MyEllevate® JawContouring
MyEllevate® jaw contouring is an innovative approach to achieving a more defined jawline and youthful neck profile without extensive surgery. Forefront physicians are proud to offer MyEllevate® jaw contouring for patients seeking a minimally invasive treatment that offers impressive and lasting results.
What is MyEllevate® jaw contouring?
As they age, patients tend to notice that their once-defined jawline becomes rounder and lower over time. This is because fat and other tissues migrate downward with age, giving the face a “bottom-heavy” look and hiding the clean line that separates the face from the neck.
MyEllevate® jaw contouring is a state-of-the-art cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the definition of the jawline and improve the appearance of the neck. This technique utilizes a specialized, suture-based system that supports and elevates the underlying tissues without the need for traditional surgical incisions. Ideal for those looking to refine their neck and jaw contours, MyEllevate® offers a significant aesthetic transformation with minimal downtime.
How does it work?
The procedure typically takes only about an hour and only requires local anesthesia for comfort.
Using a light-guided ICLED suture system, we place a supportive suture material around the muscles under the chin and along the jawline. The sutures essentially hold up tissues from the inside, preventing them from sagging as they typically would with age.This method secures a durable elevation of the tissue, sculpting a more defined jawline and neck contour.
Benefits of MyEllevate® jaw contouring
Minimally invasive
No large incisions are required, which means less scarring and a lower risk of complications compared to traditional surgical methods. The entire process can be completed in less than an hour.
Quick recovery
Most patients experience minimal downtime and can return to their daily activities shortly after the procedure. Common side effects include temporary bruising, swelling, and redness.
Fast results
Enhancement in the jawline and neck contour are noticeable shortly after the procedure, with desired results becoming more prominent as swelling decreases.
Long-lasting rejuvenation
Many patients find that their more youthful contours last three to five years—or longer! Because tissues will continue to be impacted by time and gravity, your Forefront physician will explain how to maintain results for as long as possible.
Who are ideal candidates?
MyEllevate® is suitable for men and women who are looking for a non-surgical solution to enhance their jawline and reduce the appearance of a sagging neck. Ideal candidates should be in good health and have realistic expectations about the outcomes of the procedure. During a consultation with Forefront physicians, we will discuss your medical history and aesthetic goals to determine if MyEllevate® is the right option for you.
What other facial contouring options are available?
Besides MyEllevate, patients seeking a sleeker, more youthful jawline and neck area have several other options to consider.
Surgical options
- A facelift can tighten laxity that gives the neck an aged look, as well as address jowls that create a “soft” and poorly defined jawline.
- Cheek augmentation or fat grafting for the cheeks can also provide more structure and support in the mid- face, which can help to keep tissues from sagging and causing jowls to develop.
- Chin augmentation can help to shape a more proportionate jawline.
- Liposuction that focuses on the neck and jawline surgically removes fat to create a sleeker look.
Non-surgical options
While surgical procedures tend to provide the most dramatic and long-lasting results, injectables and energy-based skin tightening options can help to further refine a look or make adjustments to a face that has started to show signs of aging.
- Dermal fillers like Voluma® can sculpt the face with results that last up to two years.
- Injectable Kybella® can specifically target a double chin to “dissolve” fat cells there.
- CoolSculpting® Elite freezes pockets of fat in the neck and lower face.
Because every person is unique, our physicians strive to get to know our patients to determine which procedures will work best for their personal appearance and goals.
