Chin Shadow Treatment with Subcision in Colorado
Why You Need It:
- This treatment smooths out wrinkles and softens the often harsh appearance of the lower face. It minimizes the appearance of jowling and improves lower face shadows. Subcision is a simple and safe procedure that can release tethers and stimulate collagen and elastin production. During this treatment, a blunt cannula is inserted under the skin and moved back and forth to release fibrotic strands and form new connective tissue. Sometimes Botox/Jeuveau and/or Filler are also necessary for optimal results, depending on anatomy.
- Performed by aesthetic injectors who will keep you looking natural and refreshed.
What to Expect:
- Injections may feel like a light pinching sensation or pressure. Most patients report a 2 out of 10 level of discomfort.
- We use injectable lidocaine to numb during this procedure so your mouth will feel numb for an hour or so after the appointment.
