full face collaboration with Holly โœจ

This is a beautiful example of what facial balancing looks like with us at .

Instead of isolating one concern, we approached the face as a whole and treated key areas:
โ€ข temples for volume loss and support in the upper third
โ€ข lips for a soft enhancement and hydration
โ€ข chin and chin shadow to improve lower face contour, proportions and soften transition zones

When done correctly, the result is subtle, natural, and doesnโ€™t draw attention to any one area.

Loved collaborating on this treatment with Holly to create this stunning result ๐Ÿค

Aesthetic work should refine your features, not redefine them.

Thatโ€™s the point in aesthetics. The goal is not to create some dramatic, obvious shift. Good work shouldnโ€™t announce itself.

People shouldnโ€™t be able to pin point what you had done. They should just think you look good, maybe a little more rested, a little more refreshed, without knowing why.

Not every result needs to be dramatic to be impactful. Often, the most beautiful changes are the ones that are felt more than they are seen.

NON SURGICAL NOSE JOB : a favorite procedure of mine ๐Ÿค

She already had such a cute nose but wanted to refine it. We focused on straightening the bridge and lifting the tip. The result is sooo good!!!

A lot of people asking for jawline filler actually need this instead.

One of the most common things I hear in consults is:
โ€œI feel like my lower face looks heavyโ€ or โ€œI feel like I donโ€™t have a jawlineโ€ or โ€œ I have jowls.โ€

Most people assume the solution is adding filler to the back part of the jawline.

But a lot of the time, itโ€™s not actually about the posterior jawline and itโ€™s not that the lower face is truly heavy. Instead, itโ€™s often an imbalance in volume distribution.

When the front portion of the lower face lacks support or projection, particularly the chin, chin shadows, and pre-jowl area, it can make the surrounding areas appear heavier or less defined than they actually are.

For her treatment, we focused on restoring structure and balance to the lower third by addressing:
โ€ข chin projection
โ€ข chin shadows
โ€ข pre-jowl sulcus

When the front portion of her lower face was properly supported, a few things naturally happened:

โ€ข the jawline transition is smoother ( less shadows)
โ€ข the lower face and side profile is more balanced
โ€ข the jawline appears more defined
โ€ข the lower face appears less heavy ( more heart shaped)

These results were built gradually over two sessions (April โ†’ February), allowing everything to settle and blend naturally.

Swipe to see how natural these results look in the โ€œthe wildโ€ ๐Ÿ˜‰

Lower face balancing + non-surgical rhinoplasty

For this patient, our primary focus was creating better proportion and symmetry in the lower face while keeping everything conservative and age-appropriate.

Treatment included:

โ€ข Chin projection and slight elongation to improve profile and lower third balance
โ€ข Chin narrowing to refine lower face shape
โ€ข Correction of asymmetry
โ€ข Chin shadow support and anterior jawline blending to smooth transitions and create a cohesive lower face
โ€ข Non-surgical rhinoplasty to refine the nasal profile

She is a younger patient with naturally beautiful features, so our approach was intentionally conservative. The goal was to improve balance, support structure, and enhance what was already there while preserving youthfulness.

One of my favorite things about this before and after is how natural it looks. Nothing looks overdone. She just looks refreshed and more balanced.

Scroll to the end to see where we started โžก๏ธ

This outcome wasnโ€™t achieved in one appointment. Itโ€™s the result of taking a full-face approach across multiple sessions and being intentional about where to reduce volume and where to restore/add it.

Over time, we focused on:
โ€ข Masseters to reduce lower face bulk
โ€ข Lower face neuromodulator (chin, DAOs, platysma) to relax downward pull along the jawline and corners of mouth
โ€ข Midface volume restoration to address volume loss and improve overall facial proportions
โ€ข Chin refinement to add mild projection while narrowing and shaping the lower face, helping transition from a more square/rectangular shape to a softer, heart-shape
โ€ข Chin shadows and pre-jowl sulcus to soften shadows, smooth transitions, and add subtle anterior structure
โ€ข Lips for hydration, keeping volume subtle and natural
โ€ข Upper face neuromodulator maintenance, which sheโ€™s been consistent with every 3-4 months

The goal was to reduce lower face heaviness, improve proportions, and create a softer overall shape while keeping everything cohesive and natural.

Facial balancing is a term that gets used a lot, so hereโ€™s what it means in my practice.

Itโ€™s about looking at the face as a whole and understanding how treating one area impacts another. I donโ€™t like treating areas in isolation because thatโ€™s how imbalances can happen and unnatural looking results.

Facial balancing doesnโ€™t mean treating every part of the face. It does mean looking at every part of the face and treating what you need. That might be very different from patient to patient. The goal is natural, cohesive results that make sense for your anatomy.
