Facial Balancing
The passage of time, coupled with shifts in weight or bone density, can subtly disrupt your ideal facial proportions, leading to an appearance of fatigue or imbalance. Facial balancing is the highest form of aesthetic medicine, treating the whole face with thoughtful precision to create harmony. At Manor, we offer this treatment because it perfectly embodies our philosophy: achieving a stunning aesthetic appearance through subtle enhancement, ensuring your outer presence reflects your inner vitality.

Restoring lost facial volume, improving facial proportions

Facial balancing is an advanced approach that uses hyaluronic acid dermal fillers. Add volume where it's been lost by utilizing these leading brands:
Juvederm (Voluma, Volux)
Restylane (Defyne, Contour)
Voluma or Restylane Lyft
Vollure or Refyne
The foundation of a facial balancing procedure is the detailed consultation, where your specialist analyzes the ratios and shadows of your face to define your specific areas for enhancement. During the session, the hyaluronic acid fillers are carefully selected based on their density (or thickness), which determines how they integrate with the underlying tissues.
For example, a denser filler might be chosen for the chin, while a softer product (like Volbella) would be used for the lips. Injections are placed strategically using fine needles or cannulas, often targeting bone structure to restore foundational support and achieve a powerful, yet subtle, lift that enhances your overall aesthetic appearance.
Facial balancing primarily addresses the subtle asymmetries and volume loss that occur over time, particularly in the mid-face, jawline, and chin. It refines the appearance of mild jowls and marionette lines by restoring support to the upper face, helping to create an improved overall silhouette and enhanced facial symmetry.
The enduring benefit of facial balancing is achieving facial symmetry and a refined look that avoids the single-feature fixation. Because the technique restores facial volume where it is structurally needed, the outcome is often an improved proportion that makes you look rested, healthier, and more defined, never "done."
By correcting subtle hollowing and enhancing bone structure, we reinforce your most desirable features. Our approach ensures an elegant, natural-looking result that supports your confidence and momentum for months to come.
Facial balancing is an ideal cosmetic procedure for healthy adults seeking a sophisticated, comprehensive improvement in their overall aesthetic appearance and symmetry. Ideal candidates are those who recognize subtle volume loss and desire a holistic, natural-looking correction. You should have realistic expectations for filler longevity. The treatment is not recommended if you are pregnant, nursing, or have a known allergy to any component of the hyaluronic acid fillers.
The downtime associated with this injectable fillers treatment is minimal. You may experience some swelling and minor bruising at the injection sites, which typically peaks on the second day. We recommend gently applying a cool compress to the treated areas for a short period. For the first 24 hours, avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat exposure, and massaging the area unless directed by your specialist. This simple care ritual ensures the filler settles precisely as intended.
You will see an immediate aesthetic appearance improvement after your facial balancing session due to the filler placement. Any initial swelling will subside over the following one to two weeks, revealing the final refined contours. Depending on the specific hyaluronic acid fillers used, the results can last anywhere from six months to nearly two years (with high-density fillers like Voluma or Volux). This long-lasting refinement is an intentional investment in your sustained momentum.
Facial balancing requires not only medical proficiency but an advanced artistic eye to perceive and correct subtle imbalances. Our specialists are trained to assess the entire facial structure using sophisticated aesthetic principles, moving beyond single-feature fixes. We select from the comprehensive families of Juvederm and Restylane products, choosing the optimal filler density for each specific area to deliver precise, seamless, and natural-looking results.
This marriage of clinical precision and aesthetic intuition defines the Manor standard of bespoke care.
Hyaluronic acid fillers (HA fillers) are gel-like substances that mimic the body's natural substance that binds water and adds temporary volume. We use leading lines from Juvederm (including Voluma, Volux, and Volbella) and Restylane (including Contour, Defyne, and Kysse). Each product has a different thickness, allowing our specialists to customize the treatment for lift, structure, or delicate smoothing.
Our approach is one of subtle, strategic enhancement, prioritizing facial symmetry and facial proportions over excessive volume. We focus on restoring lost support, not creating an artificial look. The goal is always a refreshed, natural-looking improvement that honors your existing features and leaves you looking more rested and refined.
The longevity of your results depends on the filler type used (which varies by the area being treated) and how quickly your body metabolizes the hyaluronic acid. Typically, results last between 6 and 18 months. We work with you to develop a maintenance schedule that supports your aesthetic goals and helps you sustain your beautiful, balanced appearance.
Because facial balancing is a holistic approach, it often requires a greater total volume of filler to address multiple zones (cheeks, jawline, temples, chin) and restore true structural support. However, this investment yields a more harmonious and longer-lasting aesthetic appearance than focusing on isolated lines. Pricing is always transparent and discussed during your consultation.
We prioritize your comfort. The hyaluronic acid fillers used in our practice often contain lidocaine, a local anesthetic, which numbs the area during the injection. Additionally, we may apply a topical anesthetic before the procedure to ensure that the entire experience is as comfortable and seamless as possible.
