Face slimming using Botox, fillers, threading and Ulthera
As the years pass by, we start noticing that our face shape is getting into an inverted V. The base of our face gets wider and less define especially around the neck and jawlines. This will give extra years to the face and might affect the confidence of the person.
Different technologies and treatment can address this issue
1-Facelift:
this is the ultimate and last option, but I will discuss it, in the beginning, to get it out of the way. This procedure results are usually significant, but irreversible in case things get south. It is a measure surgical with lots of risks and long recovery time. It is considered the most expensive treatment.
2-Cosmetic injectables:
We should consider other treatments that are less invasive and associated with good results such as
Botox injection
Botox is a muscle relax that is mainly used for the prevention of wrinkles in the upper face such as frown lines and smile lines. But understanding the physics of the muscle, we can target some muscles such as the masseter and platysma bands in the neck to achieve a good and safe facelift and face slimming.
Fillers injection
The filler is more helpful in facelift and defining the lines rather than face slimming. We usually use it hand in hand with Botox to achieve significant face shaping
3- PDO threads
PDO threads are relatively newer technics that use barb threads inserted through a cannula. The thread will be inserted in the subdermal plane and help to hold the tissue up against the gravity. This procedure is considered more invasive than other cosmetic injectables, and has longer downtime but has more significant results and can be used along fillers and botox
4- Energy devices
Other methods that help in facelift and face contouring is using energy device such as
Ulthera
It sends focus ultrasound waves to SMAS layer under the skin to rebuild collagen
Thermage
Work similar to Ulthera, but it uses fraction radio frequency as a source of energy
Microneedling
These machines work by both mechanical and energy induction for collagen production
Laser
Fractional ablative and non-ablative laser helps mainly with skin texture and pigmentation.

Yes, a slim face will give extra years to the face and affect the confidence of the person no doubt. I saw my friend last week and though we are the same age, her face looks all firm and pointy. I think this is the next big thing.
Hmmm. A lot of treatments I haven’t even thought of. Face-lifting would definitely go a long way for me as I’ve struggled enough with a chubby face on a small neck.
This post about face slimming using Botox, fillers, threading, and ulthera has sincerely just made my day. I was just talking to a friend about my puffed face and she was suggesting surgery. I was scared but still came online to search. This post helped and I guess not everything requires surgery.
Cosmetic injectables? I was speaking to an expert about this and he said it’s a very good thing and the results are good. But I was quite skeptical about it when he spoke. But now I think there are no fears anymore.
I had to read this well for it to properly sink in. I haven’t believed that I just found a solution to my face and confidence. I wish Albany center is close to me as I would have preferred to come around for my treatment as I can see the team are all professionals.
I just saw this on a friend’s laptop and had to let him allow me read it. It’s very interesting and seeing this is a problem for a lot of people, the techniques mentioned would really help people make good decisions.
Gosh, you guys are really doing a great job enlightening the public about stuff like this. It has really gone a long way to help a lot of people and i am one of them. What I do now is to visit the site whenever I have a skin problem and when I see what’s recommended, I’m well prepared to meet an expert and do the needful.
Thanks for this post. I’ve always thought that surgery was like the only effective option for getting my face slimmed but this has cleared all doubts whatever and I’m ready to try any of these.
Just one trip to Albany Cosmetic and Laser Center INC Edmonton and I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. My face is a lot slimmer now and it fits well on my neck not looking like it’s a burden for it.
I read this post from top to bottom and I’m impressed with what I found. This energy devices looks to me like the option would favor me better. Thanks for this.
