What is Chin Augmentation Using Fillers?
Chin augmentation using fillers, such as MaiLi, Juvederm, and Ellanse, is a non-surgical procedure designed to enhance the shape and contour of the chin. These dermal fillers are injected into specific areas of the chin to add volume, define the jawline, and improve facial harmony. The procedure is minimally invasive, involves little to no downtime, and provides immediate results that can last from several months to a couple of years, depending on the type of filler used.
How Can Chin Augmentation Address the Patient’s Concern?
- Enhancing Facial Profile: By adding volume and definition to the chin, fillers can create a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing facial profile.
- Correcting Chin Retrusion: For patients with a recessed or underdeveloped chin, fillers can project the chin forward, improving overall facial harmony.
- Smoothing Chin Dimples and Creases: Fillers can smooth out dimples, creases, and wrinkles on the chin, creating a more youthful and smooth appearance.
- Improving Jawline Definition: Enhancing the chin can also accentuate the jawline, giving the face a more sculpted and defined look.

Chin Filler Frequently Asked Questions
Still have questions? Contact our team who will be happy to answer any queries or concerns.
Chin augmentation is a medical procedure designed to enhance the shape and contour of the chin. This can be achieved either through surgical implants or non-surgical dermal fillers. The goal is to create a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing facial profile by adding volume and definition to the chin area.
The duration of chin augmentation results depends on the method used:
- Dermal Fillers: Non-surgical fillers such as Juvederm or Ellanse typically last between 9 months to 2 years, depending on the specific product and individual factors.
- Surgical Implants: Chin implants provide a permanent solution, although the initial recovery period is longer compared to fillers.
- Chin Augmentation: This procedure involves enhancing the size and shape of the chin, usually to correct a recessed or underdeveloped chin, using either fillers or implants.
- Chin Reduction: This procedure aims to reduce and reshape an overly prominent or protruding chin. It is a surgical procedure that involves removing or reshaping bone and possibly soft tissue to achieve the desired contour.
Whether a chin implant is better than filler depends on individual needs and preferences:
- Chin Implant:
- Advantages: Permanent solution, more significant and long-lasting results, suitable for major alterations.
- Disadvantages: Involves surgery, longer recovery time, potential surgical risks.
- Dermal Fillers:
- Advantages: Non-surgical, minimal downtime, reversible, and customizable results.
- Disadvantages: Temporary, requiring periodic maintenance, less effective for major changes.
Choosing between a chin implant and fillers depends on the extent of enhancement desired, tolerance for surgery, and individual aesthetic goals. Consulting with a qualified professional like Dr Sabika Karim at Skin Medical can help determine the best option for you.
