Chin Filler

The chin is one of the most important elements that determine the shape of the face. However, the shape and form of the chin have the ability to directly affect the beauty and harmony of the face. Age and genetic factors can cause the chin and the tip of the chin to deviate from its ideal shape. As a result, the harmony and aesthetic proportions of the face are disrupted. Chin filler, on the other hand, allows the chin to gain the necessary form, mask structural disorders and shape the chin in harmony with the shape of the face without surgery. In this way, many correction and shaping procedures related to the chin line can be done very easily in a very short time without the need for any surgical intervention, incision or stitching.

What is Chin Filling?

Chin filler is one of the most frequently preferred applications in chin aesthetics. With chin filler applications, it is possible to correct many problems such as asymmetry, inequality and hollowness in the chin and also to shape the chin in accordance with the shape of the face. The chin tip, in particular, has a great effect on the appearance of the face. When the chin tip is not prominent or is further back than it should be, an unpleasant appearance occurs on the face. As a result, other parts of the face such as the nose, forehead or cheekbones may appear larger than they are. Although chin filler applications are a frequently applied method to eliminate such problems, they may not be sufficient in some cases. For this reason, people who complain about deformities in the chin should first consult a specialist, undergo a detailed examination and determine the most appropriate treatment option for them. In cases where the physician deems it appropriate, the necessary plans for chin filler or different aesthetic applications can be made and implemented.

Why is Chin Filling Done?

Chin filler is applied to fill the hollows in the chin and to equalize the most prominent points and provide a softer appearance. Various types of fillers are used to shape the lower face area.

The most common deformities seen in the chin include lack of volume in the chin, the chin being further back than it should be, an unclear jaw line, sagging or asymmetry in the jaw line. Jaw-related disorders can also cause other parts of the face to look different than they are. Therefore, when many patients convey their requests for aesthetic surgery on different parts of their face to their doctors, they are faced with the fact that the main problem is disorders related to the chin.

A clear and strong appearance of the chin shape and line allows both women and men to have a more attractive appearance. It is also effective in achieving a more lively and youthful looking face. For this, it is important for the jaw bone to extend symmetrically in an appropriate direction. Although the jaw bone is regular, if there are problems in the skin tissue or fat layer on the chin, disorders due to these may also occur in the appearance of the chin. In such cases, the chin filling procedure may be preferred to eliminate the problem.

-The chin has an uncertain appearance,

How is Chin Filling Applied?

Chin filling is basically applied to achieve the desired appearance of the chin by injecting special filling ingredients into the chin. Chin filling is a method that can be preferred in people who have deformities in their chin that can be corrected with filling applications. Before chin filling applications, the person’s facial appearance is photographed and evaluated from different angles. After structural deformities are detected, the area where the chin filling injection will be made is determined. The fillers used in chin filling applications usually include hyaluronic acid. In some cases, the use of fillers with different properties such as bovine collagen or fat cells obtained from the patient’s own body, calcium hydroxylpatite and biodegradable polymers may also be preferred.

Chin filling is usually performed under local anesthesia. For this, creams that will create a local anesthetic effect are used in the application area. After the anesthetic cream is applied, the area is waited for numbness. After the anesthesia procedure, the filling material is injected under the skin using small needles. Chin filling is a painless and ache-free procedure and is usually performed within 15 minutes.

The chin filler procedure is usually completed in a single session. If the doctor deems it necessary to make a correction during the follow-up examination, an additional injection may be administered.

After the chin filler procedure, slight redness may occur in the application area. Such redness usually subsides and disappears on its own within a few hours. Patients can quickly return to their daily lives after the procedure.

The duration of the injected filler may vary depending on the filler used, the applied dose, the person’s structure and current condition. Hyaluronic acid fillers usually maintain their permanence for 12-18 months. During this period, the hyaluronic acid dermal filler injected under the patient’s skin is gradually absorbed by the body. As a result, the chin line regains its appearance before the chin filler procedure. The procedure can be renewed at this stage. The chin filler procedure can be performed by a specialist and experienced doctor in the field, which can completely correct structural deformities in the chin.

What are the advantages of chin filler?

Chin filler is an extremely simple and painless procedure, and many deformities in the chin can be corrected in a single session with this procedure. The fact that the chin filler procedure is a non-surgical procedure is considered a great advantage over other applications.

Chin filler is a procedure that can be applied under local anesthesia, does not require surgical intervention and does not require long recovery periods. Since it is a procedure that is completed in a short time, it does not require long hours.

People whose chin line is highlighted with chin filler have a younger facial appearance. They benefit from the advantage of creating a chin appearance that will be compatible with their face shape. People with a receding chin can achieve the ideal chin appearance with a single session. Chin filler applications, which have a very low probability of developing complications after the application, give the face an extremely pleasant expression.
