Is Jawline Reshaping Painful?

When it comes to jawline reshaping, how much discomfort you’ll feel really depends on the method used. For non-surgical options like dermal fillers or Kybella®, most people describe the experience as pretty manageable—think of just a little pinch or pressure, especially since local anesthetic is used. If you’re going the surgical route, you will receive “twilight” IV sedation administered by board-certified anesthesiologists to keep you comfortable and safe during your surgery

How Many Appointments Will I Need?

The number of appointments for jawline reshaping can vary depending on the method you choose. If you opt for non-surgical treatments like dermal fillers, you might only need one session to achieve the desired results. Touch-ups could be recommended every six months to a year to maintain that sharp look.

How Long Until I See Results?

If you choose non-surgical options like dermal fillers, you can usually see results almost immediately after the procedure. For surgical jawline reshaping, the results may take longer to reveal themselves fully. While you’ll notice an improvement initially, it generally takes a few months for the final results to settle in and for any residual swelling to disappear.

Can I Combine Jawline Reshaping With Other Procedures?

Absolutely! Several of our patients opt for treatments like chin augmentation, which can further refine the balance of your facial features. If you’re considering non-surgical options, dermal fillers for the cheeks or lips can create a more harmonious facial profile. Surgical options, like neck liposuction or a facelift , can also complement jawline reshaping by addressing other areas of the face and neck for more comprehensive rejuvenation.

What Are the Risks Associated With Jawline Reshaping?

Though safe, jawline reshaping comes with some potential risks, such as swelling, bruising, or discomfort at the treatment site. Surgical options may have additional risks, like infection, scarring, or asymmetry, which could require further adjustments. Adverse reactions to anesthesia, especially for more invasive procedures, are also possible. It’s essential to discuss all these potential risks during your consultation at the practice of Dr. Michelle Copeland and Dr. Libby Copeland-Halperin in New York City so you can make an informed decision.

What to Expect on the Day of Jawline Reshaping Surgery

We perform jawline reshaping surgery in our fully accredited operating room suite under “twilight” IV sedation administered by board-certified anesthesiologists to keep you comfortable and safe during your surgery. Once sedated, your surgeon will start by making incisions inside your mouth or under your chin to access the jawbone. She will then sculpt the bone and/or add an implant to create a more defined jawline.

Other techniques often performed to recontour the jawline are liposuction and/or a neck lift, which involves removing excess fat and skin and tightening the muscles around the neck and jawline to enhance definition.

For non-surgical options, like dermal fillers or BOTOX®, your surgeon will carefully inject the chosen product into your jawline, smoothing out any irregularities and creating a more contoured jawline.

Jawline Reshaping Recovery

It is normal to experience some bruising and swelling following surgical jawline recontouring. As your jaw heals, you’ll need to stick to soft foods for a few days, and it’s important to avoid strenuous activities until you receive the go-ahead from your surgeon.

Recovery is quicker for those choosing non-surgical options like fillers or BOTOX®. You might notice some swelling or redness, but this will subside within a few hours to a couple of days.
