Is Jawline Filler Painful?

The procedure is painless. However, patients might feel pressure as the filler is injected and manipulated into place. Patients can expect soreness, swelling, and bruising for a few days after treatment. Ice packs or cold compresses are recommended to relieve these symptoms.

How Many Appointments Will I Need?

Most patients will need two appointments for optimal jawline filler results. The initial treatment is to achieve the overall desired jawline contour, whereas the follow-up appointment after a few months is done to detail the contour after the filler has initially settled and the swelling has subsided.

How Long Until I See Results?

The results are immediate and only get more visible after the swelling subsides during the first week.

Can I Combine Jawline Filler With Other Procedures?

Jawline Filler

Introduction

Introduction to Jawline Filler

A sharp, crisp jawline is one of the hallmarks of a youthful and attractive face. As we age, the lower face can lose definition as certain changes occur — we start to lose fat deposits that are key to helping shape the lower cheeks, and we lose elasticity in the skin. Even a slight loss of fat and elasticity can impact the lower cheeks, jowls, and jawline. Smile lines around the nasolabial fold can deepen, jowls may sag, and lines appear on the chin. The lower face can look older as the firm contours disappear. Adding volume under the skin in the lower cheeks and jawline can restore a firmer, more youthful lower face. At LM Medical NYC, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Morgan Rabach offers jawline filler treatment in New York City at two convenient locations in Greenwich Village and the Upper East Side to improve the contour of the jawline.

What is Jawline Filler?

The chin, jawline, and lower cheeks are all connected. When volume is lost under the skin in the lower cheeks, the skin, and fat pockets can sag. This creates lines and the beginning of jowls that make the face look older. Facial filler injections can be used to restore volume and firmness in the lower cheeks and define the jawline. Filler formulas that are designed for deeper layers of the skin with more firmness can smooth lines and provide a “lifting” of the skin in the lower face for a younger appearance.

What’s the first step?

The first step in getting jawline fillers in New York City is to schedule a consultation with board-certified dermatologist Dr. Morgan Rabach. During the consultation, she will examine your face and discuss your treatment goals and expectations. This information helps determine the filler type and amount that’s right for you, as well as the depth and locations of the injections. She will also outline the risks and benefits of the procedure as well as results and recovery timelines.

It is a great time to ask any questions you might have about the procedure and share your medications and medical history. For instance, certain NSAIDs and blood thinners can increase your risk of bleeding and bruising.

Dr. Rabach might ask you to stop taking certain medications and also stop smoking if you do smoke. If you agree to move forward with the procedure, she will draft a treatment plan for you that you can take to the patient concierge for scheduling and pricing.

What to Expect on the Day of Jawline Filler Treatment

On the day of your jawline filler in New York City, Dr. Rabach and her team will receive you at the practice and get you settled in the treatment room. They will review your plan if you have any questions. Finally, Dr. Rabach will cleanse your skin and apply a topical numbing anesthetic cream. Some fillers also contain a numbing agent to ease the discomfort of the needle’s penetration. Most patients describe it as a mild sting.

Dr. Raback will inject a small volume of filler underneath your skin at various target spots with an ultra-fine needle and massage it into place to achieve the desired aesthetic structure.

The outpatient procedure takes 10 to 20 minutes. You go home soon after treatment.

Jawline Filler Recovery

Patients can expect mild bruising or swelling after the procedure. These side effects will abate in a few days. Cold compresses can minimize any discomfort.

Patients can return to work right away. Strenuous physical activity should be avoided for 24 hours.
