Are there effective alternatives to Botox for getting a V shape face?

Doctor's Answer

Getting a V shaped face is a common desire for many Singaporeans. There are various treatments that can help to give you a more defined and slimmer jawline apart from Botox.

Treatments should be customised according to your unique facial anatomy.

Non-surgical treatments to get a V-shaped face in Singapore:

1. "Small" receded chin--> Chin and Jaw Fillers

- Fillers help to shape your chin and jaw line by providing volume to your chin and jaw.

- Commonly used fillers are hyaluronic acid fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Stylage) and calcium-based fillers (Radiesse)

- These fillers last between 9 months to 18months, depending on the type of fillers used.

2. Sagging skin at lower face --> Skin tightening and lifting treatments

- Tighten skin with High intensity focused ultrasound (Ultraformer/ Ulthera) / Radiofrequency (thermage, INFINI)

3. Enlarged masseters --> Jaw Botox

- Botox helps to weaken and shrink masseter muscles which cause squarish jaws.

4. Double chin --> Kybella/ Belkyra (deoxycholic acid injections)

- this fat melting injections will be launched in a few months' time.

As you can see, there are many alternatives to Botox for V shaped face. The most important step is to see an experienced aesthetic doctor for a customised treatment plan.

Hope that this helps!
