Definition built through the tissue itself rather than added volume, with no needles and no recovery time afterwards.
Surgical contouring removes or repositions tissue. Filler adds volume to change an outline. Neither is what we do. Face contouring at Face and Body Perfection is structural work on the tissue you already have: clearing fluid load, mobilizing the fascia, and improving the quality of the skin that sits over it.
At the Sunnyvale studio, face treatments are delivered using Endospheres® Compressive Microvibration®, 55 rotating silicone spheres that stimulate the facial tissue mechanically to produce drainage, toning, and collagen response. At the San Ramon studio, face treatments use ICOONE® Roboderm® technology, which works through multi-microalveolar stimulation of the connective tissue. Both devices are non-invasive and work without heat, injectables, or any recovery time. The mechanism differs, the outcome is the same.
Nothing is injected and nothing is removed. The change comes from the tissue reorganizing, which is why it builds gradually and why it depends on how the tissue starts. Facial contouring and jawline contouring are among the most searched non-invasive face treatments in the Bay Area – and among the least served by device-based studios. Read how the same principle applies to the body on the body sculpting page, or start with facial lymphatic drainage if puffiness is your main concern.
The jaw line and the area under the chin are where fluid, laxity, and fascial density overlap most closely. As drainage improves, the outline of the jaw becomes visible again. As the tissue under the chin is worked, the skin there firms and the angle between neck and jaw reads more defined.
Drainage change is usually noticeable after the first session. Structural change generally becomes visible from session four to six onward, with a typical course of six sessions under forty and twelve over forty, run twice a week. Protocols are reviewed every four sessions. Individual results vary.
ICOONE works through Roboderm® multi-microalveolar stimulation. Hundreds of independent micro-cups engage the tissue thousands of times per minute, lifting and releasing in a pattern the hand cannot reproduce. On the face the handpiece is smaller and the parameters are calibrated for thinner skin.
The target is the microvacuolar network described in Jean-Claude Guimberteau’s intra-tissue endoscopy research: connective tissue is not layered sheets but a continuous fibrillar web that slides, stretches, and recovers. Contouring the face means restoring the mobility of that web. The published studies are listed on the ICOONE research page.
Reshaping the jawline and under-chin area is the structural goal, but the tissue changes do not stop there. Endospheres® and ICOONE® both stimulate collagen and elastin production through mechanical action on the fibroblasts, the cells in the connective tissue responsible for maintaining skin firmness. Improved microcirculation means the tissue receives more oxygen and nutrients with each session, which accelerates cell renewal and improves skin quality alongside the structural definition.
Clients booking specifically for jawline contouring consistently report that the skin tone and texture across the entire lower face improves as the protocol progresses. It is a side effect worth mentioning upfront, because it is one of the more convincing things that distinguishes device-based contouring from filler, which adds volume but does not improve the tissue underneath it.
Both devices stimulate the fibroblasts that produce the proteins responsible for skin firmness and elasticity.
Better blood flow oxygenates the tissue, improving radiance and accelerating cell renewal.
Chronic facial muscle tension, including crow's feet, mimicry lines, and brow heaviness, softens as over-contracted muscles are mechanically relaxed.
Cumulative improvement in skin tone, texture, and luminosity across the face and neck as the connective tissue reorganizes.
Unlike filler, all changes are structural and come from the tissue itself.
Open Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday.
Clients travel here from San Jose, Santa Clara, Mountain View, Cupertino, Palo Alto, Los Gatos, Fremont, San Mateo, and San Bruno. Some travel from Morgan Hill.
Open Monday through Friday.
Clients travel here from Danville, Dublin, Pleasanton, Walnut Creek, Blackhawk, Alamo, Lafayette, and Livermore. Clients also make the trip from Oakland, Castro Valley, Berkeley, and San Francisco.

Non-invasive face contouring changes the outline of the face by working the tissue itself rather than adding or removing anything. At Face and Body Perfection that means mechanical treatment of fluid load, fascial density, and skin quality with ICOONE®. Nothing is injected and nothing is removed.
Facial contouring refers to treatments that improve the definition of the face – jawline, under-chin, cheekbone area – without surgery or injectables. At Face and Body Perfection, facial contouring and jawline contouring are delivered through ICOONE® Roboderm® technology, which works on the connective tissue beneath the skin to improve structural definition and reduce fluid load.
Injectables change the outline by relaxing muscle or adding volume, and the effect fades as the product does. Mechanical contouring works on the structure underneath: drainage, connective tissue mobility, and skin firmness. It builds gradually and is maintained with periodic sessions rather than repeat injections.
Yes. The under-chin area is one of the main focuses, because fluid retention, skin laxity, and fascial density overlap there. As drainage improves and the tissue firms, the angle between the neck and the jaw reads more defined.
A typical course is six sessions for face under forty and twelve for face over forty, run twice a week. Protocols are reviewed every four sessions and adjusted based on observed tissue response.
Yes. Face and body can be treated in the same appointment, usually two hours or more, or split across alternating visits depending on your goals and availability.
Available at both studios.
Intro session applies to your first visit only and may be credited toward a package if you continue.
Available at the San Ramon studio only.
