A youthful appearance through a defined jawline

Of all things, the jaw area is one of the most underestimated parts of the face, for it is above all here - along the jawline - that the first signs of ageing readily show. Fillers can counteract this, give the face more contour and help towards a youthful appearance.

A fresh and youthful appearance depends far more on a well-defined facial contour than many would like to believe. The jawline, as the transition between face and neck is also called, can be more or less strongly defined for genetic reasons. In addition the elasticity of the skin diminishes more and more with age, the facial proportions sink and the chin loses its contour.

Hyaluronic acid can help against this: so-called fillers, which in the jaw area have just as much of a plumping effect as in other places in the face.

If the jawbone is accentuated by means of hyaluronic acid, several injectable treatments are carried out at various points between the face and the neck. Small deposits of fat or slackened skin are evened out and the facial features look more angular again. An outpatient treatment which has to be repeated regularly, since the body breaks the hyaluronic acid down after some time. In return the therapy involves little pain and can be carried out in the lunch break.
