Chin Augmention with Facial Fillers

Juvederm is a facial filler made up of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that helps to bind water to cells. Juvederm Voluma is a very cohesive filler that is an excellent choice for areas like the cheeks and chin. It has also been shown to last up to two years in clinical studies. Like other hyaluronic acid fillers, it appears smooth and natural when placed in the chin.

Some minor swelling is expected, which usually resolves within one to two days. A small percentage of patients will also develop minor bruising that can usually be covered with makeup. Patients should avoid exercise for twenty-four hours after the procedure to minimize swelling. Otherwise, patients can resume work and normal activities.

Liquid chin augmentation is an office-based procedure that enhances the appearance of the chin and lower face. The material most commonly used for these procedures is Juvederm Voluma. Patients who seek chin augmentation have a desire for more chin projection with better definition. By adding volume to the chin and lower jawline, the skin below the chin is also tightened, often improving the neckline as well.

Any individual who desires improved chin shape and projection may be a good candidate for chin augmentation. Patients who would like to avoid surgery or an implant, but would like to improve the appearance of their chin, would also be good candidates as well.

The results of liquid chin augmentation vary from patient to patient. However, in experienced hands, the results should last at least nine to twelve months, or even up to two years in some cases.

Chin fillers are often composed of hyaluronic acid and we use Restylane Contour, Restylane Defyne, Restylane Lyft, Juvederm Voluma, or Juvederm Volux.

The results from chin fillers generally last between twelve and eighteen months, though the duration can vary based on the type of filler used and how your body metabolizes it.

Mild side effects such as swelling, bruising, and redness around the chin area may occur, but these usually subside within a few days.

If hyaluronic acid fillers are used, the results can be dissolved using hyaluronidase, an enzyme that breaks down the filler to reverse it if necessary. Many patients dissatisfied with their filler results from other offices turn to us for correction.
