It’s easy to spot the difference between well-placed fillers…
…and those that miss the mark.
The best results have that natural, balanced look, and there’s a simple reason behind it. A big part of achieving those smooth, natural results comes down to the strategic placement of dermal fillers in key areas of the face.
Precisely identifying areas of the face that would benefit the most from filler injections isn’t always easy, as everyone’s facial anatomy is different. This is where filler face mapping comes into play. Mapping can create a personalized plan for each client, helping you claim more and more successful stories.
In this blog, we’ll explain why filler face mapping is so important. Plus, we’ve included a FREE facial filler template to document your patient care ✨
Key areas to include in filler face mapping
In essence, filler facial mapping guides practitioners in placing injections in the right location on the face and at the right dosage.
Since everyone’s facial structure differs, customized facial maps are essential, as what works for one person might not be suitable for another.
Including filler face mapping as a step in your consultations can help you and your injectors to know exactly where to place face fillers for optimal results, lessening the chances of your clients looking overdone or experiencing side effects.
Let’s now look at the main areas to focus on…
Forehead and temples
Filler mapping is all about addressing volume restoration and adding more facial harmony, especially on the forehead and temples.
Facial ageing can’t be reversed, but with the right injection plotting techniques, fine lines can be improved and minimized.
Once you identify the areas that need a boost, you can work on creating a more youthful, refreshed appearance or better symmetry, depending on the client.
Cheeks and mid-face
The cheeks and mid-face area are key determinants of a person’s facial structure.
Lack of volume, especially in the cheeks, can diminish youthfulness. However, there are filler treatments that can help with volume loss, without necessarily requiring invasive plastic surgery needing months-long recovery.
So, mapping these specific areas for cheek filler injectable treatments helps restore volume and bring facial rejuvenation. Filling in the gaps generally gives the face a more balanced and lifted look with better facial volume.
Nasolabial folds and marionette lines
Did you know that the marionette lines are among the first to appear – often before your 30s? Accompanied by the nasolabial folds, these lines can often make you look much older than you truly are, or for that matter, older than you feel! Juvederm and Botox can always come to the rescue, though!
Once you start mapping these sections, you can do a much more precise job and give your client better facial symmetry after removing their deep lines.
Lips and chin
Lip and chin fillers are among the most popular face fillers on the market.
A poll of the VICE UK Snapchat audience conducted by Save Face found that 68% of 47,000 people stated they had someone in their close circle who had had a lip filler enhancement procedure done.
This treatment has risen in popularity by 50% compared to the 2000s — even the keyword ‘hyaluronic acid filler’ shows a massive spike in Google Trends in the past decade.
With lip and chin fillers so popular in 2024, even small mistakes can stand out.
If you map these areas, you’ll deliver more precise results and help clients achieve their aesthetic goals with balanced, enhanced proportions, and avoid challenges such as vascular occlusion in the injection site (blockage in blood vessels).
Whether it’s fuller lips or a more defined chin, accurate filler placement makes all the difference.
Jawline
The world has always been fascinated by celebrities with strong, defined jawlines. Take Angelina Jolie or Margot Robbie, whose facial bone structures are immaculate and who inspire countless client references.
Now, it’s more common than ever for clients to walk in and ask for a more defined jawline. No one wants jowls, right?
A strong jawline can make a big difference in your overall appearance. With accurate mapping of the jawline, you’ll help define and sculpt your client’s face for a more structured look and give a better definition to their lower face.

How to use the customizable filler face mapping template
Now that you understand the key areas to focus on, let’s talk about how you can best use a filler face mapping template.
Customizing the template for each patient
Every face is unique, so your filler mapping template should be, too.
Customize it to reflect each patient’s facial structure, aesthetic goals, and specific treatment plan.
Precise filler placement can help get the best possible results. And this is how you make sure clients trust you and your business for whatever procedure they’re after.
Documenting before and after results
Face mapping is an excellent way to monitor progress, providing a clear visual record of improvements over time – even if they’re subtle.
Documenting before-and-after photos makes the experience better for both you and your patients. You can track the impact of treatments, and even share them with clients via secure url. It’s also better for compliance purposes.
With practice management software like Pabau, you can take photos and mark up your images with the product you’ve used and the areas that were injected, and all the information is safely stored in the client record.
