FacialBalancing

What Is Facial Balancing?

Facial balancing is all about strategically utilizing fillers to optimize facial features naturally. Instead of focusing on augmenting a specific area, think of it as a way to balance your face, emphasizing your favorite features, and supporting those that might need a subtle enhancement. Facial balancing aka facial harmonization serves as a nonsurgical refresher, aiming to uplift and brighten your overall appearance. Facial harmonization can give you a more symmetrical face and help you to look younger which can give people the boost in confidence in their appearance they need. Full facial balancing is used to address the entire face including areas like:

  • Forehead
  • Temples
  • Cheeks
  • Jawline
  • Chin

BENEFITS OF Facial Balancing


Improves overall facial symmetry and proportion


Enhances natural contours and structural definition


Creates a refreshed, more youthful appearance


Delivers subtle enhancements without an “overdone” look

OUR APPROACH TO Face Balancing Fillers

Facial balancing at Lushful Aesthetics typically involves the strategic use of hyaluronic acid fillers and/or Radiesse® to create harmonious results across multiple areas of the face. Rather than concentrating volume in one location, this treatment distributes smaller amounts of filler throughout key structural points.

While patients often associate sculpted results with large amounts of product, facial balancing works differently. Achieving definition in a single area such as the jawline alone may require 5–7 syringes. Facial balancing instead uses targeted refinement across the face to create subtle improvements that enhance symmetry and proportion without appearing augmented.

Each treatment plan is fully personalized based on facial anatomy, aesthetic goals, and desired level of enhancement.

Pre-Care

Avoid alcohol consumption for 3 days before receiving face-balancing fillers to help reduce bruising during the filler procedure


Consult with your medical provider if you can discontinue blood thinning medication such as Ibuprofen, Excedrin, Aspirin, Aleve, and Fish Oil


Do not wear makeup to your facial balancing appointment

Post-Care

No working out for 24 hours after receiving jawline fillers.


No makeup for 24 hours.


Avoid rubbing the treated areas for 4 hours.


Swelling is expected and typically subsides within 2 weeks. Minor swelling may linger up to 4 weeks. Please plan accordingly before major events.

Faqs

Our facial balancing procedure treats your whole face, instead of just targeting a single area. Patients at our medical spa for men can expect 3-5 syringes for an even and symmetrical outcome. If more extensive correction is necessary, we might spread the sessions out and explore other treatments, such as FreshTox™.

Almost every patient is a candidate for facial harmonization. This is an ideal procedure for someone who’s looking to make a modest improvement to their overall face balancing by treating multiple areas.

We use both FDA-approved hyaluronic acid-based fillers and Radiesse®, which is a calcium-based filler for asymmetry that stimulates collagen and elastin. In most cases, we will use a variety of different fillers to correct asymmetry, we choose the filler that is best suited for each specific area treated.

A masculine jawline is sharper and more chiseled, with an angle closer to 90 degrees. While women certainly can still have defined jawlines, they tend to be less chiseled and usually have a wider angle that does not make their faces look square. Because men require more definition and tend to have larger faces, more jaw filler is needed to provide optimal results.

Facial balancing considers the entire face and doesn’t just focus on individual features. This prevents the patient from looking like one feature alone is “too much”. The idea is to keep the results simple and of course, balanced.

Facial balancing is as safe as any other facial filler procedure. It’s important to see a well-trained medical professional who has several Before + Afters of their work for you to review.

As with most filler treatments, face balancing with fillers takes about 2 weeks to settle in. Residual swelling may linger for up to 4 weeks. We recommend that patients plan in advance 4-6 weeks before any major events.

This is a multifactorial question. Everyone is different regarding the level of “correction” they’re trying to maintain and achieve. If you pride yourself on looking aesthetically optimal at all times, you may want small yearly touch-ups combined with FreshTox™. On the other hand, if you’re just looking for a pick-me-up treatment and want to ride it out and not worry about maintenance there’s nothing wrong with that and you’ll slowly see your results fade over 1-3 years depending on the amount of filler you received.
