What are Loose Jowls?

If you have loose, sagging skin below your jawline, you have loose jowls. Loose jowls are sometimes confused with a double chin, but the conditions are different. A double chin occurs from excess fat under the jawline, while loose jowls are the results of sagging skin on the jawline.

What Causes Loose Jowls?

Loose jowls are an unflattering result of – you guessed it – aging! As we age, our ability to produce elastin and collagen decreases, causing skin to sag and droop.

Lifestyle factors can also contribute to the condition, such as smoking or even excessive screen time (“tech neck”). Fortunately, there are multiple treatments for loose jowls that do not require going under the knife!
