Injectable Fillers for Lower Face Rejuvenation

Abstract

The lower face is an integral component of a beautiful face. Age-related changes in this region are so significant that they are often easily appreciated by patients. The aging process not only includes volume loss or downward fat repositioning, but also soft tissue laxity, skin changes, and even bony resorption. In the lower face, this results in sagging of the soft tissue leading to the formation of jowling, loss of an attractive well-defined jaw line, and a retruded chin. Both surgical and non-surgical options are available to reverse the aging signs; however, the popularity of non-surgical treatment has dramatically increased in last 2 decades.
