The chin is perhaps the most defining feature of the bottom third of the face. The structure of your chin can affect the look of your jawline, neck, and overall face shape. With that in mind, chin filler—or non-surgical chin augmentation—can offer several aesthetic benefits for patients wanting to address their chin and jawline.
Hyaluronic acid fillers are most commonly used in the chin and are made from the naturally occuring substance, hyaluronic acid. When injected, fillers augment the chin’s projection and enhance the shape. Depending on the patient’s goals, this can bring subtle balance to the face, address a specific shape issue, or help define the jawline.
At InjectCo, we specialize in transforming your facial features with our expertly crafted Chin Fillers and Chin Augmentation procedures. Whether you’re seeking a non-surgical solution for jawline contouring or a more permanent chin implant, we offer tailored treatments to help you achieve the look you desire.
Chin fillers Plano are popular among men and women. Unlike other treatments that may be more popular with one gender, chin fillers appeals to all genders because of the common beauty standards shared when it comes to the chin and jawline. However, there are still differences between the typical goals of a man and a woman, as well as the techniques used to achieve these goals.
Men often want to maintain a strong, square chin and jawline. They also tend to favor more projection both outward and downward. When injecting with these details in mind, the filler is placed more with projection in mind. Depending on the patient’s starting anatomy, they may require more filler to achieve their goals.
Women—while some do want to increase chin projection—they often seek out a sharper jawline and a rounded, proportionate chin. To do this, an injector may shape the filler more during the injections to limit the projection to fit the ideal proportion, but also take on an attractive and feminine shape.
Many patients who come into the office interested in jawline filler end up undergoing chin filler injections. This is because chin augmentation Plano elongates the contour of the jawline by extending the projection of the chin. For many, this subtle procedure can create a sharper and more defined jawline without major surgery, or even using a large amount of filler.
The ideal chin proportion is that the end of the chin projection aligns with the tip of the nose. Anything less is known as a recessed chin. Most people with a recessed chin will not notice it because it is such a tiny difference. But, once balanced with filler, the shape of the face and jawline can look much different. Additionally, for people with an extremely recessed chin, non-surgical chin augmentation can be life changing.
Jaw filler does still exist though and it is often used to widen the jaw when viewing the face straight on. Though, patients do sometimes get filler in the jawline. Ultimately, the right jaw contouring procedure is best determined during a consultation at Injectco in Plano, TX.
Chin and jawline filler can come with many possible benefits for patients:
Adults in good health are likely to be good candidates for chin filler Plano. The patient’s goals and anatomy should also be compatible with the procedure and the results it can provide. As a minimally invasive treatment with few major complications or side effects, non-surgical chin augmentation is considered a safe and effective treatment for most people. However, certain major or unmanaged medical conditions may put patients at a higher risk. Also, patients should not undergo filler injections while pregnant.
An injector at Injectco will examine the patient and their medical history to determine if they are a good candidate for chin filler injections.
Unlike chin augmentation surgery where a silicone implant is placed, non-surgical chin augmentation Plano does not require lengthy downtime or a painful recovery. Patients can return to their daily activities immediately. However, patients may need to avoid strenuous exercise for one to two days. They should also use caution in daily life. Most of these considerations prevent uncomfortable side effects and promote the ideal aesthetic result based on the patient’s treatment.
Patients may be asked to massage the filler and will be shown how to do so properly. Acetaminophen can be taken to relieve any minor discomfort, but patients should use caution when choosing ibuprofen or other NSAIDs because they can cause worsen or prolonged bruising. Your injector will provide personalized aftercare instructions based on their specific treatment.
The final result from treatment will take about two weeks to come in. Based on the specific filler used, chin filler results last around one year. Though, certain fillers may last up to two years.
