FACELIFTING – JAW ANGLE AUGMENTATION
A harmonious and well-defined face is characterized by a sculpted contour. The chin and neck line, as well as the transition to the neck area, play a particularly crucial role in this. With a jawline facelift using implants, you can specifically accentuate these areas, tighten the skin, and permanently reduce both double chin and sagging cheeks.
Aesthetic procedures in the facial area allow you to achieve a balanced and harmonious facial profile. Often, even a small adjustment to the jawline can lead to a noticeable improvement. Our specialized jaw and facial surgery can sustainably optimize your facelift and boost your self-confidence.
Aesthetic Jawline Correction with Harmonious Proportions
An aesthetic correction of the jawline should be performed gently, maintaining the individual harmony of your facial proportions. This approach allows for a natural facelift that elegantly enhances your unique beauty.
The most frequently asked questions
What is a jaw angle augmentation?
The jaw angle augmentation is an aesthetic procedure in which implants are used to accentuate the contour of the lower jaw. This creates a defined chin and neck line, tightens the skin, and permanently reduces double chin and sagging cheeks.
How is the procedure performed?
Jaw angle augmentation is performed under general anesthesia through the oral cavity, ensuring that no visible scars remain. A custom-fitted implant made from biocompatible material, such as Medpor, is used.
How long does recovery take after a jaw angle augmentation?
After about two weeks, you will be fit to resume your daily activities. Swelling may persist for up to ten days. During the first four weeks, only soft foods should be consumed, and sporting activities should be avoided for six weeks.
Is jaw angle augmentation permanent?
Yes, the result of the procedure is permanent. The implant used remains stable and provides a long-lasting defined chin and neck contour.
Are there visible scars after the surgery?
No, the procedure is performed through the oral cavity, so no externally visible scars are left.
Can jaw angle augmentation be combined with other procedures?
Yes, jaw angle augmentation is often combined with chin correction or lower jaw correction to further harmonize facial proportions and achieve an optimal aesthetic result.
How does a double chin develop?
The natural jawline is located at the rear transition from the lower jaw to the neck. If this contour is weak, the face appears rounder. Over time, the cheek and neck areas “blend” as fat and skin tissue sag. By enhancing the jawline with an implant, this area can be surgically accentuated, and the skin can be tightened again.
