How to remove jowls at home
Expert comment:
“There are cases when it is not at all necessary to resort to the services of doctors to get rid of jowls. Often, overweight young people simply need to lose weight. Excess fat on the face will disappear, elastic skin will tighten, and the facial contour will become smooth and graceful.
The main thing is to avoid rapid weight loss, otherwise the skin will sag before it has time to shrink. It is best to lose weight by 4-5 kg per month under the supervision of an endocrinologist in combination with physical activity. Fat “burns” only in the muscles, and to get rid of fat in the cheeks you need to tense all the large muscles of the body.”
Maxim Vasiliev, plastic surgeon.

Products you need
Review your diet .
Does it have enough protein-containing foods? You need it to build muscle mass. Animal protein :
- lean poultry meat,
- eggs,
- dairy products.
Don't ignore foods containing plant protein :
- beans,
- chickpeas,
- lentils,
- peas,

For skin to be tight and elastic, it needs collagen . Vitamin C is involved in its synthesis . Therefore, eat foods high in this vitamin:
- bell pepper,
- spinach,
- all types of cabbage,
- greenery,
- citrus,
- kiwi.
Omega 3 and vitamin E will also help keep your skin firm and looking fresh. Your diet must include:
- sea fish
- nuts
- olive and linseed oil
Drinking regime
Water is important for the body!
Drink at least 2 liters a day of pure natural water. Make this the norm for yourself and your skin will not lose moisture.
Massage
Massage is a great way to tone your skin.
This is its main purpose. With the help of massage, blood begins to circulate better. Skin cells are enriched with oxygen, which promotes active regeneration. Lymph flow improves. Any type of massage is suitable for the skin:
- classical,
- honey,
- canned.
Massage with hot and cold stones stimulates and tones the skin very well. It's called stone therapy.
Self-massage
If it is not possible to visit a massage room, you can self-massage your arms, abdomen, and thighs. You can use various massagers.
Do not forget to apply any massage oil to your body before the procedure.
This will have a double effect:
- Your hand or massager will glide easily and will not injure the skin.
- At the same time, the skin will receive nutrition. After all, massage oil is made from natural essential oils and decoctions of medicinal herbs.
Wraps
The wraps perfectly nourish the skin and give very good results.
You can make your own wrapping mixtures or buy them at a cosmetic store.
Oil wrap
For this simple procedure you will need a little olive oil - 50 ml, 3-5 drops of essential oil - lavender, orange or juniper. Cling film.
Apply the mixture to the problem area with massage movements, wrap it in film and lie down to rest for half an hour, covered with a blanket. Then take a warm shower and apply moisturizer.
Such procedures should not be done daily. Once twice a week is enough.
Scrubs
Peeling is an excellent cosmetic procedure not only for cleansing the skin, but also for its smoothing and regeneration.
You can apply the scrub to your skin before taking a shower. Maybe in the sauna. Which will give an even better effect.
Sea salt + honey + coffee grounds work well as a scrub.
How to tighten jowls surgically
If jowls appear on a “heavy” face against the background of large excess skin, the methods listed above will give a weakly expressed aesthetic effect. In this case, the face can only be modeled using surgical lifting.
Platysmoplasty and SMAS lifting will help tighten the jowls on the face. During the operation, the tissues are moved to their previous, youthful position and securely fixed. Excess skin is removed. In the muscle-free area of the lower jaw, the surgeon artificially creates support systems that keep facial tissues from rapidly sagging.
This method eliminates age-related sagging skin, makes the face young and harmonious. Deep folds and wrinkles are smoothed out, the oval line of the jawline is leveled, a deep, even “angle of youth” is formed between the chin and neck, the corners of the lips are raised and the “crying Pierrot” facial expression disappears.
Postoperative sutures are polished after a month and become completely invisible even without makeup.
Let's draw conclusions
Getting in shape after a dramatic weight loss is quite possible. You just need to choose either a home method or a professional one, but there you will have to pay a lot.
So, it’s better to use all the methods together to improve your health and bring your skin into excellent condition! It’s possible to remove loose skin, just set yourself up for it and get down to business!

Comment from Elena Morozova, a nutritionist at the weight loss clinic:
Pressotherapy has proven itself well in the fight against a sagging belly. This completely safe procedure is aimed at dispersing lymph and reducing body volume. It is performed lying down: a special suit is put on the person and air is periodically supplied. Its atmospheric pressure is significantly higher than standard. This session can be compared to diving into water in a diving suit.
