A jawline recontouring refers to a cosmetic procedure that uses injectable fillers to sculpt a refined jawline and a strong chin. The procedure also usually includes enhancing the cheekbones and filling in the hollow areas under the eyes to increase the youthful appearance of the face. Recontouring the jawline will give your face a more masculine and sculpted appearance. Dr. Steinbrech will artfully determine which areas of your jawline to refine and sculpt to give you your desired results.
Why Have a Jawline Recontouring Procedure?
You should consider having a jawline recontouring procedure if you want to increase your confidence level and your happiness with your physical appearance. The areas of the face around the chin and jawline may start to sag and lose definition as your skin loses collagen and elasticity as you age. External factors such as sun exposure, smoking, and pollution can also negatively affect the skin around your jaw and face. While losing volume in the skin of your face over time is a natural occurrence, this could make your face appear less defined and make you look older than you actually are.
Dr. Steinbrech can help reverse the effects of time and aging by artfully sculpting your jawline in just the right places to make you look decades younger. A strong jawline is also associated with a strong personality, so recontouring your jawline would be an effective technique to make you seem more assertive and dominant in both professional and social situations.
If you want to appear more masculine, more youthful, and more sculpted, a jawline recontouring procedure may be the right choice for you. The procedure will enhance your natural features, not change them, so that you won’t lose the unique physical traits that make you who you are. A jawline recontouring procedure will make you feel more confident when you look in the mirror every morning. After all, if you look good, you feel good. These feelings of self-confidence and satisfaction from your procedure will positively affect all areas of your life.
Jawline Recontouring Procedure
The actual jawline recontouring procedure consists of Dr. Steinbrech creating your desired jawline by sculpting your jaw and chin with injectable fillers, such as hyaluronic acid fillers or collagen-stimulating fillers. Some fillers, such as Sculptra, stimulate the body to produce new collagen over time. Replacing lost collagen in your face will fill it out and make you look more youthful. As there are many options to choose from, Dr. Steinbrech will use his many years of experience using injectable fillers to determine the filler most appropriate for your procedure.
Because Dr. Steinbrech uses injectable fillers, the jawline recontouring procedure is considered to be minimally invasive, unlike procedures such as facelifts. The procedure should only take fifteen to twenty minutes from start to finish. Many patients even come in during their lunch break to get the procedure done. Dr. Steinbrech will use a local anesthetic or give you oral pain medication before the procedure starts. You may feel slight discomfort during or after the procedure, but you should not experience any pain. Unlike many other cosmetic procedures, you will not need to designate time for recovery after your jawline recontouring procedure. You can continue normally with your day as soon as the procedure is over.
*Each patient is unique and individual results may vary.
The risk of side effects from a jaw recontouring procedure is very low, but may include bruising, swelling, and redness at the injection site. There is also a possibility of the filler showing up under the skin as tiny bumps, but this problem would lessen over time. While the decision to undergo a jaw recontouring procedure should not be taken lightly, the actual procedure is virtually painless and does not last very long.
Patients usually see the most success with their jawline recontouring procedure if they attend multiple sessions. An average of three injection sessions over a time period of a few months will typically achieve the best results. Dr. Steinbrech will help determine the correct amount of sessions that you need to achieve the results you desire.
Are You A Good Candidate?
You could be a candidate for a jawline recontouring procedure if you are a man trying to increase self-confidence while also remaining true to your vision of yourself. If you are dissatisfied with a weak or aging jawline and chin and you want to appear decades younger as well as more muscular, you should consider the jawline recontouring procedure. Excellent candidates for a jawline recontouring procedure are men who desire to appear more masculine, youthful, and confident in who they are. Dr. Steinbrech will help you decide if the procedure is the right choice for you.
