Can Restylane Be Used to Even out Jaw Line?

The contour of the jawline can be made more straight by adding to the angle of the jaw (the back corner of the jawbone) and the sulcus between the forward area of the hanging jowl and the back edge of the chin. In this way the new jawline becomes srtraighter and the jowl seems  to disappear. Fillers can be added to the chin as well if it is receded and this makes a better profile of the angle of the neck.

I would suggest a more permanent filler material for correction of jawline abnormalities.  In our practice, fat transfer provides an excellent means to provide refinement of the jawline.  Although I am not certain what you are looking to correct, in general the pre-jowl sulcus is an area which is popularly corrected with volume enhancement.  The addition of fat to the pre-jowl sulcus provides a smoother and fuller contour of the lower jawline.  Good Luck, Dr. Corrado

Hi Klak.  While Restylane can be used in most areas of the face, we do not typically reach for it in the jawline area.  A thicker product like Perlane or Radiesse is preferred because it offers more support and structure.

hi klak,

Restylane and other fillers can be used to even out the jaw line.  Thicker fillers such as Perlane, Juvederm Ultra Plus, and Radiesse are better fillers for this purpose.  Personally I prefer Sculptra, but it is a gradual effect.  Good luck and be well.

Usually Restylane is used to add volume to specific areas.  Schedule a consultation with a board certified PS and see if your expectations are realistic.

The answer is yes.  It can be used to enhance the jawline on the profile or to hide a pre jowl sulcus from the front.  It can be placed right onto the jawbone or into the soft tissues depending on what needs to be corrected.  Best Regards Dr D.

Improvement of jaw line contour is possible with Restylane and other dermal fillers.

Jowls have typically been thought to be related to sagging. It is now understood that "jowling" and other aging changes are related to loss of soft tissue ( fat) volume.

Since dermal fillers such as Restylane restore lost volume, these injectables can improve jaw line contour.  Thicker fillers such as Perlane and products containing hydroxyapatite, such as Radiesse are usually used.

Restylane can be used to even out the jaw line. Often thicker products like Perlane or Radiesse are preferred in this area.

you can improve the contour of the jawline with filling agents and/or fat. Traditionally, we have thought of the "jowl" as a sagging process. We are learning more and more that many of the aging changes are related to volume loss and not necessarily pure sag. Injecting both in front of and behind the jowl can help restore contour and shape.

Yes, Restylane can be used to even out the jaw line.  Some of the other fillers are better suited to correct this area.  Radiesse, Perlane and Sculptra give a better result and are more long lasting.
