Methods: A brief literature review on jaw augmentation using injectable fillers, as well as a case report. Results: Observed through a quantitative evaluation method, obtained through stereophotogrammetry with the Vectra software, quantified through a metric scale of motion vectors and a metric scale of relief observed during treatment. Conclusions: There is high efficacy in the use of highly crosslinked hyaluronic acid filler, Restylane@LyftTM, using the MD Codes technique for volumization and redefinition of the mandibular contour.
