Where Did Your Jawline Go? (And How Do You Get It Back?)

If your jawline is less defined now that you’re older, there are nonsurgical strategies available to enhance the contours of your lower face and jaw.

At Balcones Dermatology & Aesthetics, we offer a range of popular fillers to give your jawline a more youthful appearance and improve the overall symmetry of your face.

Board-certified dermatologist David A. Bushore, MD, is highly skilled at injecting fillers in precise areas of your face to add volume to your skin and minimize fine lines and creases in your jawline.

How aging changes your jawline

Getting older causes many changes in your body, including a decrease in the density of your bones. When you lose bone mass in your jaw, your jawline becomes less prominent, which can make your forehead, nose, and other features look larger and your overall face less symmetrical.

Because your jawline serves as the foundation of your lower face, age-related changes can affect your overall facial aesthetic. Additionally, loss of collagen can make your lower face look sunken, and saggy jowls become more noticeable.

Age-related changes can become noticeable as early as your 30s and progressively worsen with time. If you’re not interested in surgery but are ready to improve the aesthetic of your jawline, consider the benefits of fillers.

Fillers for a more attractive jawline

Dermal fillers are injectable substances that restore volume in your face, smooth out wrinkles and fine lines, and firm your skin.

Balcones Dermatology & Aesthetics offers several popular fillers, including:

Revanesse® Versa™

Revanesse Versa is a hyaluronic acid filler FDA-approved to treat moderate to severe wrinkles and restore lost facial volume around the cheeks and jaw. 

Juvédern® VOLUMA® XC

Juvédern VOLUMA XC is an injectable hyaluronic acid gel that restores volume in the face to lift the skin and give your face a more youthful, symmetrical appearance. It’s also the first and only FDA-approved filler to enhance the definition of your jawline from all angles. 

Restylane®

Restylane is a hyaluronic acid filler that can improve the definition of your chin and soften folds around the nose.

Each of these fillers provides reliable results that can last 12 months or longer. Board-certified dermatologist David A. Bushore, MD, can also provide maintenance injections as needed to help you maintain your results for years.

If you’re interested in a more dramatic change, you might be a candidate for THE AUSTIN NATURAL LIFT™.

How THE AUSTIN NATURAL LIFT™ works

THE AUSTIN NATURAL LIFT is a nonsurgical, minimally invasive face-lift procedure that focuses on restoring the contours of your jawline and cheekbones.

In addition to redefining your jawline, we can also target other areas of your face, such as sunken cheeks and hollowness under the eyes. The goal is to give you a more youthful-looking appearance without the need for surgery or downtime.

During your procedure, board-certified dermatologist David A. Bushore inserts a blunt-tipped cannula just under your skin or facial muscles and injects hyaluronic acid fillers. He uses the cannula to expertly sculpt your facial features into an elevated position.

THE AUSTIN NATURAL LIFT leaves your face feeling firmer and more youthful. Depending on your skin health, your results can last for two years or longer.
