Correction of the jaw shape is a popular treatment that is carried out both for aesthetic and health reasons. An uneven or asymmetrical jaw is a reason for many complexes. Aesthetic medicine treatments are an effective solution in this matter. Collagen and elastin disappear in the body over the years, due to which the face oval becomes disturbed and the skin becomes droopy. Discover some reliable methods for jaw modelling!
Indications for jaw treatments
Jaw treatments should be carried out in defined cases. Indications for treatments of this type are above all:
- fuzzy jawline or face oval,
- droopy cheeks,
- sagging facial skin.
- pyramid of age.
Lifting with the use of 4D threads
The use of 4D lifting threads in the case of jaw treatments enables to restore its proper shape and to get rid of droopy cheeks, i.e. so called ‘hamsters’. During the treatment, a local anaesthesia is applied. The treatment itself is painless and completely safe.
Lifting threads stimulate the regeneration of collagen fibres and support the elastin synthesis. Thanks to that, the tissues lifted during treatment become firm and dense.
4D lifting threads are equipped with special hooks that embed into the skin. Such a mechanism enables to tighten the thread along with the skin. By using the threads, it is possible to lift drooping cheeks or to get rid of nasolabial folds, as well as to highlight the jawline.
What is important, in the place where the thread runs, an additional collagen is produced that supports and extends the lifting effect after absorption of the thread. The threads are being absorbed from 6 to 12 months.
Injections with hyaluronic acid
This is one of the most popular methods in terms of jaw treatments. It consists in the application of the hyaluronic acid in chosen points near the jaw. This treatment is applied above all in order to highlight the jaw contours. The amount of the hyaluronic acid injected during the treatment depends on proportions of the face. The most important thing is to fill effectively the space between the chin and the cheeks.
The hyaluronic acid injections are painless and carried out using a local anaesthesia. Jaw modelling with the use of the cross-linked hyaluronic acid brings an anti-aging effect desired by many people.
The hyaluronic acid is also applied in combined therapies. It is excellent for face oval modelling after treatments with the use of lifting threads.
Must the treatments be repeated?
An undeniable advantage of the treatments with the use of hyaluronic acid is that the effects last for a long time. Usually from 10 to 22 months. After this period, the acid is absorbed by the body. The treatment can be repeated then. What is important, subsequent treatments usually bring even more durable effects.
Botox injections
The botulinum toxin, i.e. the popular Botox, has many medical properties that are commonly used in aesthetic medicine treatments. Botox is frequently used among others in jaw correction treatments.
The treatments with the use of Botox can be directed into the modelling of the face and improvement of its oval. Botox is also used in the treatment of such afflictions as bruxism that manifests itself through the teeth grinding. Furthermore, the botulinum toxin has a positive impact on firmness and resiliency of the skin.
