Not really unless the jowling is minimal and the corners of the mouth are deep and then filled. it may take a combination of laser resurfacing and the application of Sculptra in the cheek are if there is a loss of fat in the mid cheek areas. This is the combination i use on most of my patients with this problem.

Many clients are concerned about jowls. Generally, the sagging skin
creating jowls is due to lack of collagen causing laxity. A light-based
procedure heating the deep dermal tissues to reactivate collagen and elastin
growth may be better suited to meet your expectations than filler. Refirm by
Syneron is a treatment to consider.

Yes, Restylane or Juvederm can help diminish the appearance of jowls. It costs $300-$600 for the treatment. It depends on how noticeable they appear.

Yes it can. Restylane only lasts 6 months so I prefer longer lasting fillers. Typically only one syringe is needed and the cost is $575 total.

Restylane is not designed to lift, which is what is needed in an area like the jowels. It is designed and used to fill folds and wrinkles. We would suggest looking for a surgical solution as we don not advocate for thread lifts or skin tightening.

Yes various fillers are used to treat the area called the Marionette region or "pre jowl sulcus"- the cost depends on the amount of filler needed to correct the volume loss. You would need a consult to determine this. Cost per syringe varies quite a bit from place to place.
