Introduction
In general, exercises such as occlusion, jaw stretching, jaw compression, cheekball movements, and tongue lifts can be performed to train the jawline and make it more defined. However, these require long-term consistency, and results vary from person to person. For faster and more noticeable jawline enhancement, medical aesthetic procedures such as injectable type A botulinum toxin, hyaluronic acid fillers, thread lifting, or mandibular angle osteotomy may be used.
