Nonsurgical Treatments to Lift and Tighten a Sagging Jawline
Tiffany Pickup, MD - October 2025
A sculpted, youthful jawline is one of the most desired features for both men and women. Yet over time, skin laxity, collagen loss, and changes in facial volume can lead to jowls and sagging along the lower face. This effect is heightened and more rapid with the use of weight loss medications (GLP-1s). The good news is that you don’t need surgery to restore definition. Today’s nonsurgical jawline tightening treatments in Cincinnati can successfully lift, contour, and rejuvenate your appearance—with little to no downtime.
At Dermatology Specialists of Greater Cincinnati, our board-certified dermatologists use the most advanced, evidence-based treatments to help you look refreshed, natural, and confident.
Ultrasound Skin Tightening (Sofwave®)
Best for: Mild to moderate laxity, with gradual and natural results.
Ultrasound technology (Sofwave) penetrates deep into the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production. Over the next few months, patients see firmer skin, lifted jowls, and improved jawline definition. With no needles or downtime, this treatment is ideal for busy Cincinnati professionals who want real results without surgery.
Injectable Fillers for Jawline Definition
Best for: Volume loss, a weak chin or jawline, or early signs of sagging.
Dermal fillers can restore balance and sharpen the jawline. Men often choose fillers for a stronger, more chiseled look, while women may want soft, youthful contouring. Results are immediate and last 12–24 months.
Neuromodulators: The Nefertiti Lift
Best for: Relieving a downward pull from overactive neck muscles.
Strategic Botox® or Dysport® injections along the jawline and neck relax muscles that drag the skin downward. This “Nefertiti lift” provides a subtle but effective nonsurgical lift that smooths the neckline and refines jawline definition.
Fat Reduction for Double Chin & Jowls
Best for: Submental fullness, also known as a “double chin.”
If excess fat softens your jawline, nonsurgical fat reduction can help. Options like Kybella® (injections that dissolve fat cells) permanently reduce fat under the chin and the jowls for a slimmer, more contoured profile.
