How to Treat Sagging Jowls in Phoenix?

Not many other parts of the body show signs of aging, such as the lower face. Natural aging causes the sleek contour of the skin and jawline to sag, resulting in loose skin around the mouth and cheeks.

The excess droop skin that collects around the lower part of the face is referred to as the jowls. You’re here because you’re wondering how to treat sagging jowls, and the answer is that there are several options, ranging from nonsurgical procedures like laser skin tightening or dermal fillers to surgical intervention for more advanced cases. Let’s explore these options.

Fillers 

Dermal fillers can be injected into the skin's soft tissue to restore lost volume or fill in wrinkled lines. They offer dramatic results without the pain and recovery of a surgical procedure.

To address  jowl formation, fillers can be injected to lift the jawline and  cheek skin. For patients looking for a simple treatment for sagging jowls, fillers can provide natural and noticeable improvements without downtime.

Thermage

Thermage is a noninvasive laser procedure designed to resurface the skin. Radiofrequency energy is applied to the skin's deep layers to firm up saggy collagen and elastin fibers and form new collagen.

Ultherapy  

Ultherapy is a laser-based process that tightens and firms the skin by stimulating collagen production. Instead of radiofrequency energy, it uses ultrasound technology to lift and tighten the skin.

Patients have reported receiving good clinical results with a single treatment. Nevertheless, it is recommended that patients with a fair amount of laxity undergo more than one session.

Fraxel CO2 Lasers

Fraxel repair is a CO2 laser system that can reduce the amount of skin surface. Fraxel lasers target tissue by vaporizing tiny columns of the skin.

The heat transferred during the vaporization works to shrink the remaining skin while stimulating the production of collagen.

While this procedure is considered more invasive than the previously mentioned methods, it has been reported to offer quick and dramatic results within a single treatment.

Neck Lift

A neck lift surgery is the most invasive, but one of the most effective procedures for jowls.

If you have severe jowls or significant laxity, then the neck lift procedure is ideal for you. It consists of making 1-inch incisions under the chin or behind the ears to remove the excess skin and tighten loose muscles.

Surgery remains an option for advanced cases, but many patients now prefer to first explore the best non-surgical treatment for sagging neck and jowls, such as laser or ultrasound-based therapies.

Chin AirSculpt+

If you want to remove stubborn fat and tighten skin, Chin AirSculpt® is a minimally invasive process that doesn't use a scalpel, needle, or general anesthesia to provide dramatic jowl reduction.

It offers precise and dramatic results without the invasiveness of traditional procedures like liposuction or neck lifts. In addition, the procedure's downtime is relatively short, only requiring that you rest for 48 hours post-op.

Although AirSculpt alone always leaves skin tighter than before, the AirSculpt+ add-on option can significantly tighten loose skin without the need for new incisions. Everything with AirSculpt is done through minute, two-millimeter-wide entry points that heal to resemble mere freckles, a vast difference from the large neck lift incisions.
