Lifting Jowls with Radiesse
It sounds like you're the perfect candidate for Radiesse. Augmenting the cheeks can actually pull excess jowl skin upward, creating a more youthful, voluminous face with less laxity. Make sure you discuss with whatever physician you choose exactly what you're looking for so they can inject accordingly. Best of luck!

Using Radiesse as a facial filler for the jowls
This is a common request and what we believe occurs is a shift in proportions of the cheeks to the jowls, thus making the jowls look less prominent. Radiesse is an excellent facial filler. Surgery90210

Lifting the jowls with Radiesse
Lifting the jowls can be accomplished by compensating for voloume loss in the cheek bone and the jaw by injecting Radiesse in the area of the upper cheek and in the chin. Radiesse provides the most lift (Called G prime) of any filler and although other fillers could also be used, Radiesse is my personal favorite to do the "heavy lifting".

Can Radiesse help improve the jowls?
The answer is a definit yes. It would be difficult to get an effect on the jowls by filling the cheeks, but I usually place some Radiesse in front of the jowls in the depression between the jowls and the chin to hide the laxity in that area. When done properly, it can look verry good and delay a facelift for several years. A lower facelift is the other solution, but you are a bit young for that operation.

Is It Possible to Lift Slightly Saggy Jowls with Radiesse Injected in the Cheeks?
In a word, no. This is an urban myth that the cheeks can be augmented using cheek implants or fillers to the point that it will lift the nasolabial folds or jowls. I have performed many cheek implant, filler injections to shape the cheeks (I prefer Perlane to Radiesse as it flows better and has far less brusing/swelling) and Face Lifts for over 25 years. IMHO, this is the primary cause of un-aesthetic cheeks...the over-filling to attempt and lift facial tissues...

Sculpting the Face with Radiesse
Radiesse is a terrific filler to help sculpt the cheeks and face. An expert physician injector can use radiesse not only to build a foundation in the midface but to help camouflage sagging jowls. Radiesse can be placed along the jawline and the "marionette" area of the mouth to create more youthful contours.
