About the Condition

Discover effective treatments to redefine a sagging jawline

Sagging jowls, commonly referred to as a sagging jawline, is characterised by a loss of definition along the lower face. As we age, our skin naturally produces less collagen and elastin, leading to reduced firmness and elasticity. Gravity, combined with other factors such as significant weight fluctuations, genetics, and environmental damage, can exacerbate the issue. A sagging jawline may contribute to a heavier or aged appearance, affecting overall facial balance.

Whether you’re aiming to combat early signs of sagging or seeking more significant rejuvenation, Smooth Dimensions offers a variety of treatment options tailored to help restore jawline definition.

Condition Causes

Common causes for sagging jowls

Sagging jowls is primarily caused by the natural ageing process, during which the skin gradually loses collagen, elastin, and underlying fat support. This decline in structural proteins makes it difficult for skin to resist the pull of gravity, leading to sagging tissue around the jawline. Other contributing factors include genetics, prolonged sun exposure, and lifestyle elements such as smoking, which can accelerate collagen breakdown. Significant weight loss or fluctuations may also contribute to sagging by leaving excess skin in the lower face.

Understanding these causes can guide the selection of the most effective treatments to restore a firm, youthful jawline.
