How to Treat Jowls at QD Skin Clinic in Seoul, Korea


Jowls form when skin along the lower face begins to sag due to aging, collagen loss, volume changes, or weakened jawline support. QD Skin Clinic offers non-surgical lifting and contouring treatments to tighten the jawline, reduce heaviness, and restore a more defined lower face.

1. HIFU Lifting (Shurink / Ulfit / Ultherapy-Type)

High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound
Targets the SMAS layer to lift and tighten sagging tissue around the jawline.

Benefits:

  • Lifts early-to-moderate jowls
  • Sharpens lower-face contour
  • Stimulates natural collagen
  • Minimal downtime

Ideal for mild sagging, lower cheek heaviness, and early jowl lines.

2. Thread Lift for Jawline Definition

PDO / PCL Lifting Threads
Placed strategically to lift drooping lower-face skin upward and backward.

Results include:

  • More defined V-line
  • Reduced jowl prominence
  • Immediate lifting effect with continued tightening

Best for moderate jowls and skin laxity.

3. Jawline Contouring Fillers

Lower-Face Structural Fillers
Adds support to areas that have lost volume, creating a cleaner jawline edge.

Helps with:

  • Hollowing in front of the jowl
  • Weak jawline contour
  • Sagging caused by bone and fat loss

Provides natural lower-face refinement.

4. Fat-Dissolving Injections (If Jowls Are Fat-Related)

Localized Lipolysis Injections
Reduces small fat pockets that weigh down the jawline.

Benefits:

  • Slimmer jowl area
  • More lifted appearance
  • Better definition

Useful when jowls include mild fat accumulation.

5. RF Tightening for Skin Firmness

Radiofrequency (RF) Skin Tightening
Boosts collagen and improves overall firmness in the lower face.

Results include:

  • Smoother jawline
  • Less sagging
  • Enhanced elasticity

Often combined with HIFU or threads for stronger results.

6. LDM Therapy for Skin Quality & Elasticity

LDM Micro-Ultrasound
Supports collagen regeneration and improves lower-face texture.

Benefits:
