3 Non-Surgical Ways For V-Face: Uplift, V- Lift & Liquid Lift
Time and tide wait for no man, or woman. As we age, expect the youthful V silhouette of our face to take on a more rounded or heavier appearance, what we call the inverted V or A shape.
Some reasons why this is so:
1. Natural decline of collagen in the support scaffolds of our face
2. Middle-age weight gain
3. Age-related bone resorption, so cheeks and neck begin to sag and skin hangs loose

Otherwise, here are our top 3 non-surgical ways to restore that lifted V-shape.
1. Microfocused Ultrasound with Visualization (MFU-V)
First up, there is Microfocused Ultrasound with Visualisation (MFU-V) . This is the FDA-approved high-intensity focused ultrasound technology that stimulates collagen renewal, allowing the sagging fat pads to be lifted while tightening the overlying skin. A good candidate is someone with good tissue elasticity and sufficient cheek volume, who wishes to tighten and restore elasticity to their skin Results kick in after 2 months, with a subtle uplift. This treatment can last up to 1 year.
2. Microneedling Radiofrequency (lower face tightening)
Next, there is Microneedling Radiofrequency (lower face tightening)* that slims and lifts from chin to cheek. Suited for those with larger chins or jowls, radiofrequency energy melts away unwanted fats around and under the jawline, while the tiny micro-wounds to the skin then stimulate collagen and elastin. With less fat and tightened skin, the lower face is sculpted to align with the natural bone structure, redefining the jawline. There is minimal discomfort. Expect to need 1-2 treatments for long-lasting and natural-looking results.
3. Liquid Lift
Lastly, falling cheeks and jowls are commonly caused by a loss of facial volume. In ‘fillers for lifting’, hyaluronic acid fillers are strategically deposited to restore support to lift sagging cheeks and contour the face and jawline. Results are immediate with minimal downtime, natural-looking, and can last up to a year.
IYAC’s Approach
Although each of these treatments may be done singly, IYAC customises each individual’s plan with synergistic treatments for good outcomes.
These once-yearly treatments at IYAC help to achieve a fresh, natural-looking and youthful V-face with minimal downtime, all without surgery.
