Is there a non surgical solution for an uneven jaw line/pre-jowls? (photos)

Question

Recently have started to notice that my jaw is un-even. I suffer from TMJ And have had Dysport before in my masséter muscle, but now wonder if my uneven jaw line is actually related to the bone structure of my jaw. Also, on my right side (left in photo) I’m starting to see pre-jowls and some marionette lines and general sagging of the skin. Is there a non surgical solution to give my face more symmetry?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Symmetry of the face created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra. Implants or fat are permanent alternatives. For skin tightening of the face, a combination approach will give the most improvement. I recommend J Plasma, lasers (Fraxel, Clear + Brilliant, Co2), microneedling/prp, ultherapy and rf treatments. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Everyone is asymmetric. In certain people this asymmetry is more noticeable. Attaining perfect symmetry is virtually impossible, however, it can be improved. Non-surgical options for the jowls and jawline include a combination of neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin), Fillers, Sculptra, Kybella, Ultrasound, and Radiofrequency treatments. Make sure you see an experienced physician provider for an in-person consultation and evaluation to determine which combination of treatments would be best for you. Best wishes.

Thank you for your question. Based on your photos I do not see any prominent pre-jowling or marionette lines. The quality of your skin seems to be in good shape as well. Sometimes, filler can be injected into the jawline to give a more structured and defined appearance but I would always consult an experienced injector in order to get the best results.

Hello and thanks for posting.
One of the best uses of facial fillers is to restore symmetry. This is true for many areas of the face, including the jawline. Sometimes a combination of facial fillers and Dyport may produce the best result, especially if TMJ and masseter muscle enlargement are playing a role. 
  
I hope that this information helps and best of luck to you!

Yes, fillers should be able to do an excellent job in creating more symmetry in the jawline and pre-jowl area.  A firm filler such as Restylane Lyft or Radiesse should be considered.
