Radiesse or Juvederm for enhanced jawline/cheekbone area? ( Masculine )

Question

I've decided my first step in improving my profile would have to be an enhanced jawline/malar via filler injections, i'm looking for a chiseled masculine aesthetic look and was wondering which of the two fillers would be best, and should having this done should require multiple consults with facial plastic surgeons or would the result be the same everywhere?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Radiesse and Perlane or Voluma are very good at enahncing jawlines and giving contour and shape.  This is because they hold shape very well and can give a "structured" appearance.  What matters most however, is that you go to a very well trained physician with experience in masculine features and knows how to contour rather than line fill.  Do not go to just anyone, get an expert and do not compromise your care for distance or cost.  Cannula injections can help as well to build up the jaw and cheeks with little downtime.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Radiesse and Sculptra are used often in my practice to improve the cheeks and jawline of the face. Both are excellent stimulatory fillers.Best, DR. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

There
are a variety of different filler options such as Radiesse, Juvederm Ultra
plus, Voluma, Perlane, or Sculptra. These products do have different properties and the finer points in your
decision making process about which filler to use and why is a great topic for
discussion with your cosmetic physician. I typically like to use either Radiesse or Voluma for deeper injections
to sculpt and enhance the jawline or cheekbones. These products last longer than some others
and are more viscous, producing a result that patients are very pleased with.

Both of these products would be a good choice but we tend to steer towards Radiesse in our practice for the malar areas and jawline. Radiesse is more durable and the big question is whether you are going to like this new feature and the considerations include, among others, the 'half life' of the product - meaning how long it will last. Radiesse tends to last 40-50% longer than Juvederm and Juvederm typically lasts 8 months. Thank you for posting your question.

If you want to see how you would look with a filler enhanced jawline with only 6-8 months commitment, then try Juvederm®. IF you want a longer lasting results in that area, Radiess® would be a better choice. An expert board-certified Aesthetic Dermatologist can perform these injections in a single visit, and the results definitely differ among different injectors.

Enhancing the jawline for a more masculine appearance can be a very effective procedure. Traditionally implants added to the side of the jaw were used, but of course this is a much bigger surgical procedure, and is only usually recommended for very severe deficiencies these days. As you mentioned Radiesse and Juvederm are options for this procedure, other options include fat transfer, Volume and Sculptra. Each of the filler materials has advantages and disadvantages in terms of cost, longevity and suitability for this procedure. In general I recommend Volume rather than Juvederm for this procedure as it last longer and provides a more robust volume enhancement for this type of procedure. For patients wanting a more permanent enhancement I often recommend fat transfer, though this may require more than one procedure to achieve the desired permanent enhancement. Radiesse and Sculptra are a little more economical, but Radiuses does not have the longevity of Volume or fat transfer, and Sculptra is better to provide a more diffuse volume enhancement, rather than the more angular look you are probably looking for.

Radiesse along the jawline is a perfect choice as it is inert and non allergenic, it is firm and feels appropriate along the jawline bone, and it is long lasting (lasts up to 2 years).

Francis R. Palmer, III, MD (retired) · Answer

Radiesse works well for the jaw line, while I prefer Perlane or Voluma for the cheeks.  The idea for men is to create angularity to the face.
