So as the title states, I have mini jowls forming on both sides of my face. I smoked cigarettes for about 5 years, never wore sunscreen and tanned in the sun every summer and now I’m developing these ugly things. I quit smoking 3 years ago, and I have started taking my skincare more seriously and added a daily spf to my routine. What else can I do to treat them? Should I start with Botox to prevent them from sagging even more?
Answer: Morpheus 8 Hi @moonmomma95! I recommend Morpheus 8. Morpheus8 is a non-surgical treatment for full body skin resurfacing, skin tightening, and fat reduction of stubborn areas. It uses minimally invasive fractional radiofrequency energy (RF) to penetrate the skin deeper than other microneedling devices, triggering the skin’s natural healing response to promote skin tightening and lifting. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Answer: Jawline Definition / Jawline Enhancement / Facial Sculpting / Facial Contouring -- injectable fillers like Revanesse Versa For a more defined jawline to strengthen your profile (and help prevent the dreaded jawline "jowl" sagging), we use injectable fillers like Revanesse Versa - a filler known to limit swelling and give subtle, soft enhancements - or Radiesse. Using a cannula to limit pain and swelling, we inject on the bone in strategic points to get more lift and shaping, resulting in a more contoured lower face and defined, structured jawline. Additionally, there are great lasers and microneedling with radiofrequency like Morpheus 8 which tightening the skin while also improving skin tone and texture. I always think of a comprehensive combination approach to reaching one's goals, and in your case I think a combination between skincare, lasers, and fillers would offer you the best results with botox on the lateral side (crow's feet). Given you are close by, I hope to see you soon in West Hollywood! Best, Dr. Emer.
