Non surgical treatment of jowls

Tanveer Janjua, MD answers: Options for correcting loose jowls?

Have had a neck lift 3 years ago - and am now seeing the ever slight looseness on my jowl line.  Would like to avoid a face lift, but am wary about the thread lifts - anything else out there??

Yes, you can avoid surgery and still treat it with fillers. The key is to fill the areas between the jowls and your chin. The reason you notice the jowls is because of the depression between your jowls and chin called , prejowl sulci.

Any filler can be used to achieve this goal. You should try something reversible such as Juvederm or Restylane to see if you like the results. If you like it then you can try something longer lasting like Sculptra
