What treatments help sagging skin around the jawline?

Sagging skin around the jawline is one of the most common concerns we hear from clients, especially from their mid 30s onwards. It can soften the definition of your face and create what is often called jowling. The good news is that there are effective, non-invasive ways to improve firmness and support the skin naturally.

Below is a practical guide to the treatments that help, how they work, and how to get the best results.

1. Professional facial treatments that stimulate collagen

The jawline loses firmness mainly because collagen and elastin production slow down with age. Professional facial treatments work by stimulating the skin to rebuild itself.

How this helps: Facials that focus on skin renewal encourage collagen production, improve circulation and strengthen the skin structure around the jaw and neck.

How to get results: Book a course rather than a one-off treatment. Combine facial massage with active skincare ingredients. Follow a regular treatment plan every four to six weeks

These treatments are ideal if you want gradual, natural-looking improvement rather than dramatic changes.

2. Targeted facial massage and lifting techniques

Facial massage is one of the most underrated tools for jawline sagging. When done correctly, it can visibly lift and tone the lower face.

How this helps: Improves muscle tone beneath the skin Boosts blood flow and lymphatic drainage, and reduces fluid retention around the jaw and chin.

How to do this at home: Use an oil or serum to allow smooth movement. Work upwards from the neck towards the jaw. Apply light but firm pressure consistently.

Professional treatments combine advanced massage techniques with skincare that supports firming.

3. Skin tightening technologies

Advanced skin treatments using controlled heat or energy work deeper within the skin layers.

How this helps: Stimulates collagen at a deeper level, firms and tightens loose skin gradually Improves skin texture along the jaw and neck.

What to expect: Results build over time rather than instantly. Best suited for mild to moderate sagging. Often recommended as a course.

If you are unsure whether this is right for you, a professional consultation is essential.

4. Medical aesthetic treatments

Injectable treatments such as dermal fillers or skin boosters can provide more noticeable support to the jawline.

How this helps: Restores lost volume Creates definition and structure, and improves skin quality depending on the treatment.

Important note: Medical aesthetic treatments must always be discussed with a qualified practitioner. These are not suitable for everyone and require a full consultation.

5. Consistent home skincare that supports firmness

Professional treatments work best when supported by the right homecare.

How to improve results at home: Use products containing peptides, retinol, or vitamin C. Apply products to the neck and jawline, not just the face. Use SPF daily to protect collagen from further breakdown.

If you are unsure which products are suitable, we can recommend options during your appointment. 

6. Lifestyle habits that protect the jawline

Daily habits can either support or weaken the skin around the jaw.

What to focus on: Good posture, especially when using phones, staying hydrated Managing stress levels, and avoiding rapid weight loss where possible.

These changes support long-term skin health and enhance treatment results.
