The jawline is the chin-jaw line that emphasises the face and gives it profile. Many of our patients desire a prominent contour, as this is often associated with attractiveness and elegance. Whether the chin line is pronounced depends primarily on genetic predisposition.
In some people it is prominent and angular, in others it is rather soft, irregular or slightly blurred. Age also plays a role. For example, the connective tissue weakens over the years, the so-called sacking effect occurs.
