Facial Balancing & Wrinkle Relaxation

Personalized treatments engineered to restore regional structural volume, correct age-related skeletal degradation, and deliver precise muscular relaxation for complete facial, perioral, and chin harmonization.

Skeletal & Fat Pad Volume Deficits (Cheeks, Temples & Midface)

• The Problem: Flattening contours, loss of malar projection, sunken temporal hollows, and deepening nasolabial folds driven by deep midface fat pad depletion and structural bone resorption/osteoporosis.

• The Protocol: Deep anatomical placement of high G-prime structural fillers or autologous EZ Gel/PRF matrices along the zygomatic arch, deep temporal fossa, and SOOF complex to rebuild the skeletal midface foundation, lift descending tissue vectors, and eliminate hollows.

• Clinical Prep: Start 4–6 weeks before with Thorne Collagen Plus (1 scoop daily) + Thorne Vitamin C 1,000 mg (1 capsule daily). Discontinue all anti-coagulating supplements 7 days prior. Optimize systemic hormone status to slow underlying bone mineral and tissue volume loss.

Lower Jaw Shape, Chin Architecture & Sagging Jowls

• The Problem: Loss of mandibular definition, structural chin hollowing, receding mental projection, a deep mental crease, and sagging jowls along the jawline border due to a receding bony foundation, osteoporosis, and shifting tissue volumes.

• The Protocol: Deep structural fanning and targeted bone-level bolus placement along the gonial angle, mandibular ramus, and chin apex to rebuild mental projection, fill pre-jowl hollows, re-anchor the lower face, and smooth out deep architectural creases.

Overactive Chin Dimpling & Downturned Mouth Corners

• The Problem: Peau d'orange (orange peel) skin texture on the chin, hyperactive mentalis dimpling, and a chronic resting frown caused by a hyperfunctional muscular downward pull.

• The Protocol: Mentalis muscle micro-droplets to fully smooth out the superficial chin texture, paired with localized relaxation of the Depressor Anguli Oris (DAO) muscle to release the corners of the mouth.

Forehead Lines, Frown Lines & 11s

• The Problem: Deep horizontal forehead creases, vertical glabellar "11" lines, and permanent brow furrows caused by hyperactive muscular expressions.

• The Protocol: High-precision intramuscular injections targeted directly into the frontalis, procerus, and corrugator supercilii complexes to smooth the overlying tissue canvas.

• Clinical Prep: Start 4–6 weeks before with Thorne Collagen Plus (1 scoop daily) to prime the extracellular dermal matrix.

Crow's Feet & Bunny Lines

• The Problem: Lateral periorbital crinkling and straight or diagonal lines across the upper bridge of the nose when smiling or squinting.

• The Protocol: Micro-targeted neuromodulator relaxation of the lateral orbicularis oculi and nasalis muscle bellies.

• Clinical Prep: Start 4–6 weeks before with Thorne Radiant Skin Complex (2 capsules daily). Discontinue blood thinners 7 days prior.

Lip Flip & Perioral Lines

• The Problem: A thin upper lip that disappears or rolls inward when smiling, along with vertical barcode lines around the mouth frame.

• The Protocol: Superficial subdermal micro-droplets along the orbicularis oris muscle border to gently roll the vermilion border outward for natural fullness.

• Clinical Prep: Antiviral prophylaxis (Acyclovir) must be initiated 2 days prior if you have any clinical history of cold sores.

Painful Masseters Relaxation

• The Problem: Severe teeth clenching, chronic temporomandibular grinding (bruxism), tension headaches, and severe masseter muscle hypertrophy.

• The Protocol: Deep, high-dose perpendicular intramuscular neuromodulator injections directly into the masseter muscle belly to drop chronic tension, paired with advanced autologous growth factor matrix protocols when tissue recovery is indicated.

• Clinical Prep: Start 4–6 weeks before with Thorne Zinc Picolinate 30mg (limit strictly to 3 months) to support cellular matrix remodeling.

Tech Neck & Platysmal Bands

• The Problem: Vertical straining muscular cords and active platysmal bands that pull down the lower face, along with horizontal static neck wrinkles.

• The Protocol: Precise superficial intramuscular micro-droplets of neuromodulators (Botox/Xeomin) to completely relax active, pulling platysmal bands, combined with targeted hyper-dilute Radiesse biostimulatory fanning to thicken the delicate anterior neck skin matrix.

• Clinical Prep: Start 4–6 weeks before with Thorne Collagen Plus (1 scoop daily) + Thorne Vitamin C 1,000 mg (1 capsule daily) to strengthen thin dermal tissue.
