As we age, we lose muscle, elasticity, and collagen in our faces. Many people notice the signs of aging as their jawline loses definition. Luckily, there are a variety of options to combat this aging process. Below are just a few. Schedule a consultation to learn more about what option is best for you and your needs.
BOTOX®/Dysport
Botox and Dysport are a botulinum toxin injectable, also known as a neuromodulator. When injected into overactive facial muscles, botulinum toxin type A blocks nerve signals to temporarily prevent muscle contractions and smooth fine lines and wrinkles. Botox and Dysport can also be used to slim the jawline while improving symptoms of TMJ (jaw clenching) by injecting into the masseter muscle.
Juvéderm Voluma
Juvéderm Voluma is a hyaluronic acid filler that gently lifts and plumps the skin to address mild skin laxity and deep facial folds. The Voluma formula has a firmer texture than some other HA fillers and is injected into the deep skin layers, making it a great choice for jawline contouring.
Juvéderm Volux
Juvéderm Volux is the first and only hyaluronic acid filler designed specifically for jawline sculpting. The Volux formula is made with VYCROSS technology, which crosslinks the hyaluronic acid particles to create a firm, stable formula. When injected along the jawline and chin, this filler can improve jawline definition, improve the look of a recessed chin, and provide structure.
Morpheus8
Morpheus8 radiofrequency microneedling (RF microneedling) is a minimally invasive skin resurfacing and tightening treatment that stimulates collagen production and resurfaces healthy skin cells to improve a variety of skin conditions. Morpheus8 is a great treatment option for patients who are concerned with signs of aging as well as superficial conditions like acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, and rough skin texture.
PDO Threads
PDO threads are used in many areas of the face to lift and sculpt the facial contours. When inserted into the upper jaw (near the base of the ear), these threads will lift sagging jowls and tighten the jawline for a more angular, sculpted look. PDO threads offer immediate and long-term benefits due to their collagen-stimulating properties.
RADIESSE®
RADIESSE® is one of the first FDA-approved dermal fillers to hit the market. RADIESSE® isn’t like other fillers, which temporarily add volume to the skin while having no long-term effects. Instead, RADIESSE® supports your skin structure while stimulating collagen production. Once injected, the RADIESSE® gel acts as a scaffold, keeping everything together while your skin begins to heal. The RADIESSE® gel will be absorbed over time, causing further collagen production and speeding up the recovery process. Eventually, the RADIESSE® will be absorbed completely, and you’ll be left with natural and healthy results.
Restylane® Lyft
Like Voluma, Restylane Lyft is a hyaluronic acid filler with a dense formula that is specifically designed to contour and lift the skin. Restylane Lyft can be used to improve jowling and wrinkles in the lower face and it is also a great choice for patients who want a sharper, more defined jawline.
Sculptra® Aesthetic
Sculptra® Aesthetic is a biostimulator that helps your body produce its own collagen in the long term. Sculptra® Aesthetic is a more subtle solution than many of the other options on the market, but it also produces more natural-looking results improving the overall integrity of the skin.
