Not all of us are born with chiselled cheekbones—and if you desire a more pronounced or contoured cheek area, dermal fillers are used to achieve this. By adding volume to the area, we can rebalance the face and create a light-reflective, more angular, or contoured look. In the case of aging, you may have noticed sagging or deflation through your mid-face, resulting in less pronounced cheekbones.

Dermal fillers will replace the fat lost to the aging process to give you a healthier, fuller appearance. Filler in the cheek area also helps to give a “lift” to the lower face, softening nasal labial folds (smile lines) and jowls.

If you have a weak or undefined jawline, dermal fillers are used to add volume or chin projection for a more flattering view from both a front and side angle. The added volume won’t make you look heavy through the jaw or give you a double chin, but rather creates a more chiselled, angular, or defined jawline by building up the area for better overall facial features & proportions. This is a popular treatment for women who want a more sculpted or angular jawline and for men who want a stronger profile.

Some patients have very strong masseter facial muscles (used for chewing), which gives them an overly wide jawline that can look masculine. By injecting botulinum toxin and other neuromodulators (we carry various well-known brands) into the muscle, our EverYoung doctors in North Vancouver, Burnaby, and Port Coquitlam can slim the jawline by relaxing the underlying muscle to create a more feminine, oval, light-reflective, mid-’20s, or heart-shaped face. Dermal filler may also be added to the chin area when projection is needed.
