When discussing anti-aging and facial sculpting, the conversation often centers on the mid-face, a region notably affected by wrinkles and skin laxity. However, aging signs are not limited to this area and can manifest across the face, including the jawline. Experts like Dr. Steven Dayan and Dr. Caughlin at Chicago’s Impressions Face + Body recognize this and offer versatile dermal filler treatments. These fillers are adept at addressing aging signs on various facial areas, providing a comprehensive solution to those looking to rejuvenate their appearance.

Jawline filler is a specialized use of dermal filler for the primary purpose of enhancing the shape and the jawline. Using a dermal filler on the jawline can accomplish many tasks, including softening the appearance of jowls, sharpening the jawline and chin, and refining the overall face shape. A jawline filler can restore a more youthful appearance and augment the shape of the face to enhance your natural beauty.

Like any other dermal filler treatment, a jawline filler is a non-surgical treatment that is performed by injecting a dermal filler into the sub-dermal layers of the skin. A dermal filler in this area can plump the skin and diminish other visible signs of aging. For contouring the jawline, it’s important that a skilled professional with a clear vision is performing the treatment.

One of the most important parts of this treatment is setting a clear goal for your appearance to achieve your desired aesthetic. Overall, this treatment aims to contour the jawline and chin area to refine your facial features in a natural-looking way, so the emphasis of this treatment will be to create a subtle subliminal difference that will help you look healthier and younger.

Your Jawline Filler Consultation

The consultation is an essential part of your journey with jawline filler. During this session, you can express your aesthetic aspirations and discuss any concerns about enhancing your jawline. Our specialist will examine your facial structure, focusing on the jawline area, and evaluate your skin's condition to understand your specific goals. With this insight, we will craft a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your desired jawline contour. We'll provide detailed information about the specific fillers used for jawline enhancement, their advantages, any possible risks, and what results you can expect. We aim to ensure you are fully informed and comfortable with the process, fostering a collaborative and confident treatment experience.

How to Prepare for Your Jawline Filler

You will need to do some things before and after your treatment to ensure that your jawline filler is successful and produces the desired results. For example, before your treatment, you should discontinue the use of any blood-thinning medications or supplements, such as aspirin or vitamin E, to reduce any bleeding or bruising from the treatment.

During Your Jawline Filler Procedure

Your appointment for jawline filler is designed to be both comfortable and transformative. Our dedicated team will greet you when you arrive and ensure your utmost comfort. We will then prepare the jawline area, cleaning it thoroughly and possibly applying a numbing agent to reduce discomfort. With precision and expertise, the filler is meticulously injected into specific points along the jawline, enhancing its definition and contour. The procedure duration usually ranges from 15 to 60 minutes, depending on your individual treatment plan. After the procedure, our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions to optimize the results and maintain the enhancements made to your jawline.

Jawline Filler Aftercare & Recovery Timeline

After your treatment, you should not touch or rub any of the treatment areas, as this may disturb the distribution of the filler. For the first 24 to 84 hours, you may need to sleep on your back to reduce the risk of disturbing the filler. You should avoid skin irritants and environments that may cause swelling, such as hot tubs, hot showers, saunas, strenuous exercise, or direct unprotected sunlight, including tanning beds.

Am I a Good Candidate for Jawline Filler?

If you are a good candidate for a dermal filler or have used dermal fillers in the past, you are likely also a good candidate for this treatment. Both women and men over 21 are typically qualified for this treatment. You are most likely a good candidate if you want to augment your face shape, strengthen your jawline, or sharpen your chin. A consultation will determine your eligibility for this treatment.

Jawline Filler Benefits

Using a dermal filler on the jawline may be something of a novel concept. Dermal fillers are typically used on the mid-face, but using a dermal filler for the jawline can benefit your overall appearance. Some reasons you may want to consider jawline filler in Chicago include:

Sharpen Jawline and Chin: The primary purpose of this treatment is to sharpen the jawline and the chin. Sharpening your lower face will alter your face shape to balance out your cheeks and cheekbones, make your overall appearance more healthy, and help you achieve current beauty standards. But another reason to sharpen the jawline and the chin is to diminish any skin laxity on the cheeks and neck, which can also help you look younger.
Refine Face Shape: This treatment can refine the shape of your face to help you achieve your aesthetic goals. All people are born with specific face shapes – such as oval or triangle – but the shape of your face may change over time, or the standard of beauty may shift. One of the core standards of ideal feminine beauty is a gentle, refined jawline and a triangular chin, which can be achieved with skillful jawline filler treatment.

Refining the balance of your face can create facial symmetry that can elevate your overall appearance. Focusing on refining the shape of your face by augmenting the jawline is also a good option for men, particularly those who want to strengthen the shape of their face to appear more masculine.

Improve Double Chins: A double chin is caused by excess submental fat under the chin and a moderate amount of skin laxity on the neck. When you contour the shape of your jawline and chin, you can improve the appearance of a double chin to make it less noticeable.

How much does Jawline Filler cost in Chicago?

We offer an array of dermal fillers, so the cost of your dermal fillers in Chicago varies. Please contact us for a consultation to discuss the costs of your treatment plan.

Are there any risks associated with a Jawline Filler?

Dermal fillers are generally safe, especially under the care of qualified professionals like those at Impressions Face + Body. Common risks include minor bleeding, infection risk if post-treatment care isn't followed, temporary redness, numbness, or warmth, and potential bruising or soreness at the injection site. These effects usually resolve quickly. Our team prioritizes minimizing these risks, ensuring your treatment is both comfortable and safe.

How long do Jawline Filler results last?

Jawline fillers typically last between 6 to 12 months, but this can vary based on individual factors. The longevity of the results depends on the type of filler used, your body's metabolism, lifestyle, and how your body responds to the filler. To maintain the desired appearance, we recommend scheduling follow-up appointments. During these sessions, we can make any necessary adjustments to ensure your jawline continues to look its best.

What procedures pair well with Jawline Filler?

Improving the appearance of a double chin will help you look more youthful and healthier, particularly if you combine this treatment with a fat-reducing injectable treatment like Kybella.
