Jawline definition and jawline contouring options using Dermal Fillers
Jawline contouring using dermal fillers has become an increasingly popular non-surgical cosmetic procedure in recent years. This treatment involves injecting hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers into specific areas of the jawline to add volume and definition, resulting in a more chiseled and contoured appearance. Jawline contouring using dermal fillers is a versatile procedure that can address a variety of common concerns, such as weak or recessed chin, lack of definition, sagging jowls, asymmetry, and more. Refer also to our dermal filler guide for more information.
In this non-surgical procedure offered at Pavilion Cosmetic Medicine, an experienced Cosmetic Doctor will perform a consultation to determine the patient’s goals and expectations, assess their facial anatomy, and develop a personalized treatment plan. The treatment itself is typically quick and relatively painless, with minimal downtime required. However, patients may experience some swelling or bruising after the procedure, and there may be some restrictions on activities for a short period of time.
Patients are typically curious about the procedure’s potential risks and complications, as well as its duration and effectiveness, and it’s important for the doctor to address these concerns during the consultation process.

- Treatment is customisable, meaning it is tailored to meet the individual needs and goals of each patient. eg. asymmetry or sagging jowls.
- Long-lasting: while the duration of the results can vary depending on the type of filler used, most patients can expect to enjoy the benefits of jawline contouring using dermal fillers for 12 months to 18 months.
