Facial balancing refers to a series of cosmetic procedures aimed at achieving facial symmetry and harmony. A balanced face is often considered more attractive and youthful, and can greatly enhance one’s self-confidence. 

Facial balancing involves a combination of surgical and non-surgical procedures to address various facial features such as the nose, chin, cheeks, and jawline.  A balanced face is one where the features are in proportion to each other and the face is aesthetically pleasing. For instance, a small chin can make the nose appear larger, while a prominent nose can make the chin seem smaller. Facial balancing procedures are designed to correct such imbalances and create a more harmonious facial structure. Board certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Eric Yavrouian provides facial balancing procedures to patients in Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Greater Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, CA, and surrounding communities.

Facial Balancing Procedures

Facial balancing procedures can be broadly categorized into surgical and non-surgical procedures. The choice of procedure depends on the individual’s unique features and desired outcome. Here are some of the most common facial balancing procedures:

Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure that can alter the size, shape, and position of the nose. It is often done to address breathing problems or correct a deviated septum, but it can also be done for aesthetic reasons to improve the balance of the face. Rhinoplasty can make the nose more proportionate to other features and enhance the overall facial balance.

Chin Augmentation

Chin augmentation is a surgical procedure that involves the use of implants or bone advancement to increase the size and projection of the chin. It can address a receding chin and create a more defined jawline. A well-defined chin can enhance the balance and proportion of the face, especially in relation to the nose.

Cheek Augmentation

Cheek augmentation is a non-surgical or surgical procedure that involves adding volume to the cheeks. It can be done using injectable fillers or implants to create a more defined cheekbone and enhance the balance of the face. Cheek augmentation can also help to lift sagging skin and improve the overall appearance of the face.

Lip Augmentation

Lip augmentation is a non-surgical procedure that involves the use of injectable fillers to increase the volume and definition of the lips. It can address thin or asymmetrical lips and create a more balanced facial appearance. Lip augmentation can also enhance the overall facial symmetry by creating a more harmonious relationship between the lips and other facial features.

Jawline Contouring

Jawline contouring is a surgical or non-surgical procedure that involves reshaping the jawline to create a more defined and masculine or feminine appearance. It can address a weak or asymmetrical jawline and improve the overall balance of the face. Jawline contouring can be done using surgical procedures such as genioplasty or non-surgical procedures such as injectable fillers.
