Do you want to have a chin that looks like a celebrity’s?
That subtle change of the chin shape can make a big difference in most people. It can give more confident, bold, and youthful-looking.
Chin filler is done to contour (better fit the surrounding) the lower face, to elongate the face shape, or to improve proportionality of the face.
Typically the fillers with higher G’ Prime (structure support index), such as Juvederm Voluma or Restylan Lyft, are used in the chin area.
The procedure takes only a brief time and well tolerated by most people even without any numbing agent. Chin filler is done with 1-3 syringes of a filler, and its effect lasts about 1-2 years.
Chin contouring with filler
Do you want to have a chin that looks like a celebrity’s? That subtle change of the chin shape can make a big difference in most people. It can give more confident, bold, and youthful looking.
As we age the skull rotates and the chin moves backwards. This skull movement leads to bone and soft tissue in the chin area looking retracted, resulting in reduced structural support in the lower face.
Chin filler is done to contour (better fit the surrounding) the lower face, to elongate the face shape, or to improve proportionality of the face.
How can you tell if your chin filler will improve face appearance? The forward-most point of the chin should be on the same vertical plane as the forward-most point of the lower lip. Filler should be added anteriorly to the chin in such case.
Another way to test if chin filler will enhance your facial beauty is to measure the distance between the eyebrow and the base of the nose and compare that with the distance between the base of the nose to the base of the chin. If the latter is shorter chin filler may compensate the deficit.

What is the dermal filler made of?
Majority of the Dermal fillers are transparent hyaluronic acids, which are sugars naturally found in the skin that help provide hydration, fullness and elasticity.
Hyaluronic acid diminishes as we age, causing skin to lose volume while increasing wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. Because the dermal fillers are very similar to our own body’s naturally occurring hyaluronic acid, most people tolerate the product without any problem. Hyaluronic acid is also used medically for degenerative (worn out) joints to provide cushion in place of cartilage.
