Rediscover Harmony with Facial Balancing
Facial balancing is a modern approach to facial rejuvenation that moves beyond treating one area at a time. Instead, it takes into account the entire face, enhancing proportions, restoring facial symmetry, and creating a naturally youthful appearance.
Using dermal fillers and advanced non-surgical treatments, facial balancing helps define contours, smooth wrinkles, and restore volume loss without the need for cosmetic surgery. Patients often ask for this procedure when traditional spot treatments, like isolated lip augmentation or under-eye filler, fail to deliver the natural beauty they're looking for. Dr. Bonakdar's holistic techniques avoid the "overdone" look and instead focus on enhancing each patient's facial harmony and natural contours.
Facial Balancing At Bonakdar Aesthetics
At Bonakdar Aesthetics, facial balancing is not a trend, it's a foundational philosophy. Dr. Monica Bonakdar has been practicing full-face rejuvenation for decades, prioritizing a holistic view of facial aesthetics long before it became the current trend. Her extensive training, Allergan instructor status, and innovation in techniques like MD Codes and her proprietary AmpliPhi Filler Technique make her one of the most trusted providers in Newport Beach, CA.
Each treatment is carefully customized, often incorporating hyaluronic acid fillers alongside regenerative modalities like PRP, exosomes, or microneedling. Patients turn to Dr. Bonakdar for natural-looking results, improved skin texture, and a more youthful appearance that feels true to their facial features.
Facial balancing is a minimally invasive treatment approach that enhances facial proportions and symmetry. Rather than targeting individual concerns like smile lines or tear troughs in isolation, it addresses the face as a whole. Dr. Bonakdar will develop a plan to restore lost volume, smooth wrinkles, and improve skin texture across multiple regions.
This approach often includes hyaluronic acid fillers to subtly enhance areas like the cheeks, chin, jawline, temples, or lips. Complementary treatments like microneedling, chemical peels, or PRP may be added to stimulate collagen production and improve facial skin quality.
Facial balancing can enhance your appearance in subtle ways. It’s ideal for those looking to refresh their look without extensive downtime, and comes with a wide range of benefits.
Facial balancing is suitable for individuals experiencing visible signs of aging or imbalanced facial proportions. It’s a popular choice for patients noticing an aged appearance due to volume loss, loss of skin elasticity, or excess skin. Candidates often feel that individual treatments like fillers or Botox no longer create cohesive or satisfying results.
Ideal candidates include those who want to enhance facial harmony, define contours, and refresh their look using a non-surgical treatment. Whether you're dealing with asymmetry, hollow cheeks, a weak chin, or sagging in the mid face, facial balancing can address multiple concerns simultaneously. Patients must be in overall good health and free of active infections, and should not have allergies to ingredients found in hyaluronic acid fillers.
What Issues Does Facial Balancing Address?
Over time, the mid face can lose fullness, resulting in a hollowed, sagging appearance. Facial balancing uses dermal fillers to restore volume and create smoother contours.
Hollow tear troughs can contribute to an aged, tired appearance. By adding volume under the eyes with hyaluronic acid fillers, Dr. Bonakdar reduces shadowing.
A recessed chin or lack of jawline definition can disrupt facial balance. Carefully placed injections help define contours and create a more structured lower face, without surgery.
Facial balancing corrects uneven facial features by harmonizing proportions across the forehead, cheeks, nose, and lips. This improves facial symmetry in a subtle, natural-looking way.
Dynamic wrinkles, such as smile lines and laugh lines, often deepen with age. Strategic filler placement smooths nasolabial folds and restores a plump, rejuvenated look to the mid and lower face.
Rather than isolated lip augmentation, facial balancing takes the lips' relationship to the face into account. This makes sure the volume added to the lips enhances overall facial balance.
We start with a consultation at Bonakdar Aesthetics in Newport Beach. Dr. Bonakdar will analyze your facial appearance, skin condition, and unique structure to determine the best approach to enhance facial harmony. She’ll discuss your concerns, evaluate previous treatments if applicable, and explain how facial balancing differs from standard cosmetic procedures.
Before treatment, patients should avoid alcohol, aspirin, and anti-inflammatory supplements for a few days to minimize the risk of bruising at the injection sites. In some cases, Dr. Bonakdar may recommend additional treatments, like microneedling or chemical peels, to improve skin texture and support optimal results.
Facial balancing is performed in-office and typically takes under two hours. A topical numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort, and Dr. Bonakdar carefully maps the injection sites based on your personalized plan. Using MD Codes and her AmpliPhi Filler Technique, she administers hyaluronic acid fillers precisely where needed to restore volume, define contours, and enhance natural features. Depending on your needs, she may incorporate regenerative boosters like PRP or exosomes to further stimulate collagen production and improve the skin.
Results from facial balancing are often visible immediately, with continued improvement as mild swelling subsides over the following few days. Most patients return to their normal routines within 24 to 48 hours, making this a popular alternative to surgical procedures for those seeking impactful, low-downtime treatments.
Your results can last from several months to two years, depending on the fillers used, your body’s metabolism, and whether additional treatments are included. Maintenance appointments every 12 to 18 months help extend results. Post-treatment care may include avoiding alcohol, strenuous exercise, or excessive sun exposure for a day or two. Dr. Bonakdar will guide you through a personalized aftercare plan to ensure optimal results.
Every facial balancing procedure at Bonakdar Aesthetics is tailored to the individual. Costs vary depending on the number of areas treated, the type and quantity of dermal fillers used, and whether other services like PRP, exosomes, or microneedling are included. During your consultation, you’ll receive a transparent cost breakdown and treatment roadmap. While facial balancing may involve more upfront investment than isolated injections, it offers better value by addressing the entire face at once.
