Lower Face Contouring

Jawline, Chin, and Marionette Lines

Article 5 of 8

A beautifully defined lower face is more than a trend-it’s a timeless marker of vitality, balance, and confidence. As we age, subtle shifts in bone structure, fat distribution, and skin elasticity can soften the jawline, flatten the chin, and deepen marionette lines, altering the harmony of our features. Building on the principles explored in our introduction to dermal filler treatments, the benefits of facial dermal fillers, upper face rejuvenation, and midface contouring, modern non-surgical contouring techniques offer a sophisticated, minimally invasive solution to these changes-helping you look as vibrant as you feel.

The Art and Science of Lower Face Contouring

Lower face contouring focuses on sculpting and restoring the jawline, chin, and marionette lines using advanced dermal fillers. Dr Adam tailors each treatment to your anatomy and aesthetic goals, delivering subtle yet transformative results. The process begins with a detailed consultation, where Dr Adam assesses facial proportions, bone structure, and the unique interplay of your features.

Key benefits include:

• Enhanced jawline definition for a chiselled, structured look
• Restoration of youthful contours by addressing sagging and volume loss
• Harmonious facial proportions, improving overall symmetry
• Subtle, natural-looking enhancement—never overdone
• Non-surgical, with minimal downtime and immediate results

Jawline: The Foundation of Facial Balance

A sharp, well-contoured jawline is universally associated with strength and youth. Over time, bone resorption and soft-tissue changes can cause loss of crispness. Dr Adam strategically places dermal fillers along the jaw to:

• Build definition and structure
• Mask early jowling
• Support the lower face for a lifted appearance

This bespoke approach ensures results that accentuate your unique bone structure rather than mask it.

Chin Enhancement: Subtle Changes, Dramatic Impact

The chin plays a pivotal role in facial harmony. A recessed or under-projected chin can make the lower face appear less defined and accentuate marionette lines. Chin fillers can be used to:

• Improve projection and balance
• Refine the facial profile
• Smooth transitions between the jawline and neck

Even modest enhancements can dramatically elevate your proportions and boost self-confidence.

Marionette Lines: Restoring Smoothness and Youth

Marionette lines—vertical creases running from the corners of the mouth to the chin—are a telltale sign of ageing. They result from bone and fat loss, skin laxity, and repetitive movements. Dr Adam treats marionette lines by:

• Replacing lost volume with hyaluronic acid–based fillers
• Smoothing deep creases for a softer expression
• Supporting adjacent areas (chin, jawline) to achieve comprehensive rejuvenation

When administered with artistry and anatomical precision, these treatments restore a refreshed, approachable look without altering your natural expressions.
