward. Fillers can be injected in front of and behind the jowls to smooth the jawline and add just a bit of volume for a more proportional jaw.
The success of this facial enhancement procedure depends on the injection technique, which varies with each type of filler, as it is both an art and a science. The physician must have a thorough understanding of HA fillers’ capabilities and limitations.
