In the field of aesthetic medicine, non-surgical facial contouring has become an increasingly popular option for patients seeking to enhance their appearance without the risks and downtime associated with surgery.
JUVEDERM®, a leading brand in dermal fillers, offers a versatile and effective solution for those looking to define their facial features, such as the jawline and cheekbones, with minimal invasiveness.
This article explores the benefits of using JUVEDERM® for non-surgical facial contouring and addresses common questions about its application and advantages.
How JUVEDERM® Enhances Facial Contours Without Surgery
1. Defining the Jawline
Application: A well-defined jawline symbolizes a youthful and attractive face. JUVEDERM® can be used to add volume and structure to the jawline, enhancing its definition and creating a more sculpted look. This is particularly beneficial for patients who experience sagging or a loss of definition due to aging.
How It Works: JUVEDERM® is injected along the jawline to enhance its contours by providing subtle volume and lift. The hyaluronic acid (HA) in JUVEDERM® attracts and retains moisture, which not only adds immediate volume but also helps to maintain the results over time. This non-surgical approach allows for precise contouring tailored to the patient’s unique facial structure.
Benefits:
- Immediate improvement in jawline definition.
- Non-invasive with minimal downtime.
- Results that can last up to a year or more, depending on the specific product used.
-
Enhancing Cheekbones
Application: High, well-defined cheekbones are often associated with beauty and youth. JUVEDERM® can be strategically injected into the cheeks to add volume and lift, creating a more contoured and youthful appearance.
How It Works: JUVEDERM® Voluma® XC, one of the products in the JUVEDERM® line, is specifically designed for deep injection in the cheek area to correct age-related volume loss. The filler is placed above the cheekbones to enhance their prominence, offering a natural lift to the mid-face area.
Benefits:
- Creates a youthful, lifted appearance.
- Enhances facial symmetry and balance.
- Long-lasting results, with many patients seeing effects for up to 2 years.

Smoothing Nasolabial Folds and Marionette Lines
Application: JUVEDERM® is also highly effective for addressing deeper lines and folds around the mouth, such as nasolabial folds (the lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth) and marionette lines (lines that extend downward from the corners of the mouth). By softening these lines, JUVEDERM® helps create a smoother, more youthful appearance.
How It Works: The HA in JUVEDERM® fillers integrates smoothly into the skin, filling deep lines and restoring lost volume. This not only improves the overall contour of the face but also rejuvenates the skin’s appearance.
Benefits:
- Immediate reduction of facial lines and wrinkles.
- Non-surgical with minimal recovery time.
- Results that can last from 9 to 18 months, depending on the area treated.

- Reversible Outcomes:
- For those concerned about long-term commitment, HA-based fillers like JUVEDERM® are reversible. If needed, the effects can be adjusted or dissolved, offering flexibility and peace of mind.
