Overview

"Jowls" or bulldog face refer to the flaccidity that occurs on the mandibular line (jawline), causing facial features to sag, giving an aged appearance. At our Aesthetic Center, we have a variety of treatments to combat this condition and recover facial firmness.

Why do I have jowls and how can they be eliminated?

Natural aging: Over time, the skin loses elasticity and collagen, which causes the appearance of jowls. Treatments like Botox and hyaluronic acid fillers help correct flaccidity and restore facial contour.
Weight changes: Significant weight variations can affect skin firmness in the chin and cheek area. Sculptra and Radiesse are excellent for stimulating collagen and returning firmness.
External factors: Sun exposure and environmental damage can also worsen the condition. In these cases, we suggest treatments such as chemical peels and PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma).

What type of treatments exist to improve jowls?

At our Aesthetic Center, we offer various treatments that help correct jawline flaccidity without surgery. Some of the most effective are:

Botox: Helps relax muscles and smooth the appearance of skin in sagging areas.
Hyaluronic Acid Fillers: Fill areas that have lost volume, improving facial definition.

Sculptra: Stimulates collagen production, improving skin firmness in the long term.

Facial Radiofrequency with Accent Prime: Improves flaccidity by stimulating collagen at a deep level.

Radiesse: A filler that stimulates collagen production, providing a lasting solution.
Intense Pulsed Light: Helps revitalize the skin and improve tissue tone and texture.

Do jowls worsen over time?

Yes, jowls tend to worsen with age if not treated properly. As the body produces less collagen and elastin, flaccidity is accentuated. However, with treatments like Sculptra or Accent Prime radiofrequency, it is possible to prevent their progress and improve skin appearance.

What types of jowls are there?

Skin flaccidity: Characterized by loss of firmness in the skin of the jawline and chin.
Muscle flaccidity: Occurs when the muscles supporting the skin also lose tone, aggravating skin sagging.

What results can I expect with the treatments you offer?

Results vary by treatment and patient characteristics. In general, treatments like Sculptra and Radiesse offer progressive and lasting improvements. On the other hand, hyaluronic acid fillers and Botox provide immediate effects. At our Aesthetic Center, we design a personalized plan for each patient, guaranteeing the best results.
