Focus on the Jawline

The jawline can be a crucial part of facial aesthetics. A strong jawline in men is often associated with attractiveness and confidence. For women, a jawline can represent youth and beauty. We offer two approaches to refining the jawline: liposuction and injectables.

LIPOSUCTION

Liposuction of the jawline is a procedure where a skilled surgeon removes excess fat to improve the jaw’s contour. It can be done on its own or combined with other facial procedures. The results of this procedure are considered permanent for most patients.

INJECTABLES

Allergan (the maker of BOTOX and JUVEDERM) has created a product specifically for the jawline. This ​​long-lasting filler, called VOLUX, is FDA-approved and is the first and only HA filler specifically designed for jawline definition.

VOLUX is a slightly more cohesive and thicker formula than JUVEDERM VOLUMA. Both of these fillers build volume and create a lift beneath the skin, but while VOLUMA is FDA-approved for the chin and cheeks, VOLUX is FDA-approved to treat the jawline.

The procedure only takes a few minutes, and any swelling is dramatically improved within 48 hours. Results last between 12 and 18 months.
