Dr Ostad says he’ll see patients who want to target signs of ageing like laugh lines, marionette lines, or jowls. “These are actually symptoms of a loss of support in the outer cheeks.” As we age, we lose fatty tissue, muscle tone, and the support of the deep collagen layer in our cheeks that holds everything up. “But one common thing that makes a profound difference in helping the jawline is actually injecting fillers into the cheekbones,” he says. “By injecting fillers deep into near the bone, you can actually help to really lift up the jawline.”
