CHIN FILLER TREATMENT
BY Dr Berry
Chin filler, also known as chin augmentation or chin enhancement, is a cosmetic procedure that uses injectable fillers to enhance the size and shape of the chin. This treatment is popular with people who have a weak or recessed chin, a chin that is out of proportion with the rest of the face, or those who simply want to achieve a more defined jawline.
The Treatment.
Chin filler treatment involves the injection of a hyaluronic acid-based filler into specific areas of the chin to add volume and definition. The filler is carefully injected into the chin in a way that enhances the natural contours of the face and creates a more balanced and proportionate appearance.
​
One of the main advantages of chin filler treatment is that it is a non-surgical procedure, which means there is no need for incisions or general anaesthesia. The procedure is quick and there is little to no downtime. Patients can usually resume their normal activities immediately after the treatment, although some may experience mild swelling or bruising in the treatment area for a few days.
​
The results of chin filler treatment are immediate and can last for several months to a year, depending on the type of filler used and the individual's metabolism. To maintain the results, patients may need to undergo repeat injections.
Chin filler treatment is generally considered safe, although there are some risks associated with any medical procedure. These risks include bruising, swelling, infection, and allergic reactions. It is important to choose a qualified and experienced medical professional to perform the procedure and to follow all post-treatment care instructions to minimise the risk of complications.
​
Overall, chin filler treatment can be a great option for patients who want to enhance the size and shape of their chin without the need for surgery. If you're considering this treatment, it's important to do your research and find a medical professional who can help you achieve your desired results. Your provider can also help you determine if chin filler treatment is right for you based on your individual goals and medical history.
