As we age, many of us start to notice a softening of the jawline. That once-firm edge becomes a little blurrier. The skin beneath the chin may begin to droop or sag. These changes—often referred to as jowls—are one of the most common ageing concerns we hear about at Soothe Luxury Skincare & Spa.
The good news? There’s a lot we can do to help prevent and visibly improve jowls using natural, non-invasive, collagen-boosting techniques—without injectables or drastic interventions.
Why Do Jowls Develop?
Jowls are caused by a combination of skin ageing, muscle laxity, fat displacement, and changes to the underlying bone structure. Let’s break that down:
1. Collagen and Elastin Breakdown
From your mid-20s, your skin starts to produce less collagen and elastin—proteins responsible for strength and bounce. As these fibres degrade, skin becomes thinner and less able to hold its shape, especially around the jawline.
2. Fat Pad Shift
Youthful cheeks are supported by fat pads that give volume and lift. As we age, these fat pads shift downward, causing sagging in the lower face and jowl formation.
3. Muscle Weakening
Facial muscles, including the platysma in the neck, weaken over time. This contributes to downward pull and a loss of jaw definition.
4. Bone Loss
The jawbone gradually shrinks and recedes with age, reducing structural support for the overlying tissue.
5. Lifestyle Accelerators
Sun exposure, smoking, poor diet, stress, and tech-neck (constantly looking down at phones) can all accelerate these changes.
Can We Prevent Jowls?
To a degree, yes. While we can’t stop ageing, we can slow its visible effects by supporting the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production and maintaining a healthy facial structure.
💧 Everyday Prevention Tips:
Wear a toxin-free SPF 30+ daily to protect collagen from UV damage.
Eat a colourful, varied, antioxidant-rich diet to nourish skin from the inside out (fights accelerated ageing).
Limit sugar, alcohol, and smoking, which can contribute to collagen breakdown.
Practice good posture to avoid tension and pulling in the neck and jaw.
Use skincare with peptides, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C to support firmness and hydration. Our brands contain effective levels of actives (read this blog on angel-dusting).
How We Treat Jowls at Soothe – The Soothe Approach
At Soothe, we take a holistic, results-driven approach to ageing. We specialise in collagen-boosting, non-invasive skin therapies that work in harmony with your skin—not against it. Our reputation was built on helping women age well without injectables, offering unique, natural methods of facial rejuvenation that enhance rather than alter your appearance.
Here are the tools we use to help soften jowls, restore jawline definition, and lift your confidence:
Our PureDerma treatment combines microneedling with targeted radiofrequency (RF) energy. As the microneedles stimulate collagen production, the RF heats the deeper dermal layers, triggering collagen contraction and long-term remodelling.
This dual-action treatment:
Firms and tightens the lower face
Reduces the appearance of jowls
Smooths skin texture and improves tone
It also helps relax the platysma muscle, which can contribute to a lifted, more sculpted jawline.
Venus Viva uses fractional RF to rejuvenate the skin, remodel collagen, and visibly firm the jawline and neck. It’s ideal for clients experiencing:
Early signs of skin laxity
Loss of definition along the jaw
Crepey or uneven skin texture
It’s gentle, effective, and delivers progressive lifting results without downtime. It also helps relax the platysma muscle, which can contribute to a lifted, more sculpted jawline.
Our Freeze & Firm facial uses controlled cooling to stimulate collagen, reduce inflammation, and tighten skin without downtime. It enhances circulation, calms puffiness, and promotes a more lifted, sculpted look to the jaw and neck area.
Best for:
Puffiness and fluid retention
Mild sagging and dull skin
Post-treatment maintenance
💆♀️ Lymphatic Facial
This is our signature facial massage treatment, combining deep lymphatic drainage with vacuum suction, and sculpting with gua sha to de-puff, lift, and re-contour the face naturally.
Best for:
Early jowling
Water retention or puffiness
Tired, sluggish skin
💆♀️ Facial Lifting Massage
Sometimes, the hands are the most powerful tool of all. Our new Japanese-inspired Kobido lifting facial includes sculpting massage techniques that:
Tone and lift facial muscles
Improve lymphatic drainage
Restore natural facial contours
This is a beautiful choice for those who prefer a hands-only approach or want to maintain results between advanced treatments. Book yourself in with our newest Espa trained team member, Daisy.
We often pair our collagen-boosting facials with red and near-infrared LED light therapy. These wavelengths penetrate deeply to:
Stimulate fibroblasts to produce more collagen
Reduce inflammation and promote healing
Improve overall skin texture and tone
The Results? A Naturally Lifted, Defined Jawline
Our clients often tell us:
“I don’t want to look different—I just want to look like me again.”
That’s exactly what we aim for at Soothe. With a customised plan, we can help you lift and firm the jawline, soften jowls, and maintain a radiant, youthful appearance—the natural way.
