Jaw Enhancement Treatment
Jaw Enhancement Treatment
A defined jawline is highly desirable, as it can often be one of the most immediately striking features on the face. A strong chin and jawline can also give a sense of balance and symmetry to the face.
The way we feel about our appearance can have a significant impact on our sense of self, which is where my interest in and passion for aesthetic medicine was born. Strategically injected dermal fillers can be used to define the shape of the chin and jawline as part of non-surgical treatment to enhance the natural bone structure, reduce the appearance of a weak or unsymmetrical jawline, and frame the face. It can be used to enhance an under projected or recessed chin to give balance to the face and improve the profile.
This type of treatment is also ideal to treat marionette lines which can appear as we age, as well as any wrinkling and thinning of the skin around the jowls, and lips, which can obscure the chin. Dermal fillers can restore lost volume, which occurs as fat stores deplete around the chin and mouth, and as the jawbone naturally reduces in size.
Botox can also be used as part of jaw enhancement treatment to reduce the appearance of a dimpled chin, which can relax a hyperactive mentalis muscle, give the chin more prominence and create an aesthetically pleasing profile.
What does jaw enhancement treatment involve?
Jaw enhancement treatments are an excellent way to accentuate the natural contours of the face to give more definition and restore a sense of balance to the face. This non-invasive procedure involves injecting dermal fillers into highly precise areas on the chin and jawline to define the jowl area, stiffen the skin, and give more definition to the lower portion of the face. Treatments can also produce a slimming effect by enhancing the cheekbones for a more chiselled appearance.
Any loose skin will be filled, giving the complexion a more hydrated and bouncy appearance. The added volume will also decrease the appearance of skin drooping or hanging folds, ensuring the contours of the jaw look visibly smoother. In addition to correcting any asymmetry, the improved definition this type of treatment delivers can also give a lifting effect to the face which will result in a tighter, refreshed and more youthful appearance.
How long will the results of jaw enhancement treatment last?
There is usually no downtime involved with this type of treatment and there will be no need for any dressings or bandages. Patients should sleep with their neck and head elevated, and avoid touching or rubbing the jaw and chin area for several days following treatment. Depending on your natural metabolism, results will typically last between six and 24 months.
