V-shaped Face
The desirable V-shaped face has a gently tapered jawline that forms an inverted triangle. However certain factors can obscure this delicate facial contour and make the structure appear more rounded and square-shaped.
Facial anatomy is partly genetic. Some people naturally have a wider, more square jaw rather than a slim petite one. Excess volume in the buccal fat pads along the cheeks and jawline can widen the lower face.
As we age, skin elasticity is lost and tissues sag. The jaw and chin definition becomes obscured by jowls and skin loosening. Facial fat descends, contributing to a rounder visage.
Weight gain can also blur facial features as excess fat accumulates along the jaw, chin and neck. This conceals the natural V-line.
Treatments to achieve V-shaped Face
For those desiring a slimmer oval face with a sharper V-shaped definition, treatments like BTX, Ultherapy, HIFU and fillers can refine and contour the proportions without surgery.
Jaw BTX
Strategic injections of BTX relax the masseter muscles along the jaw to reduce square lower face. Result can be seen after 1 month and it lasts for 5-6 months.
Ultherapy
FDA approved device using focused ultrasound to stimulate deep tissue lifting and tightening the whole face along the jawline to better define the V-shape facial contour.
HIFU
High Intensity Focused Ultrasound targets various facial depths to firm skin and reshape the structure. It helps to define the jawline and lifts sagging tissues.
Chin Filler
Injectable fillers augment and sculpt the chin to make it appear more prominent. This balances facial proportions for an ideal inverted triangular look.
