Nonsurgical jawline rejuvenation using injectable fillers.

Background: A well‐defined jawline is a critical component in the perception of facial attractiveness in both men and women. Dermal fillers offer a nonsurgical, temporary method of correcting mild‐to‐moderate mandibular bone resorption. Aims: The authors discuss pertinent aspects of anatomy, pathophysiology of aging, patient evaluation, gender considerations, injection technique, and complications in jawline augmentation using injectable fillers. Methods: A brief review of the literature surrounding jawline augmentation using injectable fillers in both men and women, as well as the authors' experience in this area, is provided. Results: Nonsurgical jawline augmentation using injectable fillers can be performed effectively and safely with adequate background knowledge of the regional anatomy and appropriate patient selection. The authors discuss both injection techniques in the published literature and their own approach. Potential complications are also reviewed. Conclusion: Jawline rejuvenation is a key component to global facial aesthetic rejuvenation. Therefore, it is important for physicians to understand how to safely and effectively perform nonsurgical jawline rejuvenation using injectable fillers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
