Refine Your Jawline Without Surgery

A well-defined jawline creates balance, structure, and a more youthful appearance. While surgery is a powerful tool for reshaping the lower face, not every patient needs or wants an operation to achieve their goals. At his Beverly Hills practice, double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Andrew Frankel offers advanced non-surgical jawline enhancement treatments to help patients refine their profile with minimal downtime and natural-looking results.

By addressing both volume and muscle activity in the lower face, Dr. Frankel’s non-surgical approach can dramatically improve chin and jawline contours. His method includes the use of injectable fillers and a specialized Botox technique based on his published research in facial aesthetics. These treatments offer subtle, strategic changes that make the entire face appear more balanced and harmonious.

What Is Non-Surgical Jawline Enhancement?

Non-surgical jawline enhancement is a cosmetic treatment that improves the appearance of the chin, jawline, and lower face without incisions or implants. Instead of surgery, Dr. Frankel uses injectable treatments to achieve a more structured and defined look. These may include:

  • Dermal fillers to add volume and shape to the chin or jawline
  • Botox (onabotulinumtoxinA) to relax overactive muscles that distort the chin or reduce definition
  • Submental (under-chin) treatments to remove or smooth unwanted fat and tighten the neck area

This approach is tailored to each patient and is often used to correct a weak chin, soften jowls, reduce dimpling, and improve facial balance from all angles.

How the Chin and Jawline Influence Facial Appearance

The lower third of the face plays a vital role in overall facial harmony. A weak chin or undefined jawline can throw off the proportions of the face and make other features appear more prominent than they actually are. For example, a recessed chin may cause the nose to look larger, the neck to appear heavier, or the cheeks to lose their structure.

Conversely, a well-defined jawline enhances facial balance, brings attention to the eyes and cheekbones, and contributes to a more youthful and attractive appearance. This is why even subtle improvements to the chin or jawline can have a major impact on how the entire face is perceived.

Real Patient Testimonials

Dr. Frankel has the most natural and nuanced approach to injectables. I had powerful forehead muscles that were causing lines even at a young age. He has softened those lines so naturally over the years. I’m so thankful I went to him when I did! Truly the best in LA.

Why Choose Non-Surgical Over Surgical Options?

Surgical procedures such as chin implants, genioplasty, or neck lift surgery are effective but come with recovery time, anesthesia, and potential risks. Non-surgical enhancement is ideal for patients who want:

  • A more subtle improvement or “preview” of surgical results
  • Faster recovery and less downtime
  • Correction of soft tissue issues not addressed by bone-focused surgery
  • A solution that complements previous facial procedures
  • An opportunity to test changes before committing to surgery

Dr. Frankel’s approach is rooted in understanding the complexities of facial anatomy. His treatment plans are never one-size-fits-all; they are customized to your features, needs, and goals.

Botox for Chin Contouring:
A Specialized Technique

One of the most innovative tools Dr. Frankel uses in non-surgical jawline enhancement is Botox. While Botox is commonly known for treating forehead lines and crow’s feet, Dr. Frankel has developed a unique application for improving chin aesthetics based on his published clinical research.

In some people, a tight or overactive chin muscle causes the chin to appear small, tense, or puckered. This muscle, when hyperactive, pulls the chin upward and can distort its shape, making the lower face look less defined. Even with a chin implant in place, this muscle tension can create a blunted or “bunched” appearance.

Dr. Frankel found that by injecting Botox to relax the chin muscle, the chin settles into a lower, more attractive position. In his study, all patients showed visible improvement in jawline contour, with a stronger chin, better definition, and less dimpling. The treatment also helped soften the transition between the chin and neck.

This Botox-based method is especially helpful for patients who:

  • Have a mild or moderate chin recession
  • Want to avoid surgery
  • Notice puckering, dimpling, or tightness in the chin area
  • Have had a chin implant but still feel their chin looks small or undefined
  • Prefer a minimally invasive approach to enhance facial definition

Benefits of Dr. Frankel’s
Non-Surgical Chin and Jawline Treatment 

Dr. Frankel’s refined technique goes beyond temporary fixes. His approach is designed to create noticeable yet natural-looking improvements that align with each patient’s facial structure. Benefits include:

A more sculpted jawline and lower face
Softened dimples and tension in the chin
Improved projection and profile without surgery
Balanced proportions between the chin, nose, and neck
No downtime and minimal discomfort
Custom treatment plans based on individual anatomy

In addition to aesthetic improvement, patients often report feeling more confident and at ease after treatment. Reducing tension in the chin can also minimize subconscious habits such as clenching or puckering, which can contribute to long-term lines and muscle strain.

Is This Treatment Right for You? 

Non-surgical jawline enhancement is ideal for individuals who want to improve the appearance of a weak or underdefined chin and jawline without surgery. You may be a good candidate if you:

  • Feel your chin looks small, blunted, or unbalanced
  • See dimpling or tightness in the chin when speaking or at rest
  • Want more definition in the jawline
  • Prefer to avoid surgery but still want impactful results
  • Have had surgery in the past but want to enhance or refine the outcome
  • Desire a more youthful, lifted appearance in the lower face

Patients with good skin elasticity tend to see the most benefit from non-surgical treatments, but older patients may also achieve impressive improvements when the treatment is part of a comprehensive facial rejuvenation plan.

What to Expect During Treatment 

Your consultation with Dr. Frankel will begin with a detailed facial assessment. He will review your concerns, explain the anatomical reasons behind them, and discuss how non-surgical enhancement may help. Using his extensive expertise, he may recommend one or more of the following:

  • Strategic Botox injections to relax the chin muscle
  • Dermal fillers to enhance volume and projection
  • Neck-area treatment to reduce fullness under the chin

Most treatments take under 30 minutes and require little to no downtime. You may notice mild swelling or tenderness, but these effects typically resolve within a day or two.

Dr. Frankel uses precise mapping techniques to determine exactly where to place each injection for optimal results. Because facial anatomy varies from person to person, he adjusts the treatment plan to suit your bone structure, soft tissue, and aesthetic goals.

Results and Maintenance

Improvements from Botox typically become visible within 5 to 7 days and last three to four months. Dermal filler results are often immediate and can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years, depending on the type of filler used and the area treated.

Dr. Frankel recommends follow-up visits to assess results and maintain your desired appearance. For many patients, routine treatments every 3 to 6 months help keep the jawline looking sharp and youthful without needing surgery.

Over time, consistent treatment may also improve baseline muscle tone and skin texture, offering cumulative benefits beyond the initial aesthetic enhancement.

Non-Surgical Enhancement After Chin Implant Surgery

In his clinical work, Dr. Frankel has observed that some patients with chin implants still experience dissatisfaction due to the way their soft tissue sits over the implant. In these cases, Botox can be used to relax the overlying muscle, allowing the implant to achieve its intended contour.

In one of Dr. Frankel’s most notable examples, a patient who had undergone chin implant surgery with another provider still felt her chin appeared weak. After receiving a small amount of Botox in the chin area, her implant finally appeared more effective, and her overall facial profile improved dramatically.

This strategy also works for those who feel their chin looks unnaturally tense or uneven following surgery. Botox can provide a finishing touch, smoothing and refining the result. This approach can also serve as a valuable option for patients considering revision surgery but looking to avoid another operation.
