Jowls

That sagging or fullness of the skin below the jawline and chin that can make us look a bit older and less defined.

So, why do jowls develop? There are a few key factors. Aging naturally leads to a loss of skin elasticity and muscle tone over time. Genetics can also play a role—if your family members have jowls, you might be more likely to develop them too. Weight fluctuations can affect skin firmness, and sun exposure accelerates skin aging and sagging. Lifestyle factors like smoking and poor nutrition can also contribute to skin laxity.

But don’t worry, there are both non-surgical and surgical treatments available to help with jowls. Dermal fillers can add volume and lift to sagging areas, giving a more youthful appearance. Thread lifts use special threads to lift and tighten the skin. Ultherapy utilizes ultrasound technology to naturally lift and tighten the skin, while radiofrequency treatments stimulate collagen production to improve skin firmness.

For more severe cases, surgical options like a lower facelift or neck lift can provide dramatic and long-lasting results.

At our clinic, we offer a range of treatments to help you achieve a more defined and youthful look. If you’re concerned about jowls, come see us, and we’ll help you find the perfect solution for your needs.
