Facial Balancing

What Is Facial Balancing?

Facial balancing is all about strategically utilizing fillers to optimize facial features naturally. Instead of focusing on augmenting a specific area, think of it as a way to balance your face, emphasizing your favorite features, and supporting those that might need a subtle enhancement. Facial balancing aka facial harmonization serves as a nonsurgical refresher, aiming to uplift and brighten your overall appearance. Facial harmonization can give you a more symmetrical face and help you to look younger which can give people the boost in confidence in their appearance they need. Full facial balancing is used to address the entire face including areas like:

  • Forehead

  • Temples

  • Under Eyes

  • Cheeks

  • Jawline

  • Chin

$700 per syringe

Facial Balancing typically requires 3+ syringes

How Do Face Balancing Fillers Work?


Facial balancing with fillers typically requires 3-5 syringes of hyaluronic acid-based and/or Radiesse®, ensuring a symmetrical effect across your face. Contrary to what one might think, this isn't an excessive amount. When a patient wants to achieve a sculpted jawline alone, 5-7 syringes are typically utilized. So, when you think of facial balancing, consider it as a touch here and a touch there. Once settled, other people shouldn't detect any noticeable "augmentation." This procedure is personalized for each individual.

FAQs

How many syringes are needed for facial balancing?

Our facial balancing procedure treats your whole face, instead of just targeting a single area. Patients at our medical spa for men can expect 3-5 syringes for an even and symmetrical outcome. If more extensive correction is necessary, we might spread the sessions out and explore other treatments, such as Botox and laser resurfacing.


Who is the ideal candidate for facial harmonization?

Almost every patient is a candidate for facial harmonization. This is an ideal procedure for someone who’s looking to make a modest improvement to their overall face balancing by treating multiple areas.


What filler is used for facial balancing?

We use both FDA-approved hyaluronic acid-based fillers and Radiesse®, which is a calcium-based filler for asymmetry that stimulates collagen and elastin. In most cases, we will use a variety of different fillers to correct asymmetry, we choose the filler that is best suited for each specific area treated.


How much is facial balancing? 

We offer fair pricing based on the number of syringes regardless of brand. Each syringe is priced at $700 with full facial balancing with fillers typically requiring 3+ syringes.


Do you have facial balancing before and after photos? 

Yes! In addition to what is featured on this page, you can see various examples of our work on our Instagram page @lushfulaesthetics


Can I receive temple filler and under-eye filler separately?

We only offer temple filler and under-eye filler as part of our facial balancing procedure. You can visit the pages for these procedures to learn more about how they contribute to creating an overall balanced appearance.


Will I look "overdone" after a face-balancing treatment?

No, that’s quite the opposite of the goal. During face balancing, we take a holistic approach to treating the whole face in small amounts to create a beautiful and harmonious result.


What's the difference between facial balancing and traditional filler treatments?

Facial balancing considers the entire face and doesn’t just focus on individual features. This prevents the patient from looking like one feature alone is “too much”. The idea is to keep the results simple and of course, balanced.


How safe is the nonsurgical facial balancing procedure?

Facial balancing is as safe as any other facial filler procedure. It’s important to see a well-trained medical professional who has several Before + Afters of their work for you to review.


How long is the recovery for face balancing with fillers? 

As with most filler treatments, face balancing with fillers takes about 2 weeks to settle in. Residual swelling may linger for up to 4 weeks. We recommend that patients plan in advance 4-6 weeks before any major events.


How often do I need to have facial balancing done? 

This is a multifactorial question. Everyone is different regarding the level of “correction” they’re trying to maintain and achieve. If you pride yourself on looking aesthetically optimal at all times, you may want small yearly touch-ups combined with Botox and laser resurfacing. On the other hand, if you’re just looking for a pick-me-up treatment and want to ride it out and not worry about maintenance there’s nothing wrong with that and you’ll slowly see your results fade over 1-3 years depending on the amount of filler you received.
