Jawline Filler for Contouring

With the rise of social media and Zoom meetings, many people have become self-conscious about their side profile and are seeing remarkable Jawline Contouring before and after photos. A well-defined jawline is one of the hallmarks of a youthful face. A sagging jawline and jowls are created as we age due to the decrease in skin elasticity and weakened facial support structures. In addition to aging, genetics also plays a role in the projection and definition of the jaw and chin area.

At ICON Dermatology & Aesthetics, a number of jawline contouring procedures are available depending on the patient’s needs and goals. Treatments can be combined for optimal results, including:

 

Through the use of dermal fillers we can augment, contour, and define the jawline to create a more balanced, natural-looking facial structure and profile.  Optimizing the jawline helps to create definition in the lower third of the face. When injected in combination with the cheeks, it can create a more balanced, youthful appearance. You can trust our board-certified dermatologists to help you achieve the look you desire safely, using only proven, effective treatments.

If you want to know how dermal fillers can improve the appearance of your jawline, please call ICON Dermatology & Aesthetics today at (301) 810-3600 for a consultation and examination. Our state-of-the-art facility in North Bethesda welcomes patients from Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, DC.

Goals for Jawline Filler Treatment

Patients have different goals in mind when visiting our dermatologists for jawline fillers. These goals commonly vary by age, ethnicity, and gender. For example, younger patients are usually focused on jawline contouring, while an older person may want to correct jowling. During your initial consultation, our board-certified dermatologists will evaluate your facial structure and profile and have a discussion with you regarding your goals for jawline filler treatment. Here are some common goals for this treatment:

  • Reduce the effects of age-related volume loss in the lower face

  • Reduce the appearance of jowls

  • Contour the jawline, giving it a sharper appearance

  • Balance an asymmetrical jawline

  • Strengthen or add proportion to the chin

  • Provide a strong foundation and frame for the face

 

The good news is that you have plenty of dermal filler options if you are seeking a safe, non-surgical, non-invasive option for jawline filler. At ICON Dermatology & Aesthetics, it is our goal to help you meet all your aesthetic needs at our office. We offer all the latest and most advanced dermal fillers so that we can provide you with a range of options to ensure you can achieve the appearance you want.

Some of the fillers we use for jawline augmentation include:

  • Restylane Lyft

  • Restylane Defyne

  • RHA 3

  • RHA 4

  • Radiesse

Each of these fillers is unique and offers different advantages depending on your personal goals.  Our board-certified dermatologists only use fillers that have been proven safe for jawline contouring injections. In certain cases, our physicians may treat the lips using a cannula to minimize swelling and bruising, allowing for an easier recovery.

Recovery After Jawline Contouring Injections

While our physicians use advanced injection techniques to minimize bruising and swelling, you may still experience these side effects. It is common for your jawline to appear swollen at first. The swelling will subside within a week or two.  Applying ice after injections can help to reduce swelling and bruising.

If you do experience some minor bruising, we recommend the use of OcuMend Hydrogel Pads which you can purchase in-office or from our online store. You can also cover bruising by applying makeup. Because of the possibility of bruising and swelling, we do not recommend having jawline filler injections immediately before a big event. Give yourself time for healing to make sure you look your absolute best.

What Other Treatments Can Improve my Jawline and Facial Profile?

The following treatments may be recommended in conjunction with jawline filler in order to maximize your results:

  • Kybella to the submentum (double chin) or jowls

  • Sofwave for non-invasive tightening of the lower face

  • PDO Max threads for lifting and contouring

  • Botox to decrease downward pull on the jawline “Nefertiti lift”

  • Chin Filler

  • Laser resurfacing to even out pigmentation and smooth lines
