Injectable Fillers for Lower Face Rejuvenation

Atlas Oral Maxillofac Surg Clin North Am. 2024 Mar;32(1):15-22. doi: 10.1016/j.cxom.2023.10.002. Epub 2023 Nov 22.ABSTRACTThe lower face is an integral component of a beautiful face. Age-related changes in this region are so significant that they are often easily appreciated by patients. The aging process not only includes volume loss or downward fat repositioning, but also soft tissue laxity, skin changes, and even bony resorption. In the lower face, this results in sagging of the soft tissue leading to the formation of jowling, loss of an attractive well-defined jaw line, and a retruded chin. Both surgical and non-surgical options are available to reverse the aging signs; however, the popularity of non-surgical treatment has dramatically increased in last 2 decades.PMID:38307631 | DOI:10.1016/j.cxom.2023.10.002
