What is a Lower Face Filler?

Lower face fillers are composed of Hyaluronic acid gel and are injected into the lower face using an ultra-fine needle. They effectively target deep lines around the mouth, contour the jawline, and correct a weak chin. These fillers have a robust nature, providing volume to create chin protrusion and shape the jawline. They also firm up deep folds around the mouth for a smoother appearance.

What Areas Can You Treat with Lower Face Filler?

Lower face fillers address marionette lines (smile lines) around the mouth, a dimpled or recessed chin, and an undefined jawline, offering comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

What Can You Expect at a Lower Face Filler Appointment?

Your filler appointment at Aesthetic Envy begins with a detailed consultation to understand your goals and medical history. Before proceeding, we take before and after pictures for progress tracking. The procedure takes 30-60 minutes, and you can resume normal activities immediately with minimal aftercare instructions.

Does a Lower Face Filler Treatment Hurt?

Most patients find lower face filler treatments tolerable. We provide topical numbing, icing, and fillers infused with lidocaine for pain reduction. Additionally, we use a blunt-tip cannula for safer, less traumatic injections, minimizing bruising, swelling, and downtime.

Who Makes a Good Candidate for Lower Face Filler?

Lower face filler is ideal for individuals seeking a more prominent chin or sculpted jawline without surgery. It’s also suitable for those considering permanent implant options. Additionally, anyone aiming to combat aging signs benefits from lower face filler. We assess each patient’s medical history and goals thoroughly during consultations to ensure suitability.

Fillers are not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women or individuals with active infections or wounds in the treatment area.

How Long Does Lower Face Filler Last?

Lower face filler typically lasts between 6-24 months, varying based on the product used and individual response. At Aesthetic Envy, we offer a range of filler options to best suit your needs and preferences. During your consultation, we’ll discuss your goals to select the most suitable product together.

Consistent filler use yields optimal long-term results, emphasizing the importance of establishing a trusted partnership with your injector for ongoing care and maintenance.

Will Lower Face Filler Make Me Look Overdone?

Our aim is always to enhance natural beauty, avoiding an overfilled appearance. Our skilled Registered Nurses prioritize subtle enhancements to ensure results are undetectable. We emphasize expertise and experience in injection techniques to achieve natural-looking outcomes.

Is Lower Face Filler Safe?

Yes, lower face filler is safe as hyaluronic acid, its main component naturally occurs in the body. However, safety relies on proper administration by licensed professionals. At Aesthetic Envy, we prioritize your safety by using high-quality products and ensuring correct injection techniques. Your well-being is our utmost priority.

Lower Face Filler Side Effects and Aftercare

The primary side effects of lower face filler treatment include bruising, redness, swelling, and mild discomfort during the healing phase. To minimize these effects, we employ advanced techniques such as using a blunt-tip cannula instead of a needle. This approach reduces trauma to the tissue, resulting in less bruising, swelling, and downtime.

Pre-Treatment Preparation

Before your treatment, avoid consuming blood-thinning substances like ibuprofen, aspirin, fish oil, and alcohol. You can also consider taking arnica supplements to minimize bruising and swelling. If you’re uncertain about any medications or supplements, feel free to contact our office for guidance.

Post-Treatment Care Tips

Following your treatment, refrain from applying makeup or skincare products on the treated area for the rest of the day. Additionally, avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours afterward. To reduce swelling, consider sleeping with your head slightly elevated in the evening following your treatment.

By following these simple pre- and post-treatment instructions, you can minimize downtime and discomfort, allowing you to enjoy your results sooner. If you have any questions or concerns, our team is here to support you every step of the way.
