Jawline/Neck soft - how can I make my jawline sharper? (Photos)

Question

Looking for suggestions for lower face/neck/jaw contouring. I feel like my chin is small and my jawline is soft causing it to look very saggy. I am looking for something to make my jawline sharper. I have been thinking of Kybella for my neck but have heard negative things about it and that fillers may be a better option along my jawline to make it more prominent

Hi, I’m Lauren, the aesthetic injector here at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center. A great nonsurgical option to help achieve your goals would be filler treatments. Filler can be used to contour the chin and jawline, creating the more defined look you’re describing. Another option to consider is Kybella, which is specifically designed to reduce stubborn fullness under the chin and enhance jawline definition. I always recommend scheduling a consultation with a licensed provider to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Anna Chacon, MD, FAAD · Answer

Improving the definition of your jawline and addressing concerns about a sagging neck can be approached in several ways. Here are some options to consider:

Consultation with a Specialist:
It is crucial to consult with a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon who can assess your specific needs and recommend appropriate treatments.

Dermal Fillers:
Fillers can add volume and structure to the jawline, enhancing its definition and creating a sharper appearance. They can also be used to augment a small chin, providing better facial balance.

Kybella:
Kybella is an injectable treatment that dissolves fat under the chin, which can help reduce the appearance of a double chin and improve jawline contour. However, it is essential to discuss potential side effects and suitability with a professional.

Botox:
Botox can be used to relax certain muscles that may contribute to a sagging appearance, helping to refine the jawline.

Non-Surgical Skin Tightening:
Treatments such as Ultherapy or radiofrequency can tighten the skin around the jawline and neck, reducing sagging and improving contour.

Surgical Options:
If you are looking for more dramatic results, surgical procedures such as a neck lift or chin augmentation might be considered. These options provide longer-lasting results but involve more recovery time.

Lifestyle Considerations:
Maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine can also support skin health and muscle tone, contributing to a more defined jawline.

Each option has its benefits and considerations, so it's important to discuss your goals and concerns with a specialist who can guide you toward the most suitable treatment plan.

You will likely have the best result from a combination of treatments.  You can consider fillers to help sculpt the jawline and chin.  You can consider FaceTite and/or Morpheus8 to tighten skin.  These are minimally invasive RF treatments that require no general anesthesia.  Visit my website or a provider near you to learn more.

Lipo under local give the best jawline in just 24  hrs with minimal to no  pain at all and looks amazing.  Must combine with morpheus/quantum/facetite for best results.

A front face view would have additionally been helpful  here. However, at least from the profile views provided,  it appears that a number of issues can be treated nonsurgically via the use of appropriately selected robust HA fillers properly injected. For example, the use of an appropriate, robust HA contouring filler in the region of the posterior angle of the jawline and along the jawline would likely  diminish the sagging there and better define and straighten the jawline itself. Likewise, a robust HA volumizing filler can be used to augment the chin and increase its projection, which would not only better harmonize the projections of the nose, lips and the chin, 
You would be wise to make sure to consult an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist filler expert.Hope this helps and best of luck.
