The passage of time, sun exposure, genetic factors and other lifestyle habits can lead to a loss of definition in the facial contours, resulting in a tired and aged appearance. Fortunately, aesthetic medicine offers a wide range of effective treatments to redefine facial contours and restore facial freshness.
In this article, we will guide you through the main medical aesthetic treatments that will help you redefine your facial contours and restore youthfulness to your face.
Best treatments to reshape facial contours
- Facial Fillers: Volume and Definition
Facial fillers are one of the most popular techniques for redefining the facial contours. These products, based on hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxyapatite, are injected into strategic areas of the face to restore lost volume, reduce wrinkles and mark facial contours.
The most common areas for the application of facial fillers as part of the redefinition of the facial contour are:
- Cheekbones: Fillers in the cheekbones help to lift and define the cheeks, giving a more youthful and rested appearance to the face.
- Nasolabial fold: The nasolabial fold, which extends from the nose to the chin, is smoothed with fillers, reducing the appearance of ageing.
- Jawline: Fillers in the jawline help to define the jaw and create a more pronounced and defined facial contour.
2. Botulinum toxin: Muscle relaxation and wrinkle prevention
Botulinum toxin works by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and expression lines. In the context of facial contour redefinition, botulinum toxin is used to:
- Raise the eyebrows: This opens up the eyes and gives a more alert and youthful look to the face.
- Diminish frown lines on the forehead: These vertical lines between the brows can make the face look tired and aged.
- Smoothing crow’s feet: These wrinkles around the eyes can mark the facial contours and make the eyes look tired.
3. Thread Tightening: Tightening of the face without surgery
Thread lifts are a non-invasive option to tighten facial skin and redefine the facial contours. These threads are inserted under the skin, creating a tightening effect that lifts and redefines facial tissues. Tightening threads can be used in different areas of the face, such as:
- Cheeks: To lift the cheeks and combat sagging.
- Neck: To tighten the neck skin and reduce jowls.
- Lower third of the face: To redefine the jawline and facial contours in general.
4. Radiofrequency to stimulate collagen production
Radiofrequency is a treatment that uses radio waves to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. This helps to tighten the skin, improve texture and redefine the facial contours. Radiofrequency can be applied to different areas of the face, such as:
- Cheekbones: To lift the cheekbones and define the cheeks.
- Neck: To tighten the neck skin and reduce jowls.
- Facial oval: To redefine facial contours in general and combat sagging.
5. Laser: Precision and rejuvenation
Laser treatments offer a precise and effective solution to redefine the facial contours and combat the signs of ageing. There are different types of lasers that can be used for:
- Tighten skin: The ablative laser removes the superficial layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin.
- Eliminate wrinkles: Fractional laser creates microperforations in the skin, stimulating cell renewal and reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
- Improve skin texture: Laser resurfacing removes dead skin cells and imperfections, improving skin texture and luminosity.
