What Non-Surgical Facial Contouring Means at Min Clinic

Facial contouring without surgery focuses on definition, balance, and proportion—not drastic change. Min Clinic designs personalized programs that refine the jawline, chin, cheeks, and under-chin area using energy devices and precision injectables with minimal downtime.

Goals We Help You Achieve

• Sharper jawline and reduced jowl look
• Slimmer lower face (masseter balancing, double-chin reduction)
• Harmonized chin and midface proportions
• Refined cheek and under-eye transitions
• Smoother, lifted contours with healthy skin quality

Our Core Contouring Options

Your clinician will map the best mix for your anatomy and goals.

HIFU Lower-Face Lifting

Targets deeper support layers (including SMAS) to lift and define jawline and under-chin with no incisions.

RF Tightening (Face/Neck)

Uniform dermal heating to firm laxity and smooth early jowls; complements HIFU.

RF Microneedling (Potenza)

Tightens skin, refines pores and acne-scar texture, and sharpens facial lines by improving dermal support.

Injectable Contouring

• Masseter Slimming (neuromodulators): softens a boxy lower face for a V-line effect.
• Chin & Jawline Definition (hyaluronic acid fillers): balances profile and improves shadow lines with natural shaping.
• Under-Chin Reduction (fat-dissolving injections): reduces submental fullness for cleaner angles.

Thread Lift (case-by-case)

Biocompatible threads to reposition mild sagging; often paired with energy devices for longevity.

Skin Quality Boosters

Rejuran, exosomes, and hydration boosters to enhance glow and refine the surface—key for a crisp contour.

How Your Plan Is Built

1. Facial analysis & photos – proportion, symmetry, tissue thickness
2. Mapping – select depth/energy, injection points, or thread vectors if indicated
3. Session – precise treatment with comfort measures
4. Refinement – minor tweaks at review visit if needed
5. Maintenance – schedule based on biology and goals

What to Expect

• Most sessions are 20–60 minutes with minimal downtime
• Immediate “cleaner” lines from definition treatments; lifting and tightening build over 4–12 weeks
• Typical programs: 1–3 sessions per modality, then maintenance every 6–12 months

Comfort, Safety, and Downtime

• Topical numbing or local anesthesia options available
• Temporary redness, mild swelling, or tenderness may occur for 24–48 hours
• Parameter choices and sequencing are tailored for all skin tones to minimize PIH risk

Who Is a Good Candidate

• Mild to moderate laxity or fullness blurring facial angles
• Close to ideal weight but want sharper definition
• Prefers natural, incremental improvement without surgery
• Able to maintain results with skincare and sun protection

Combination Examples

• HIFU + RF Tightening: lift plus firmness for jawline clarity
• Masseter Slimming + Chin/Jawline Filler: V-line refinement and profile balance
• Submental Fat Dissolve + HIFU: reduce fullness, then lift
• Potenza + Rejuran/Exosomes: texture + contour enhancement

Aftercare Essentials

• SPF 50+ daily; avoid sauna/hot yoga for 24 hours after energy sessions
• Gentle skincare for 1–2 days; pause strong actives briefly
• For injectables: avoid heavy pressure and vigorous exercise for 24 hours unless advised otherwise

FAQs

How long do results last?

Energy tightening often maintains 6–12 months; neuromodulators 3–6 months; HA definition 9–18+ months depending on product and area.

Will I look “overdone”?

Min Clinic emphasizes proportion and restraint. Plans aim for subtle, camera-clean lines—not volume overload.

Can I do this before a big event?

Yes—allow 2–4 weeks buffer for settling and best definition, longer for first-time plans or combined modalities.

Is this a substitute for surgery?

For mild to moderate concerns, yes. Severe laxity or heavy tissue may need surgical options; we will advise honestly.
