Achieving a Defined Jawline: Kybella and Injectable Options Explained

As the winter months start to wind down and hints of spring appear in Norfolk, many people are ready for a rejuvenation of both mindset and self-image. At Guy Trengove-Jones MD, PC, one of the most popular treatments during this transitional time is non-surgical jawline enhancement. Thanks to advancements in injectable procedures, achieving a naturally contoured, more youthful jawline has never been easier—or more subtle.

Why Jawline Contouring Continues to Grow in Popularity

A sculpted jawline is widely viewed as a hallmark of confidence and healthy vitality. With clearer weather and more in-person gatherings on the horizon, people throughout the Hampton Roads region are seeking ways to look and feel their best. Social media, virtual meetings, and an active local lifestyle have all contributed to increased interest in jawline definition as part of a refreshed appearance for the coming season.

Non-Surgical Options: Kybella and Dermal Fillers

At our Norfolk clinic, we specialize in two highly effective methods for improving jawline definition: Kybella and dermal fillers. Each approach offers unique benefits and can be personalized to suit your individual goals.

Kybella: Targeting Submental Fullness

Kybella is the first FDA-approved injectable designed specifically to address submental fullness—better known as a double chin. Here’s why Norfolk clients appreciate Kybella:

- Contains deoxycholic acid, which breaks down and permanently removes unwanted fat beneath the chin.

- Most patients see dramatic improvement after just 2–4 sessions, spaced one month apart.

- Once destroyed, these fat cells do not return, offering a long-term solution for jawline improvement.

Injectable Fillers: Instant Contouring and Customization

For those who want immediate changes or wish to enhance facial angles and symmetry, hyaluronic acid-based fillers offer precise results with very little downtime:

- Fillers are artfully injected along the jawline and chin to add volume and structure, restoring definition.

- Immediate results mean you can enjoy your new profile right away.

- Fillers can correct mild jowl laxity or chin recession, with effects lasting between 12 and 18 months.

- Touch-up appointments are simple and conveniently scheduled for ongoing refinement.

Frequently Asked Question: How Long Does Recovery Take After Kybella or Fillers?

A common concern for our clients is recovery time. With Kybella, you may experience some swelling or firmness for up to a week, which is part of the body’s natural fat elimination process. Most clients, however, return to work and daily life within a day or two. With dermal fillers, mild swelling, tenderness, or minor bruising can occur, but generally resolves within a few days—so you can resume your normal routine with minimal interruption.

Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Jawline Treatments?

Jawline enhancement may be right for you if you:

- Have noticed a double chin or softening jawline due to aging or weight changes

- Prefer a non-surgical approach with minimal downtime

- Want a subtle improvement that enhances your facial harmony

- Value results that fit your lifestyle and are easy to maintain
