If you dislike the appearance of your jowls, our Plastic Surgery and cosmetic clinic in Albury-Wodonga is here to help with sagging jowls treatment! Led by Dr. Queenie Chan, an experienced plastic and reconstructive surgeon, we offer personalised care, a nurturing approach, and surgical solutions to help you combat signs of ageing and rediscover your youthful radiance.
Jowls usually occur as a result of sagging skin and a decreased elasticity in the soft tissues of the face. Neck lift surgery is the most effective way to treat this condition, removing excess skin and effectively contouring your jawline for a more youthful, revitalised appearance.
Alternatively, there is now a revolutionary minimally invasive approach using a radiofrequency energy delivery system called FaceTite. FaceTite procedure, when combined with Morpheus 8, can provide a powerful corrective treatment for excess fat in the jowls and address loose skin.
All surgical procedures are carried out by Dr. Queenie Chan, an experienced plastic and reconstructive surgeon who is a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, member of the Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ASAPS).
Our jowl removal treatment effectively addresses various concerns, including:
Begin your journey to a rejuvenated appearance with a personalised consultation. Dr. Queenie Chan will listen to your concerns, assess your facial anatomy, and develop a customised treatment plan tailored to your needs. Keep in mind that this is a surgical procedure, and while you are in qualified, experienced hands, there are risks involved with any surgery.
Once your personalised plan is in place and we have a complete medical history, you will be booked in for your jowl removal procedure. Dr Queenie Chan and our team will be available for any questions you may have about the procedure. This procedure is carried out in hospital under general anaesthetic, and you will need to spend a day or two in hospital to minimise complications and support your healing.
In the beginning, you can expect bruising and swelling, which may persist for a few days. Nevertheless, the overall recovery period averages around two weeks. Resumption of normal activities is typically recommended after four weeks and suture removal usually takes place approximately 5 to 10 days post-surgery.
As swelling and bruising goes down, you’ll notice a gradual improvement in the firmness and contour of your jawline. Results continue to enhance over time and once your recovery period is complete, you will see the full results of your newly refined jawbone, as well as a refreshed and youthful appearance that looks entirely natural.

If you still have some questions below you can find our most frequently asked questions about our Enlarged Pores Treatment in West Albury:
Sagging jowls are primarily caused by a combination of factors such as ageing, genetics, and a loss of skin elasticity. Over time, the skin’s collagen and elastin fibres break down, leading to a reduction in firmness and the appearance of sagging along the jawline, known as jowls.
While surgical procedures like facelifts can be effective in addressing sagging jowls, they come with inherent risks, longer recovery times, and potential scarring. Minimally invasive radiofrequency treatment options such as Facetite are gaining traction as an effective way of addressing saggy jowls. There are non-surgical options, such as dermal fillers or skin resurfacing procedures, which have gained popularity for their effectiveness, when combined with surgery or Facetite.
The longevity of jowl removal results depends on the chosen method. Surgical procedures such as a lower face and neck lift or FaceTite tend to offer longer-lasting outcomes, often up to 10 years or more. Non-surgical options may provide results lasting from several months to a couple of years, requiring periodic maintenance sessions for sustained effects.
The ideal time to consider jowl removal varies for each individual. Generally, people start contemplating these procedures when they notice significant sagging or loss of skin elasticity. However, there is no fixed age, and decisions are often based on personal preferences and the extent of concerns.
Finding the right surgeon is crucial for a successful jowl removal experience. Consider the following steps:
Remember, selecting the right surgeon is a crucial step in achieving the desired results and a positive overall experience with jowl removal.
