jawline augmentation

The jawline is very important. Too strong and it can masculinize the face. Too soft and it can age the face. Dr. Vafa uses Botox®, and other toxins to soften a strong jawline caused by an enlarged masseter muscle. This can also be caused by Bruxism (excessive clenching or grinding of the teeth).

To enhance a soft jawline Dr. Vafa prefers Sculptra® or Voluma®. When done with the right technique, the lateral face and jowls can be lifted creating a youthful profile.
