As the aging process takes its course, facial volume diminishes due to the shrinking of fat pads that provide support to the skin, accompanied by a reduction in the underlying bone structure. The skin, lacking its former support, descends, resulting in the formation of lines from the nose to the mouth, jowls, and a sagging jawline. This phenomenon can also occur following significant weight loss.

Many patients who seek treatment can physically demonstrate their desired effect by using their hands to pull back the excess skin, revealing the definition they wish to restore in their jawline.

Fortunately, there are highly effective, safe procedures available with no downtime to reverse the signs of aging and restore a defined, lifted jawline.
