Our exceptional experience treating a weak jawline
A weak jawline can occur naturally or develop over time due to ageing, genetics, or a loss of structural support in the lower face. As the skin loses firmness and fat pads shift, the jawline may appear less defined, contributing to a softer, less sculpted look. Factors like weight fluctuations and collagen decline can further emphasise this change. Restoring balance and enhancing contour in this area can create a stronger, more youthful, and harmonious facial profile.
Sharing his techniques and results with other doctors and nurses, Dr. Scott Allison attends domestic and international conferences, passionate about achieving exceptional results. Our team at Ascension are trained by Dr. Allison, using effective, patient-tailored techniques to maintain a high level of care.
“As we age, the jawline can experience skin laxity. This can make a woman’s face appear older and more masculine, whilst the opposite is true for men, who may experience a more feminine profile.” – Dr. Scott Allison

Areas of concern /
Multiple factors can contribute to a weak jawline, and it is crucial for your Practitioner to thoroughly evaluate the underlying cause to determine the most suitable treatment for you. During your consultation, we work with you to understand your facial anatomy and unique aesthetic needs and goals. A personalised treatment plan will then be developed to address weak jawline concerns.
Jawline size and shape
The size and strength of the jaw can be supported from the outer jaw under the ear, through to the side of the jaw and chin to create definition and prominence.
Ageing of the jawline
As we age, we lose bone from the jaw and experience increased sagging from the fat pads. Skin tightening treatments can address the appearance of skin laxity, double chins and less defined facial profiles.
Pixie Ear after a facelift
There can sometimes be a deformity near the ear following a facelift procedure known as ‘pixie ear’. This can be smoothed with non-invasive resurfacing treatments. Dr Allison frequently works with plastic surgeons in Brisbane to improve outcomes after facelifts.

At Ascension, we provide comprehensive cosmetic consultations where your comfort, aesthetic preferences, facial anatomy and skin health are all considered to provide an ideal treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Your consultation at our Brisbane clinic
During your initial consultation, various aspects will be discussed to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the procedure and your specific needs. The consultation allows us to discuss expectations openly and create a treatment plan you can approve.
Firstly, your cosmetic concerns and treatment goals will be discussed. We will listen attentively to gain insight into what you hope to achieve through treating your under-eye concerns. This discussion allows us to explain what can be realistically achieved.
Next, we will thoroughly examine your facial features, asking about the areas of your face where you have concerns regarding darkness and hollowing. We will carefully evaluate your facial anatomy, taking note of bone structure, fat pads and skin laxity. This assessment helps us to determine the appropriate treatment plan required. We may also inquire about any allergies or previous cosmetic treatments. This information is crucial for determining your eligibility for the procedure.
The consultation will also involve a discussion about the procedure itself, including the recommended treatments, the expected duration of the results, and any potential risks or side effects. We can explain the technique involved, ensuring you understand the process and know what to expect during and after the treatment.
Finally, the financial aspect will be discussed. We will provide information about the cost of the treatment, any potential additional expenses, and the expected longevity of the results. We can also discuss the option of follow-up treatments and maintenance. Your treatment costs will depend on the personalised details of your procedure, so it is best to wait until having your consultation before making calculations.
Clinical PathwaysAnd Recommendations
Recommended treatments
At Ascension, we provide comprehensive cosmetic consultations, where your comfort, aesthetic preferences, facial anatomy and skin health are all considered to provide an ideal treatment plan tailored to your needs. You may benefit from a combination approach utilising different treatment methods and a number of sessions, which we will discuss during your consultation.
Wonderface /
WonderFace is a groundbreaking, non-invasive facial toning and rejuvenation treatment that lifts, sculpts and smooths the face in just 30 minutes.As the only treatment to synchronise neuromuscular stimulation with radiofrequency (RF) technology, WonderFace works beyond the surface, targeting both the skin and underlying muscles for real, lasting results. Neuromuscular stimulation strengthens and tones facial muscles, enhancing definition and restoring volume, while RF technology boosts collagen and elastin production to firm and tighten the skin.
There is no recovery time after a Wonderface session and results can be seen immediately with ongoing improvements.
Ultraformer MPT /
Using the latest in high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) technology, the Ultraformer MPT contributes to facial lifting, skin tightening and facial contouring. It’s a versatile non-invasive procedure using ultrasound waves to target and breakdown fat cells in the lower third of the face, while also promoting the production of collagen to tighten the skin.
Depending on the amount of facial sagging in the target areas, 2 – 3 sessions of Ultraformer MPT are usually recommended to contour the face. Results can continue to be seen up to six months after the treatment, however you may benefit from maintenance sessions as time goes on.
Facetite /
FaceTite uses radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL), with a few small incisions. The treatment can remove unwanted fat while simultaneously stimulating collagen and elastin production, prompting the skin to tighten.
The treatment can be a suitable alternative to a traditional facelift, using fewer incisions. FaceTite can treat areas of the lower face, including the cheeks, jawline and chin. Since the treatment does require incisions, downtime can include some swelling and bruising, but your personalised aftercare instructions will help you support your body’s healing process.
