The GJS scores of the mandibular contour on both sides of the subject need not be identical, but must be either 2 or 3. 3. Assessed by the researchers, the subject's mandibular contour is expected to achieve at least a 1-point improvement in GJS score after hyaluronic acid injection. 4. Willing to sign the informed consent form.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Have undergone or plan to undergo permanent facial prosthetic implantation (e.g., silicone prostheses, etc.) during the study period. 2. Have received or plan to receive dermal filler injections (e.g., autologous fat grafting, hyaluronic acid fillers, regenerative dermal fillers, etc.) in the zygomatic region, chin, or mandibular margin within 18 months prior to enrollment or during the study period. 3. Subjects who have undergone facial photoelectric therapy within 2 weeks before enrollment. 4. Known allergy to any local anesthetics (e.g., lidocaine or other amide - type anesthetics). 5. Patients with abnormal coagulation function (activated partial thromboplastin time [APTT] > 1.5 times the upper limit of normal [ULN]), or those who have received any thrombolytic agents, anticoagulants, or antiplatelet drugs (e.g., warfarin, aspirin, etc.) within 2 weeks prior to enrollment. 6. The lower facial region has tattoos, piercings, prominent facial hair (e.g., beard), scars, deformities, unhealed wounds, active skin diseases, inflammation, or infections (e.g., herpes, acne, eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, shingles, etc.), abscesses, active or persistent perinasal infections, malignant tumors, or precancerous lesions that may affect efficacy evaluation or increase treatment risks. 7.

Subjects with a tendency to form keloids, hypertrophic scars, or any other wound healing disorders. 9.

Subjects with severe dysfunction of major organs (e.g., brain, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, etc.) as judged by the investigators; those with severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, severe lung diseases, liver function (ALT, AST) > 2 times the ULN, renal function (Cr) > 1.5 times the ULN, and subjects with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus. 11. Subjects who have participated in other clinical trials within 3 months prior to enrollment in this study or are currently participating in other clinical trials. 12. Females who are pregnant or lactating. 13.
