The “golden ratio” refers to how faces perceived as the most attractive are generally balanced and symmetrical. At drs skincare in Hamilton, Ontario, we strive to utilize non-surgical strategies to help restore facial balance.
How does aging affect the shape of my face?
The natural aging process can alter the shape of the face. Notably, contouring services may be in your future to address a lax or droopy jawline. A defined jawline helps to support a balanced, attractive appearance. The lower part of the face may feature aesthetically pleasing proportions compared to the mid-face and upper face. However, as we age, changes occur deep within the skin and the subcutaneous tissues between the skin and muscle. These changes and the erosion of beneficial proteins like elastin and collagen result in the tissue falling or becoming lax and saggy. When this occurs, formerly compartmentalized parts of the face blend into each other. The lower portion of the face may now look out of proportion and overly heavy when compared to other parts of the face.
How can I regain my defined jawline?
First, it is important to understand the source of your concerns. Is lax skin really to blame? Or is excessive fat a bigger culprit? Depending on your needs, we can combine different therapies to restore your facial shape and improve facial balance.
Importantly, in cases where we do not believe non-surgical options will be the best choice, we will explain this to you during the consultation.
What contouring treatments may be best for me?
There are a number of non-surgical strategies that we can employ to give you the best results. During your consultation, we often combine different treatment modalities to give you a customized treatment plan.
A treatment plan may combine many of the following strategies:
- Ultherapy – builds collagen from deep layers of skin, giving a subtle lift
- Radiofrequency Microneedling – Morpheus8
- Forma
- Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing
- Neck contouring/fat reduction with Coolsculpt and/or deoxycholic acid, aka Kybella or Belkyra
- Collagen-stimulating products such as Sculptra and Hyperdilute Radiesse
- Hyaluronic acid volume replacement
- Neuromodulator with Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin
In cases where an individual is undergoing weight reduction or their body composition is changing, no treatment may be the best choice until the goal weight/body composition has been achieved.
