Chin Shaping with Hyaluronic Acid

The chin is a telltale area that often reveals signs of aging, particularly in women. Loss of deep fat layers, combined with gradual gum recession and thinning of the bone structure, affects the lower face, making the chin less contoured. The indentation under the lips, also caused by tissue loss and sagging skin, can create an unflattering, pitted appearance of the chin.

Besides surgical chin augmentation, there exists a non-surgical chin enhancing and shaping treatment that provides a quick, safe, and effective solution for achieving a youthful and harmonious aesthetic appearance. By injecting premium hyaluronic acid gel, chin shaping can be achieved in two ways: by contouring the jawline and enhancing the chin. Often, combining these two methods yields the most beautiful results.

Contouring sharpens the outline of the chin and improves the profile of the face, while enhancement creates a youthful, shapely chin that harmonizes with the face. Our skin becomes firmer and more volumized, and by injecting in the right places, the “V” shape of the face can be enhanced, often creating the popular heart-shaped face. The filler also smooths the wrinkles and folds under the mouth, tightens the area under the chin, and reduces the size of the double chin.

Hyaluronic acid not only increases volume but also softens and hydrates the skin. It also supports the production of collagen and elastin underneath the skin, giving the skin a refreshed, younger appearance.
