"One night about four months ago, I was doing my evening skin care routine and noticed a change in my face so subtle, it could have been an illusion. My jawline appeared more sculpted, my face more symmetrical than usual. I leaned toward my mirror to get a closer look and scanned the contents of my vanity, wondering which product in my regimen could be credited with this sudden glow-up - and, to my confusion, found none."
"Before I got Invisalign, I viewed it as an unsexy task I had to check off my health-related to-do list. Save for my pesky gap, I knew that realigning my bite and giving my teeth a little straighten-up zhuzh would be good for my dental health. After getting my mouth scanned and my clear trays sent over, I dutifully tolerated wearing my aligners for the prescribed 22 hours a day for my seven-month treatment, extra spit and all."
"Invisalign didn't seem like it belonged in the same category as Botox, filler, and facials - beauty treatments that I do consider glamorous, and that deliver an intentional, noticeable glow-up. And yet, when I finished my last tray and graduated to a nightly retainer, the results were just as satisfying. The facial changes I noticed - a sharper jawline and more balanced face - weren't dramatic, but they were there, and they weren't something I had expected."
A person noticed subtle facial changes— a more sculpted jawline and improved symmetry—while doing an evening skincare routine. The only changed variable was an eight-month Invisalign treatment started to close a small dental gap. The person wore clear aligners about 22 hours daily over a seven-month treatment, tolerating discomfort and extra saliva. After finishing the last tray and switching to a nightly retainer, facial changes persisted: sharper jawline and a more balanced face, modest but noticeable. Invisalign was initially seen as a health-related task rather than a beauty treatment, but similar post-treatment facial effects have appeared on TikTok.
