A blurred jawline?
Facial contouring

A heavy looking jawline traces back to fat, to muscle or to sagging, sometimes to a mix of them. The first job is working out which one carries the most weight.

Book a consultation

Facial contouring is the area of care that sorts out why the jawline and lower face look blurred and then settles on a matching approach. Fat, chewing muscle, sagging and the salivary glands often look mixed together. What to address first is decided by the medical team during your exam.

  • The cause is rarely just one thing

    Even for the same heavy jawline, the approach splits depending on whether fat, muscle or sagging weighs more.

  • Adding and reducing are different in nature

    Injections that add volume and energy devices that work on the fat or firmness layers have different aims. Which comes first is decided during the exam.

Prepare your questions

You do not need to arrive knowing the cause. Just tell us how it looks to you.

  1. How it looks

    Pick one: wider, blurred, or heavy toward the bottom.

  2. Since when

    Whether it came gradually with weight change or age, or fairly recently.

  3. A habit of clenching

    If you grind your teeth or have jaw pain, let us know.

  4. Treatments you have had so far

    Filler, injections or lifting: the type and roughly when, as best you recall.

  5. Changes you want to avoid

    You can tell us what you dislike, such as not wanting the face to look hollow.

  6. Your schedule

    If swelling or bruising would be a problem on certain dates, tell us in advance.

Before your consultation

What happens in facial contouring care?

It sorts out why the jawline and lower face look blurred, into fat, muscle, sagging and so on, and then settles on a matching approach. What to address first is decided by the medical team during your exam.

How long does a session take and how long does it last?

It differs with the approach and area you settle on, and from person to person. Once the approach is set, you will be guided during your exam.

Does it hurt?

The sensation changes with the method chosen, and its strength is not the same for everyone. Say so when we talk if you expect it to be hard to bear.

Is there anything to tell you before the consultation?

Please tell us in advance about medications you take, filler, injections or lifting you have had, teeth grinding or jaw pain, and pregnancy or breastfeeding. Whether these apply is checked by the medical team during your exam.
