Jawline Rejuvenation/Jowls: Concerns
What Is Jawline Rejuvenation/Jowls?
Jowls refer to a sagging, loose skin along the jawline and chin that can manifest as a natural consequence of ageing, weight loss or genetic predisposition, and contribute to a less defined and prematurely aged appearance. At SkinHD, we offer a number of treatments that can redefine the jawline, reduce the appearance of jowls and promote a youthful appearance.
Symptoms of Jawlinne Rejuvenation/Jowls
As we age, the skin around the jawline may succumb to the effects of gravity and decreased collagen production, leading to the development of jowls. Jowls are characterised by visible sagging of the skin, a loss of jawline definition, poor skin quality and the emergence of folds or wrinkles on the lower portion of the face. Jowls can also contribute to the feeling of heaviness or a squarer jaw.
Causes
As we age, the skin loses elasticity and typically loses volume in the mid face first. This causes the skin to begin to sag downwards, and as a results, the jawline becomes softer and loses definition.
Jowls result from a combination of intrinsic factors like collagen loss and skin laxity as we age, influenced by genetics, as well as extrinsic factors such as prolonged sun exposure and certain lifestyle choices.
Treatments
Dermal Fillers – Hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers are a popular choice for instant jawline definition and improving the appearance of jowls.
These fillers are administered by medical professionals, and expertly redefine the jawline and lifting the area to soften and reduce the appearance of jowls.
When considering jawline fillers, your practitioner may suggest starting to replace volume in the mid-face area first in a ‘top-down’ approach to help alleviate the heaviness that can be caused in the jaw area, but your personalised treatment plan will be discussed in your free consultation. The procedure is minimally invasive, and results can last up to 24 months depending on product used.

Unlike traditional fillers, skin booster treatments use a bio-remodelling approach using high concentrations of hyaluronic acid, amino acids and other ingredients to stimulate the natural production of collagen and elastin. This improves the structure of the skin over time, providing a natural looking lift and restoring volume. They offer subtle, yet effective and natural looking results that provides a lift, improves overall volume, health and youthful appearance of the lower face area. Typically a course of 2-3 treatments are required for best results.
HArmonyCA – HarmonyCA offers dual benefits of both a dermal filler for an immediate volume boost, and also of a skin booster to stimulate the long-term production of collagen and elastin that promotes sustained skin rejuvenation. With just one treatment, results are an immediate and strong volumising effect for the jawline, improved skin laxity, and smoother and healthier skin that lasts for up to 24 months.
Chemical Peels – Although chemical peels won’t dramatically lift the jawline area, a course of resurfacing treatments can help improve the skin quality in the lower face area and can also help to stimulate the natural production of collagen for improved skin structure. Chemical peels will also improve the overall tone and texture of the skin, which helps to restore a youthful radiance and glow.
Skincare – Using active ingredients such as vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, peptides and retinoids can help hydrate the skin, boost collagen production and increase cellular turnover to maintain healthy and plumped skin. Some medical grade skincare, such as tretinoin, are most effective but require a prescription, so a consultation with one of our medical prescribers is essential to ascertain suitability.
