Question

Can lipolysis injections be used along the jawline to define?

Karthik Ram, MRCS, DNB · Answer

Hello, thanks for your query. Lipodissolve is FDA approved for double chin treatment. It can be used to define jawline if there is excess fat. A lot of times poor jawline definition may be due to jaw bone contour which may need augmentation with angle or chin implants. Liposuction still remains the gold standard for removal of fat from chin and jawline. Consult a board certified plastic surgeon for in person assessment.

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. I would suggest getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Lipodissolve is an excellent procedure for contouring the jawline without having to go through the risk of surgery. Depending on how much fat and the contour of your jaw bone strategic placement of a longer lasting collagen filler is another option to contour the jawline without implants. It all depends on your jawline structure and desire to do a minimally invasive vs an invasive procedure. Either way, seek someone who has significant experience in that area for treatment.
