What is the V-Line Series?

The V-Line Series is a simplified, systematic way of assessing and treating the aging face.

The Main Concept:

"Dermal Fillers can be used to lift, narrow, and contour the face. BTOXN A, Threads, and energy devices can enhance the result ."

Since the basis of aging is volume loss, injection artists use fillers in the:

5th layer | Bone and periosteum: recreate bony foundation.
Example: Ristow space and anterior maxillary region.

4th layer | Deep fat and ligament: reflate fat pad and support ligaments. Use higher G’* filler.
Mainly for lifting and projection. 3 D injection.

3rd layer | Muscles: lift lips/mouth corner elevator muscles via a lever-pulley system to maximize myomodulation effect. This results in maximal cheek and mouth corner lift.

2nd layer | Superficial fat: reposition fat pad. Mainly for surface contour and diminish
shadows.
Example: the inferior orbital fat pad can be repositioned upward to cover or camouflage the lower orbital rim to smooth out the lid-cheek junction and rejuvenate the eyes. Use lower G’ filler.

1st layer | skin: re-drapes skin envelope over bony fundament. Mainly for diminishing lines
and wrinkles. 2 D injection.

*G-Prime — one of the key rheological properties of dermal filler. It refers to the viscosity and elasticity
of the product.
