Jaw Slimming

in Vienna, VA

What Is Jaw Slimming?

Jaw slimming is a cosmetic treatment designed to create a slimmer and more defined jawline by reducing the appearance of a square or bulky jaw. It can enhance facial harmony by addressing issues such as overactive jaw muscles, excess fat, or sagging skin. Jaw slimming is often sought for aesthetic reasons, but it can also relieve discomfort caused by muscle tension. Modern non-surgical treatments provide effective results with minimal downtime.

What Are the Causes of Jawline Concerns?

Genetics
A naturally square or prominent jawline is often inherited.
Overuse of the masseter muscles, such as from teeth grinding, can enlarge the jawline.
Fat deposits in the jawline area can create a wider appearance.
Aging reduces skin elasticity, leading to sagging along the jawline.
Fluctuations in weight can affect the jawline’s definition.
