Facial Balancing in Short Hills, NJ

A balanced face depends on the relationship between each feature, not any single area on its own. Subtle differences in chin projection, cheek volume, jawline definition, or lip shape can significantly influence how harmonious the face appears overall. Rather than focusing on isolated concerns, facial balancing considers how the forehead, nose, lips, and lower face work together to create proportion and symmetry.

Beverly Friedlander MD uses her background as a board-certified plastic surgeon to assess proportion and refine the areas that influence overall facial shape. Her practice in Short Hills, New Jersey, offers facial balancing services for those seeking subtle, expert-guided adjustments.

What Is Facial Balancing?

Facial balancing uses fillersneuromodulators, and structural enhancement techniques to improve the proportions of the face. Instead of isolating one wrinkle or feature, the entire facial framework is evaluated to determine which adjustments will create the greatest sense of harmony.

Small, strategic refinements—particularly to the chin, jawline, and midface—can make a difference in how your face appears in motion and at rest.

What Facial Balancing Can Improve

Facial balancing may help refine:

  • Profile alignment
  • Jawline width
  • Chin projection
  • Midface support
  • Facial asymmetry
  • Hollow or flat midface contours
  • The transition from the lower face to the neck

Facial Balancing Treatment Options

Chin Augmentation

Dermal fillers enhance chin projection, strengthen the profile, or smooth small irregularities. This supports the jawline and improves lower-face balance without surgery.

Jaw Slimming

Neuromodulators relax an enlarged masseter muscle to create a slimmer jawline. This technique softens a squared appearance and adds refinement to the lower face.

8 Point Facelift

A filler-based approach that restores support at eight key points across the midface, jawline, and lower face. This method improves contour and creates more cohesive facial balance.

During your consultation, Dr. Bev will recommend the approach that best suits your anatomy and goals.

Temporal Lift

A Temporal Lift facial balancing treatment targets volume loss in the temple area using carefully chosen dermal fillers or biostimulatory injectables.

Your Facial Balancing Treatment

Your treatment plan may include fillers, neuromodulators, or both, depending on which areas need refinement. Dr. Bev performs all injections herself, placing each product with care to improve alignment and proportion.

You can return to your routine right away. Swelling or tenderness may occur depending on the treatment, but it typically resolves quickly. Fillers offer immediate changes, while neuromodulator results develop gradually over several days.

How Long Results Last

Filler longevity varies by product and placement but typically ranges from several months to over a year. Thicker, more robust fillers used in areas like the cheeks or jawline often last longer than lighter formulas placed in the lips or under the eyes. Your metabolism, lifestyle, and how expressive the treated area is can also influence how quickly your body breaks down the product. Neuromodulators last about three to four months. Maintaining regular appointments helps preserve a consistent, refreshed look and prevents the need for more significant touch-ups later on.
