Jowls refer to the sagging or downward movement of skin and soft tissue along the lower face and jawline.
Facial laxity describes reduced firmness and elasticity in the skin. These changes often affect the jawline, lower cheeks and the area between the chin and neck. They reflect structural and skin-related changes rather than surface texture alone.
Dermal fillers can improve facial laxity and jowls by restoring structural support in areas that have weakened with age. Strategically placed filler rebuilds support along the jawline and cheeks, lifts sagging areas, and improves contour. As a result, the lower face appears firmer, more defined, and better balanced without surgery.
