Double Chin & Jowls
Lower Face Contouring & Structural Tightening
INTRODUCTION – UNDERSTANDING DOUBLE CHIN & JOWLS
The lower face plays a critical role in overall facial definition. Over time, changes beneath the chin and along the jawline can soften contour and reduce structural sharpness.
A double chin may result from excess submental fat, skin laxity or both.
Jowls develop as cheek support weakens and tissue gradually descends along the jawline.
These changes can occur due to ageing, genetics or weight fluctuation.
CORE BIOLOGICAL CAUSES
Lower face contour changes are influenced by:
- Collagen and elastin decline
- Fat redistribution or accumulation
- Weakening of mandibular ligaments
- Loss of mid-face support
- Gravity
- Hormonal changes
Structural descent and dermal laxity often occur together.
VISUAL & STRUCTURAL IMPACT
Double chin and jowls may:
- Blur jawline definition
- Create heaviness beneath the chin
- Affect side profile symmetry
- Contribute to facial ageing
Even mild contour softening can alter facial proportions.
TREATMENT OPTIONS AT AETERNITAS
Treatment depends on whether the concern is:
- Skin laxity
- Structural descent
- Fat volume
- Combination of all three
Aeternitas may recommend:
EXFU 11D HIFU
Deep structural tightening to support jawline definition.
Precision RF Lift
Dermal collagen stimulation for skin firming.
RF Microneedling (980+)
Surface refinement and tightening.
Cryo-Firm Contouring (where appropriate)
Surface tightening and supportive contour enhancement.
Each treatment has a dedicated technology page detailing scientific and safety protocols.
HOW WE SELECT THE RIGHT APPROACH
Consultation evaluates:
- Degree of laxity
- Submental fat presence
- Jawline support
- Skin thickness
- Age and collagen health
- Desired outcome
Some clients require deep structural tightening.
Others benefit from dermal reinforcement and contour refinement.
WHAT RESULTS TO EXPECT
Non-surgical contouring aims to:
- Improve jawline definition
- Reduce visible skin laxity
- Enhance chin-to-neck angle
- Restore lower face sharpness
Results develop progressively over 8–12 weeks.
TREATMENT EXPERIENCE
Lower face tightening treatments typically involve:
- Controlled deep energy mapping
- Mild to moderate warmth
- 30–60 minute session time
Comfort is monitored throughout.
RECOVERY & DOWNTIME
Possible temporary effects:
- Mild swelling
- Light tenderness
- Temporary tightness sensation
These typically resolve within a few days.
LONGEVITY & MAINTENANCE
Results may last 9–12 months depending on:
- Age
- Skin quality
- Weight stability
- Lifestyle
Maintenance sessions preserve contour definition.
MEN VS WOMEN
Men often request stronger jawline definition while maintaining masculine angles.
Women may seek smoother contour transitions and reduced jowl heaviness.
Treatment mapping is adjusted accordingly.
LIFESTYLE FACTORS
Lower face contour is influenced by:
- Weight fluctuations
- Hydration
- Diet
- Smoking
- Posture
Stable weight improves longevity of results.
WHEN TO CONSIDER SURGICAL REFERRAL
