Wide Jawline

Why Do You Develop A Wide Jawline?

Over time your face shape changes, gradually becoming wider at the bottom than top, like a triangle. By contrast, a youthful face shape features an inverted triangle, where your cheeks are the widest point and your lower face narrows. So, what contributes to this transition?

In many cases, it is a change led by age. As you mature, bone and deep fat shrink, leading to loss of support and sagging of your overlying superficial fat and skin, to create a widened appearance.

Sometimes, it is due to the presence of strong bulky chewing muscles on both sides of your lower face, known as your masseter muscles. Most commonly, this is caused by bruxism or teeth grinding, However, some individuals are just genetically prone to the development of enlarged masseters.

The good news is it is possible to slim a widened jawline.

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, 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 first assess the cause of your wide jawline. Is it due to ageing or are you genetically programmed to develop bulky masseter muscles? In the latter case, it is not unusual for bruxism to have already been diagnosed by your friendly dentist.

Once the cause is established, your treatment can be directed more appropriately. Your Dr. Jodie clinician will meticulously explain the steps involved in your treatment process, your risks and benefits of treatment, and your financial obligations. You are encouraged to ask questions and be involved in your treatment planning. She will also organise clinical photography to capture your treatment journey and progress.

Refreshed Focus For Wide Jawline Concerns In Melbourne

Surgery is not the only way to impact the size of your jawline. Non-surgical alternatives can make a lasting difference to your face shape and facial balance.

In order to achieve a normal looking result from non-surgical treatments, it is imperative that your clinician understand the nuances of treatment to avoid impacting your smile or worsening the appearance of any jowls. She must also understand the differences between a feminine jawline, which is typically softer looking and more oval or heart-shaped, and a masculine jawline, which is more commonly square. You can feel confident that your Dr. Jodie clinician is well versed in the provision of jawline treatments for a refreshed outcome that keeps you looking like you.
