Face sculpting is often associated with surgery or other invasive methods such as dermal fillers, thread lifts, and other medical aesthetic treatments. But fret not, options are available for those who prefer to try non-invasive and non-surgical treatments to achieve their desired sculpted face.
Benefits of Face Sculpting
Enhanced Facial Definition
Face sculpting treatments can help to enhance the facial shape with more defined features and profile, which in turn improves facial symmetry. Whether it’s enhancing natural facial contours or creating a sharper silhouette, facial sculpting is a key aesthetic treatment for achieving our desired appearance.
Anti-Ageing
As we age, our skin starts to lose its shape and there may be sagging and bone resorption in some areas of the face, causing a tired and older appearance. Face sculpting treatments can return youth to our faces by increasing our skin elasticity and lifting and firming loose and droopy skin for more supple skin and a V-shaped contour.
Types of Non-Surgical Face Sculpting Treatments
Non-surgical face sculpting treatments have gained popularity due to their reduced downtime and risks. While surgical face sculpting treatments tend to have more permanent results as opposed to non-surgical treatments, technology now is also more advanced and non-surgical treatments can also achieve effective and visible results.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are one of the most well-known non-surgical aesthetic treatments for face sculpting due to its ability to enhance facial features prominently. Fillers can volumise parts of the face that have sunken or sagged for a fuller, firmer, and more symmetrical facial shape. They can also sculpt facial areas such as the nose and chin, and enhance the lips, to give the face a more defined 3D appearance.
BTX
BTX, also known as Botulinum toxin, are minimally-invasive injections designed to relax facial muscles and smooth fine lines and wrinkles. It can also sculpt the face by relaxing the jaw muscles, or the masseter muscles, to reduce the square-jaw look and create a v-shaped face and jawline.
Threadlift
Face threadlifts, including nose threadlifts, are a common non-surgical aesthetics procedure for face sculpting in Singapore. Threads can lift the nose and the face for a sculpted face and also help to stimulate collagen production for firmer skin and lasting results.
Non-Invasive Face Sculpting Treatments in Singapore
Although non-surgical and minimally invasive face sculpting treatments have lower downtime and risks involved, there are some who would still prefer entirely non-invasive treatments to achieve their desired face goals.
Face Sculpting Massage
Face sculpting massages can temporarily alleviate puffiness in the face to define facial contours and offer a slimmer, sculpted facial shape. However, massages cannot permanently reshape the face and thus cannot replace facelifts, so it’s important to go into these with the right expectations.
Korean Bone Reshaping
Korean Bone Reshaping is a hand technique that uses gentle but precise bone adjustments to reshape the face and achieve a smaller face or a slimmer, V-shaped face. This non-surgical and non-invasive face sculpting method lifts and tones the face, and visible results can generally be seen after one session. For enhanced and more lasting results, multiple sessions are typically needed.
illumiaFace combines Korean Bone Reshaping, Gua Sha, and Chinese Acupressure, to improve lymphatic drainage and smooth tense connective tissue (fascia). By reducing facial bloating, facial fats, and double chin, the customised illumia Face Sculpt treatment also relaxes facial muscles, and naturally lifts and sculpts for more defined facial features.
Bone Reshaping is also different from face sculpting massage in that this technique, as its name suggests, can realign and restructure our bones to shape and sculpt our face. By improving facial symmetry and enhancing the facial silhouette for a more V-shaped appearance, a more youthful, lifted, and defined appearance can be achieved.
While non-surgical and non-invasive cannot completely replace surgical and invasive options for face sculpting, it is often useful to build a strong foundation for our facial shape by realigning the bones and reshaping the face. With a balanced and symmetrical face, aesthetic treatments can then build on this existing structure to enhance the results and help us achieve our desired look, be it with a more lifted nose bridge, or a more prominent chin.
