What is Jawline?

The line extending from the tip of the chin to both ears is called the jawline. Several factors play a role in determining the shape of the jawline. These factors include body fat ratio, genetics, and bone structure. In today’s aesthetic understanding, a sharp jawline is considered desirable.

However, not everyone is this lucky, so they resort to the jawline procedure to create sharp lines. In the jawline procedure, which is one of the non-surgical aesthetic procedures, various fillers are used to make facial features more symmetrical. Since no incisions are made, there are no scars after the procedure. Generally, women's jawlines are triangular, while men's are quadrangular.

Naturally, men's jawlines are much sharper and more noticeable than women's. Although sharp jawlines are an accepted aesthetic concept for men, women have also started to prefer them in recent times. If the jawline is not sharp and is small, the jowl area becomes more prominent, leading to an undesirable aesthetic appearance. Jawline filler is used to eliminate this appearance.

How is Jawline Filler Applied?

Before starting the procedure, the areas to be filled are determined. The selection of the area considers not only the specialist's opinions but also the patients' ideas. Then, an anesthetic cream is applied to ensure that patients do not feel any discomfort or pain. It is necessary to wait for a while for the cream to take effect.

Before the filler procedure, the type of filler needed by the patient is decided. The required amounts of filler are then injected into the designated areas.

Patients can return to their daily lives immediately after the procedure. However, it is essential to follow the doctor's recommendations; otherwise, the durability will be significantly reduced.

The filler materials used in jawline applications have lifting properties. Hyaluronic acid can be preferred, as well as calcium hydroxyapatite fillers, which are the main components of bones. Since these fillers naturally occur in the body, they do not cause any side effects.

When is Jawline Filler Applied?

Jawline filler can be applied to anyone who is not satisfied with their jaw structure. Situations where chin filler is needed include:

  • Disproportionate chin and lips
  • Short chin structure
  • Soft chin tip
  • Round face shape
  • Sagging face with age
  • Wrinkling neck skin
  • Short jawline
  • Sagging jowl area
  • Narrow chin tip
  • Chin positioned further back than necessary
  • Volume loss in the jawline
  • Asymmetrical jawline

Who Can Get Jawline Filler?

Chin filler can generally be applied to anyone. However, the general health condition of the person should be good. Additionally, the chin bones should have completed their development. In some cases, jawline filler can be applied together with facelift operations. However, if the person has a chronic disease, it should be reported to the specialist.

What are the Advantages of Jawline Filler?

Since jawline filler is not a surgical procedure and anesthesia is not applied to patients, it offers many different advantages. These advantages include:

  • Reduces sagging in the jowl area.
  • Provides a more aesthetic facial appearance.
  • Makes the facial structure look stronger.
  • Improves the proportion between the neck and the jowl.
  • Gives a more elegant facial expression.
  • Very short recovery time.
  • Corrects irregularities in the jawline.
  • No stitches mean no scars after the procedure.
  • Makes the chin tip more prominent.
  • Reduces wrinkles on the chin.
  • Being a non-surgical procedure, it is more cost-effective.

Post-Jawline Filler Care

It is necessary to follow the instructions given by the specialist after the chin filler procedure. The post-application process varies depending on individuals' skin structure. Generally, the process after the procedure develops as follows:

  • Sensitivity and redness may be seen in the application area after the procedure. While this is expected, it usually subsides within a few days.
  • Cold compress application is recommended for the application area after the procedure.
  • The area should be protected from the sun.
  • Heavy exercises should be avoided for a while after the procedure.
  • Swelling needs to subside for the results of the procedure to become apparent.
  • Follow-up check-ups are necessary after chin filler.
