If you haven’t gained weight but your jawline looks less defined, it could be a sign of decreased skin elasticity.
When you look in the mirror, you may notice that your facial contours appear less defined than before, or your jawline looks blurred in photos. Many people assume weight gain is the cause, but in reality, decreased skin elasticity and sagging of deep soft tissues are often the true reasons.
Especially after your 30s and 40s, as collagen in the skin decreases and the elasticity of the tissues supporting the face declines, marionette lines and jawline sagging may gradually appear. This is why simple surface-level skincare alone is often not enough to achieve improvement.
Recently, non-surgical anti-aging treatments that target different skin layers without incision surgery have been gaining attention.
For example, lifting treatments using High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) can help lift sagging tissues by creating thermal coagulation points in the deep layers of the skin. On the other hand, Radiofrequency (RF) treatments can help improve skin elasticity and tightening by stimulating collagen regeneration in the dermal layer.
When combined with skin booster treatments, patients can expect both skin regeneration and moisture improvement, which can also help enhance overall skin texture and condition.
Treatment 01
Ultrasound Lifting HIFU SMAS Layer
For cases where skin sagging is prominent or the jawline appears undefined, ultrasound lifting treatments such as 10Triple may be helpful.
10Triple is a lifting treatment that delivers High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) deep into the SMAS layer of the skin to create thermal coagulation points, helping to lift sagging skin tissues.
It is particularly suitable for those concerned about a blurred facial contour, double chin, or marionette lines, and has been attracting interest from patients who desire natural lifting results without surgery.
Treatment 02
RF Firming RF Collagen Regeneration
For those concerned about fine wrinkles or declining skin texture due to thinning skin and loss of elasticity, radiofrequency (RF)-based treatments such as 10Therma may be helpful.
10Therma delivers radiofrequency energy to the dermal layer of the skin to promote collagen production, helping to improve elasticity from within the skin and create a tighter appearance.
It is known to be suitable for those who feel their skin has become loose and saggy overall, or who wish to improve pores, fine wrinkles, and elasticity all at once.
Treatment 03
Skin Booster PN Component Skin Regeneration
For those whose skin appears dry and rough, or who need skin regeneration and texture improvement after laser treatments, RegevanPN Skin Booster may be used as a complementary treatment.
RegevanPN Skin Booster is a treatment that directly injects PN component-based skin booster into the skin to improve the skin regeneration environment, helping to restore skin moisture and overall skin condition.
It is particularly utilized for patients with sensitive, easily dehydrated skin, or those who seek improvement not only in elasticity but also in overall skin health and radiance.
Recently, recognizing that skin aging does not originate from just one layer, combined anti-aging treatments that address lifting, firming, and skin regeneration together have been gaining attention. Deep layer sagging is addressed with ultrasound lifting, dermal elasticity with radiofrequency treatments, and skin surface condition with skin boosters.
Cheongdam Oracle Dermatology offers a combined anti-aging program that integrates 10Triple, 10Therma, and RegevanPN Skin Booster. It is characterized by a step-by-step approach from the deepest skin layers to the surface, simultaneously addressing lifting, firming, and skin regeneration.
In particular, as it is a non-surgical approach with relatively minimal recovery time, it has been attracting interest from office workers and medical tourism patients who prioritize a quick return to daily life.
※ The appropriate treatment method may vary depending on individual skin condition and degree of sagging, so it is important to establish a personalized treatment plan after thorough consultation.
