Ready, set, LIFT

This beautiful woman gave us full and absolute trust to treat areas we felt would help her feel her best…


✨ AND THIS HAPPENED…✨

Transformation progress of dermal filler

Jawline & Chin is one of the most requested areas we treat. These areas require a high degree of anatomical knowledge and injection skill.

Our patient had been "spot-treated" before she met us and her chin had a "treated" look. When injectors “spot treat” the face can become disharmonious. For example, you cannot treat the jawline of a woman that has a recessed chin or you will make her look round and appear to be masculine, nor can you treat cheeks without assessing temples or you run the risk of jeopardising appearance making them look maleficent.

Our patient also had premature ageing of her jawline due to demineralisation of her mandible. The jawline was not appearing streamlined as you can see below and if we weren't careful we could have potentially made her face more bottom-heavy.

Before Treatment

To make her look as natural as possible we had to be strategic in how we treated her. The transition zones had to be augmented gently into the next without any harsh demarcation. The zones are commonly overlooked for cosmetic aesthetic benefit by both injectors and patients alike. See below for the results after her first treatment.

What are the “transition zones?”

▪️The Preauricular Sulcus
▪️The Submalar
▪️The Chin Sulcus

💉 Technique

  • Balancing the chin sulcus with aliquots of product on the
    periosteum to tighten the jawline, decrease the appearance
    of jowls/marionette lines and soften the lower face shadows.

  • Augmenting the chin height and length to harmonise the
    lower face.

  • Restoring at the gonial angle on the periosteum with a
    larger bolus to provide the foundation.

  • Layering below the mandible using a cannula in the
    subcutaneous plane to fill in the structural deficiency and
    support two tissue planes, providing the LIFT.

  • Not chasing divets or folds by filling in areas that bother
    patients. This avoids making patients look stiff, puffy and
    odd-looking, particularly when smiling or talking.

🔧 Maintenance

  • Skin Care that works for you

  • Anti-Wrinkle every 3-4 months

  • Annual review of Dermal Filler, only treating when required
