Designer Jawline (Non-surgical Jaw Enhancement) in Fulshear, TX
A sculpted, proportional jawline is a hallmark of the ideal facial aesthetic. Several factors, including sagging skin from aging or rapid weight loss, may cause an undefined jawline. Additionally, a blunted jawline can result from excess fat in the submental (under the chin) and neck areas, a retruded or “weak” chin, or simply inadequate bone volume around the mandible.
Dr. Jack Hua, founder of Designer Plastic Surgery, is an extensively trained plastic surgeon specializing in advanced facial rejuvenation techniques. He tailors each Designer Jawline treatment to your unique anatomy and according to your aesthetic goals for stunning, natural-looking results.
What Is the Designer Jawline?
The most attractive faces of today are characterized by proportion, symmetry, sculpted angles, and refined contours. That said, many of us have genetic features that don’t align with this standard. These may include an underdeveloped mandible, a double chin, a prominent nose, and other inherited traits.
Dr. Hua’s Designer Jawline treatment is tailored to your anatomy to create a structured, defined jawline with smooth contours for facial balance and harmony.
What Are the Benefits of the Designer Jawline Treatment?
Benefits vary depending on the treatment plan but include:
- A tight, defined jawline
- A more proportional facial profile
- A noninvasive or minimally invasive approach—no surgery involved
- Minimal to no downtime
- Instant results

What Are My Designer Jawline Options?
Dr. Hua employs a variety of approaches to sculpting a tight, defined jawline without surgery. At your consultation, you and Dr. Hua will determine which method is best suited to your needs and goals.
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a substance that naturally occurs in the human body. As a molecule, it can attract up to 1,000 times its own weight in water, making it an excellent humectant and hydrator. As a jawline filler, HA gel adds volume to the lower face to create a defined, structured jawline and a balanced profile.
We offer JUVÉDERM® VOLUX® XC, an HA injectable filler that lasts up to one year and is specifically formulated to improve jawline definition.
Biomodulators
Also called biostimulators, biomodulators are injectable substances that work by stimulating the skin’s collagen production. Starting around age 20, we lose approximately 1% of our body’s collagen per year. Bio-stimulatory injections improve the structure of the skin and slow the aging process.
For the Designer Jawline treatment, we offer Sculptra® and RADIESSE® injections.
- Sculptra® contains poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), a substance known to stimulate collagen and improve the skin’s elasticity. Sculptra® creates smooth contours and continuously works to recover lost collagen for natural, long-lasting results that improve over time.
- RADIESSE® contains calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA), which is a substance found in bones. This injectable filler adds volume and smooths the skin. It marries the immediate results offered by HA fillers with the collagen-stimulating properties of PLLA, offering immediate volume that can last two years or more.
Neck and Jaw Enhancement
For some, a more defined neck is the key to a sculpted jawline. This can be achieved by dissolving fat in the submental region or removing neck fat with awake liposuction, followed by tightening the skin using an energy device.
- Double Chin Injections: FDA-approved KYBELLA® and phosphatidylcholine and deoxycholate (PCDC) injections target submental fullness, commonly referred to as a “double chin.” Both treatments work by breaking down fat cells, gradually improving the contour of the treated area.
- Awake Liposuction: This procedure is performed under local anesthesia. A small incision is made under the chin, and stubborn fat is gently suctioned out. This mitigates the need to recover from general anesthesia, and results are immediate and continue to improve over time as swelling subsides.
- Skin Tightening with Energy Devices: Using a CO2 laser or radiofrequency (RF) microneedling, we can heat the deeper layers of the skin. This stimulates collagen and causes the skin to contract, resulting in tighter skin and a lifted and sculpted jawline. This is often referred to as a non-surgical facelift.
Common Combination Treatments
Non-surgical jawline enhancement can be achieved on its own or combined with other facial rejuvenation treatments. Popular combination therapies include:
- RF Microneedling: If you desire tighter skin with a smoother texture, radiofrequency (RF) microneedling is an excellent option for its collagen-stimulating properties and minimal downtime.
- CO2 Laser: CO2 laser resurfacing is a powerful way to address fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and sun spots for even-toned skin to complement your new contours.

What Can I Expect From Designer Jawline Recovery?
Many of Dr. Hua’s jawline contouring methods involve little to no downtime. In many cases, patients can return to their daily activities directly after treatment. Fillers are generally quick appointments with zero downtime. Awake liposuction may require three to seven days off work, and swelling often takes a few months to resolve. Energy devices can similarly require a few days of downtime.
At your consultation, Dr. Hua will discuss what to expect after your treatment. At your appointment, he will provide you with any necessary aftercare instructions.
When Will I See My Designer Jawline Results?
Your Designer Jawline treatment will be tailored to your anatomy and aesthetic goals. Dr. Hua will evaluate your face shape and develop a treatment plan to create a chiseled jawline that enhances your facial structure.
Result timelines will vary depending on your treatment plan.
- Hyaluronic fillers provide instant results. Patients usually come in for a touch-up every year or so.
- Sculptra® and RADIESSE® build collagen over time. The results may take a few months to become apparent, but you will notice continued improvement.
- KYBELLA®, PCDC, awake liposuction, and energy device treatments take one to two months for results to become apparent.
How Much Does the Designer Jawline Cost?
Due to the highly customizable nature of Designer Jawline treatment, the cost of your nonsurgical jaw enhancement will vary according to your treatment plan. Dr. Hua will provide you with precise pricing details at your consultation.
