JOWLS
YOUR CONCERNS
KEEP READING
Jowls develop with age as the skin loses its elasticity and the muscles in the lower face begin to sag. This can result in the appearance of loose, drooping skin around the jawline. Non-surgical treatments such as dermal fillers, skin tightening, and other rejuvenating therapies can restore definition and lift to the face.
A holistic approach is needed to treat the jowls successfully as it is caused by a number of changes to the face. The loss of subcutaneous fat in the midface alongside loss of collagen leads to a heaviness around the lower face. Nurse Coral successfully treats jowls using a variety of treatments and it continues to be one of the most common requests for treatment.
What Causes Jowling?
Jowls, the sagging skin along the jawline, are a natural result of the ageing process. As we age, our skin loses collagen and elastin, two proteins responsible for skin firmness and elasticity. This loss of structure causes the skin to sag, particularly in the lower face, resulting in the appearance of jowls. Factors such as weight fluctuations, sun exposure, smoking, and genetics can exacerbate the development of jowls. Over time, gravity causes the skin to descend, making the jowls more prominent. To address jowls, dermal fillers can restore lost volume and improve jawline definition. Non-surgical options such as laser treatments or radiofrequency can also tighten the skin to reduce sagging.
How Can Jowls Be Treated?
Jowls, the sagging skin around the jawline, are a natural result of ageing and loss of facial volume. Dermal fillers can restore volume and lift to the jawline and lower face, tightening and defining the area. Recommended treatment areas typically include the cheeks, jawline and chin to help disguise the appearance of jowls and improve structural support to the mid face.
For more advanced treatments, skin-tightening procedures like Morpehus8 or SofWave provide non-invasive options to stimulate collagen production, tightening and lifting the skin for a more youthful profile.
