Why Do You Develop A Wide Jawline?

Over time, the shape of your face naturally changes, often becoming wider at the bottom than the top, creating more of a triangle. By contrast, younger faces are usually shaped more like an inverted triangle, with the cheeks as the widest point and the lower face tapering in.

This transition is often age-related. As the years pass, both bone and deep fat diminish, reducing support for the overlying superficial fat and skin. Without this underlying structure, tissues begin to sag and shift downwards, contributing to a broader, heavier appearance in the lower face.

In other cases, the change may be linked to strong or bulky chewing muscles, known as the masseters, which sit on either side of the jaw. This can occur due to bruxism (teeth grinding), which often worsens during periods of stress, though some people are genetically predisposed to developing more prominent masseter muscles.

It’s important to remember that these changes are a normal part of facial variation and ageing, and they occur at different times and in different ways for everyone.

How Can The Dr. Jodie Clinic Help With Your Wide Jawline Concerns?

The Dr. Jodie clinic offers consultations addressing all types of jawline concerns.

Your Dr. Jodie clinician will likely recommend a combination approach to your jawline worries, including medical treatments, skin care, skin peels, LED therapy, mono threads, Laser Genesis, Meso Microneedling, and the Scarlet S Radio Frequency Microneedling, depending on the nature of your concerns.

Please note that any treatment that includes the use of schedule 4 medications cannot legally be advertised online, as directed by our governing body the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), so it is not a feature of our discussion here.

Regardless, your first requirement is facial assessment via a thorough consultation process.

What Is Involved In Your Consultation Regarding Your Wide Jawline At The Dr. Jodie Clinic In Melbourne?

Your Dr. Jodie clinician will begin by carefully assessing the underlying cause of your wide jawline. Is the change related to natural ageing, or are you genetically predisposed to developing bulky masseter muscles? In many cases, when masseter enlargement is the cause, bruxism (teeth grinding) may already have been diagnosed by your dentist.

Once the cause is identified, your treatment can be directed more appropriately. Your Dr. Jodie clinician will take the time to explain the treatment process in detail, outlining the steps involved, potential benefits and risks, and the costs you can expect. You are encouraged to be an active participant in your treatment planning, with plenty of time for discussion and questions.

Standardised clinical photography will also be arranged to document your starting point and track your progress throughout your treatment journey.

Tailored Approach To Jawline Concerns In Melbourne

Face shape plays an important role in overall balance and appearance. In recent years, a slimmer jawline and heart-shaped face have become popular, but it’s important to remember that every face is unique. At the Dr. Jodie clinic, your clinician will take the time to carefully assess your individual features and, if a slimmer jawline is your preference and you are a suitable candidate, discuss possible options with you.

Depending on the contributing factors, your treatment may focus on reducing the bulk of the jaw muscles or addressing changes in bone, soft tissue, and skin. Whatever the cause, your Dr. Jodie clinician will develop a personalised plan that reflects your individual needs and goals. There is never a ‘cookie cutter’ or ‘one size fits all’ approach. At the Dr. Jodie clinic, trends are not followed for the sake of fashion - every plan is designed to suit and support the uniqueness of your face.

Considered Cosmetic Care For Wide Jawline Concerns In Melbourne

Surgery is not the only way to influence the size or shape of your jawline. Non-surgical approaches can also play a role in supporting facial balance and refining proportions.

To achieve a result that looks balanced, it’s important that your clinician understands the subtleties of jawline treatment. This includes avoiding changes that could affect your smile or exaggerate the appearance of jowls. A clear appreciation of gender differences is also essential - a feminine jawline often appears softer and more heart-shaped, while a masculine jawline is usually broader and more square.

At the Dr. Jodie clinic, your clinician will take these factors into account when planning your treatment. The goal is always to provide a tailored approach that respects your unique features and preferences, with outcomes that integrate harmoniously with the rest of your face.
