Jowls
Non Surgical Jowl Treatment in Brattleby & Lincoln
What are jowls?
Jowls are areas of sagging skin along the jawline, typically appearing as loose or drooping tissue below the cheeks. They often develop as a result of natural ageing, loss of collagen and elastin, and changes in facial fat distribution.
Jowls can affect the overall definition of the lower face, making the jawline appear less sharp and altering the perceived balance between the chin, lips, and cheeks. While natural, they can be addressed to restore a smoother, more youthful contour.
Symptoms
Common signs of jowls include:
Sagging or loose skin along the jawline
Mild to moderate heaviness around the lower cheeks
Skin folding or softening under the jaw
Loss of lower face definition
Early “marionette” line formation
Uneven lower facial contour
Jowls may worsen gradually with age but can also be influenced by lifestyle, genetics, and prior weight fluctuations.
Causes
Jowls form due to a combination of factors:
- Loss of collagen and elastin with age
- Natural descent of fat and soft tissue in the lower face
- Skin laxity from ageing or sun damage
- Bone resorption in the jawline
- Repeated facial movements and gravity
- Genetic predisposition
They are a natural part of ageing but can be softened or delayed with targeted treatment.
Who can it affect?
Jowls can affect adults of all ages, but typically become more noticeable in the late thirties and forties onward.
They are particularly common in people who:
- Have thinner or less elastic skin
- Experience natural lower face volume loss
- Have significant sun exposure or environmental damage
- Desire improved jawline definition and lower face contour
Early intervention can prevent progression and maintain facial balance.
Treatment Options
Treatment focuses on restoring structure, improving skin elasticity, and lifting the lower face to create a smoother, more defined jawline.
A combination of filler, regenerative, and collagen-stimulating treatments often achieves the most natural, long-lasting results.
Soft Tissue Fillers
Dermal filler are used to enhance jawline definition and add subtle lift to the lower face. They can help:
- Reposition soft tissue to reduce sagging
- Improve jawline definition
- Smooth marionette lines
- Restore lower face balance
Treatment is tailored to individual facial structure to maintain natural proportions.
HArmonyCa
HArmonyCa combines hyaluronic acid with collagen stimulation, helping lift sagging tissue while improving skin firmness.
It is particularly effective for:
- Lower face sagging
- Loss of jawline support
- Subtle skin tightening
- Combined rejuvenation of jaw and cheek areas
SkinPen Microneedling
SkinPen stimulates collagen production to strengthen the skin and improve elasticity.
It can help:
- Reinforce sagging skin
- Improve texture and firmness
- Support filler treatments for enhanced longevity
- Smooth early jowl formation
Julaine
Julaine contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) microsphere’s, which sit in the deep dermis and subcutenous layer and activate fibroblasts for supporting collagen.
It improves skin quality and mild or moderate jowling when combined with other treatments.
Polynucleotides
Polynucleotides support tissue regeneration, skin repair, and elasticity improvement. They can help:
- Strengthen the skin’s structural support
- Improve resilience in sagging areas
- Complement filler treatments
- Maintain results over time
By combining soft tissue fillers, collagen-stimulating treatments, and regenerative support, we can restore a smoother jawline and natural lower face contour, creating subtle, elegant results that maintain proportion and balance.
