2023 is all about contouring the face while keeping a natural appearance. Dr. Jennifer Levine’s FitFace approach includes a variety of options to contour the part of the face that is too often forgotten – the jawline.
Defining the jawline can help enhance facial symmetry, provide a slimming effect, and reduce the appearance of jowls, or areas of loose skin that can form just below the jawbone.
Because each patient’s facial anatomy and goals are different, Dr. Levine provides a variety of treatments to contour the jawline, including the newest addition to her arsenal of rejuvenating tools – VOLUX by Juvederm.
Let’s explore!
Neck liposuction, a surgical method of fat removal that involves suctioning away targeted fat deposits from underneath the chin, is an effective way to permanently remove fat cells from the submental region. By slimming the area, it can provide a more contoured appearance to the jawline as seen below.
This beautiful patient had neck liposuction and rhinoplasty to achieve a contoured, refined look.
Kybella is an injectable treatment specifically designed to target and destroy fat cells in the submental region (below the chin). The active ingredient in Kybella is deoxycholic acid, which works by breaking down and absorbing the fat cells, resulting in a more defined jawline and slimmer appearance.
Kybella can be a non-surgical alternative to liposuction, and does not require incisions or downtime. This treatment is effective, and delivers long-lasting results with minimal side effects.
TIP: Did you know that Kybella can also be used to reduce fat around the ankles? Watch here.
DEFINE by InMode
InMode is a facial treatment that improves the face and neck to have more defined characteristics and a younger, brighter appearance. During treatment, energy is delivered to treat tissue as well as address signs of aging, irregularities and pigmentation.
What is Define?
Define is a hybrid configuration of both technician operated and hands-free technologies that addresses the complex topography of the face and enables customized combination procedures in all facial regions.
Define deploys multiple programmable modalities that work synergistically:
• Morpheus8: bipolar fractional microneedling
• Define Cheek: hands-free bipolar RF for cheeks
• Define Chin: hands-free bipolar RF for the submental zone
• Forma: operator-administered bipolar RF
Ultherapy is a beloved staple treatment in our office! It uses ultrasound energy to stimulate the natural production of collagen, giving the treated area a smoother, tighter, and more lifted appearance.
The ultrasound energy is precisely targeted at the deeper layers of the tissue to help redefine the jawline and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
Ultherapy produces a gradual and natural improvement that builds over time as it boosts collagen production in the area, producing a firmer and more youthful jawline. It is a safe, non-invasive, and effective way to improve your appearance without surgery or downtime.
Emface is an advanced skin-tightening treatment that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic stimulation (HIFES) and Radiofrequency (RF) to tone and tighten simultaneously.
As the cheeks gain volume and skin is tightened, there is a skin-lifting effect, giving the jawline a more defined appearance.

VOLUX can help to give your face a more defined look, while also reducing the appearance of wrinkles and sagging jowls. It has been designed to complement your facial features, providing enhanced facial symmetry and definition.
