What Is Facial Balancing?

Dr. Alexandra Snodgrass says facial balancing is a new term, not a new treatment: everything she does is to achieve it. That can mean a little Botox between the brows to help lift them, filler for a heightened upper lip, filler to project the chin, or Botox to slim the masseters.

Let's talk about facial balancing. I'm board certified dermatologist Alex Snodgrass, and I want to talk about this new term, because every day I have a patient on the schedule who comes to see me for facial balancing.

Well, here's the secret. Everything that I do is to achieve facial balancing, whether we're using a little bit of Botox between your brows to help lift the brows, whether we're using a little bit of filler to achieve a heightened upper lip, whether we're projecting the chin using filler, or slimming the masseters with Botox. All of these things are to achieve facial balancing.

It's not a new or popular term that has now entered my practice. I've been doing this since I learned how to use these products and do these procedures. So if you're looking for facial balancing, you're in the right place. That's all I do. Let's talk a little bit in the comments.
