Jawline Filler injections

Home Plastic Surgery | Cosmetic Surgery Jawline Filler injections

Jawline contouring treatment is a cosmetic procedure during which a plastic surgeon reshapes or adds some volume to the jawline, enhancing its structure. After the treatment, the margin between the jawline, neck, and other facial features becomes more prominent.

The most common treatment for jawline contouring involves administering injections, which use dermal fillers. This treatment is considered a more viable alternative to surgical jawline contouring.

Jawline filler injections are mainly used to:

  • Give your jawline a sharper appearance
  • Balance the overall symmetry of the jawline
  • Add more volume and proportion to the chin
  • Make the jawline more oval-shaped
  • Reduce the aging impact on the jawline
  • Fix disoriented jowls

Who is an Ideal Candidate for Jawline Contouring Injections?

Jawline contouring injections are a safe and effective treatment for most people. Generally, men and women who want a noticeable improvement in their jawline are good candidates for this treatment. A good candidate for this treatment is the one who:

  • Has wide or weak jawline
  • Has enlarged jawbones or mandibles
  • Is physically fit
  • Is an adult
  • Is mentally stable
  • Has realistic expectations about the outcome

In general, your aesthetician will look into several factors to determine your candidacy for this non-surgical jawline contouring treatment. Those factors include:

  • Your facial structure
  • Your skin elasticity
  • Concerns that you have about your jawline appearance
  • Your cosmetic goals

Pre-Treatment Instructions

The pre-treatment preparation for jawline contouring injections starts with a detailed discussion with your surgeon. The surgeon will explain to you everything, including the procedure, what to expect from it, and treatment costs.

Once the initial consultation concludes, you will have to go for a quick checkup, during which the jawline contouring surgeon will look through your medical history and review your current medications. They will also check your jawline physically and take some photos of it.

It is a general instruction to adopt healthy lifestyle changes before getting this treatment. For instance, you will need to stop smoking and alcohol consumption. Moreover, the surgeon may advise you to stop taking any blood thinners, like aspirin.

Jawline Contouring Procedure

Jawline filler injection therapy is a non-surgical and outpatient procedure. This procedure takes about 30 minutes to complete and causes little to no discomfort, provided that the surgeon uses the correct method to administer these injections.

These injections mainly utilize muscle relaxants administered directly into the masseter muscle at the rear of the jaw. As a result, the tightened muscle tissues get relaxed, reducing the square shape of the jawline. You may need to receive multiple injections, depending on the size of the masseter muscle and the results you want to achieve.

This treatment is a great way to sculpt your jawline into your desired shape because it is practical, doesn’t involve shaving or cutting the bone, and requires no stitches once it concludes. On top of that, it doesn’t carry the risk of infections. The results of jawline filler injections generally last four to six months. However, follow-up sessions every few months can help extend those results significantly.

What to Expect after Jawline Contouring?

Jawline contouring injection therapy leads to a quicker and smoother recovery. Hence, you can resume your routine activities immediately after the procedure. However, expect minor bruising, swelling, and redness on the injection sites. Here is a quick overview of how long these complications last.

  • Bruising: This complication is the most likely by-product of injections. However, it generally doesn’t last more than 30 minutes.
  • Swelling: There will be minimal swelling after jawline injection therapy, and it will subside in 24 hours.
  • Soreness: While this complication is somehow inevitable, it can be alleviated quite easily with the help of cold compresses. Generally, the cold compress application at the clinic is sufficient to deal with the soreness.

You will notice a much softer jawline a week after the treatment. Doctors usually recommend evaluating the outcome after three months of the first treatment session to see if further treatment is required. You will need a maximum of three treatment sessions, depending on the size of your jaw muscle.

What Is the Alternative Treatment to Jawline Contouring Injections?

Your doctor may consider the surgical method if you cannot benefit from injection-based jawline contouring treatment. During a surgical procedure, the surgeon will remove the outer layer of the lower jaw or trim some muscle mass to achieve the desired outcome. Like other surgical methods, this jawline contouring treatment is invasive and has a higher risk of complications.
