TLDR JOLT uses fillers to lift and tighten the lower face and neck.
The JOLT technique is a noninvasive method using hyaluronic acid fillers to improve jowl appearance and define the jawline by repositioning facial ligaments. A study with 10 Latin women aged 40-65, with 8 completing it, showed significant improvements in jawline definition and jowl sagging reduction, with a mean JAS score improvement of 1.2 at 90 days. The mean filler amount used was 7.4 mL, and patients reported high satisfaction with a mean GAIS score of 1.44. The procedure was well-tolerated, with minor side effects resolving within a week, offering a promising alternative to invasive surgery for facial rejuvenation.
