Question

Hi doctors . I did radiess in the past for my mid face but still feel there is something missing in my face in terms of youth and sculpting ! I’d like to do a filler that makes me look younger and natural . Any recommendation ? Also I’d like to know what areas I should focuse on ?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

There are many options for jawline contouring for most men we like bellafill or radiesse with sculptra for volumization.  other options include:
1) implants
2) fat or HA filler injections
3) botox for masseter hypertrophy or platysma muscle/neck bands
4) ThermiRF/J plasma/Inmode faceTite, Thermage or Ultherapy skin tightening
5) PDO Novathreads or instalift threads for lifting
6) Neck or facelifting surgerySee an expert who treats many men.  Best,  Dr. Emer.

Sculptra, Radiesse, Bellafill can all be used to temporarily improve definition of the jawline. A more permanent solution would include jawline liposuction, necklift and/or mandibular angle implants. Males typically require more syringes of filler to obtain a visual and noticeable difference. Good luck

The best fillers for jawline contouring are Restylane Lyft or Radiesse.  A firm filler is desired for best results.  In your case you may also want to consider neck tightening to enhance definition of the jawline.  J plasma/Renuvion is the best neck tightening procedure in my opinion.

Hello,
This dermal filler is a good choice for jawline definition. It has decent longevity and good structure. You often need multiple treatments to build the jawline up, but if you don't fancy surgical implants then Radiesse is a good choice. 
I'd consider filler to bring your chin forward a touch too to improve your profile and really define your jaw.
Thanks!

You can put just about any filler in the jawline. You want one that holds structure well. Radiesse actually works well in the jawline. That is my go to for jawline in male patients, in particular. I'm also a big fan of Sculptra as well. It works differently as a bio stimulant that induces collagen. After a few months there is more fullness due to the collagen production. You must be careful because there can be nodule formation with Sculptra so some areas of the face need a lower concentration of it to decrease that risk. Looking at your profile you may also consider augmenting the chin as well with filler or implants. Filler, unfortunately is not permanent so you are looking at a touch up in 1-2 years depending on the amount and type of filler.Good luck

Ideally you would consider a long term solution with facial implants from an effectiveness and cost perspective. Augmentation of your jawline at the angle will enhance the 'definition and strength' of the facial contour/mirror view; and also consider chin contouring. Fillers are short term; and one needs a fair amount to properly establish an esthetic contour; and are very technique dependent
