Chin Filler

Jawline shaping with dermal fillers, also known as chin filler, is a popular non-surgical option for men and women looking to improve the contour of their jawline or jowls.

A sharp and defined jaw is often associated with a youthful and aesthetically pleasing facial profile. That’s why more and more people are turning to dermal fillers as a non-surgical alternative to chin or jawline implants. A chin filler treatment is a relatively simple procedure that takes less than 15 minutes and is performed without much discomfort or downtime. In the right hands, the results are very natural and aesthetically pleasing.

What is Chin Filling?

A chin filler is a medical aesthetic procedure designed to improve the definition and shape of the jawline. With aging, the skin and soft tissue receding due to gravitational forces, as well as bone resorption changes, lead to a change in appearance with the development of anterior jowl sulci and an overall ill-defined jawline. Patients with signs of aging in the lower face area may prefer the chin filler procedure to achieve a more youthful appearance in this area. Younger patients may be candidates for the chin filler method to gain a more feminine or masculine appearance.

Is There an Age Limit for Chin Fillers?

All filler injections, including chin fillers, can be performed after the age of 18. However, chin filler injections can be performed on people who are under the age of 18 but have social and psychological problems due to the appearance of their chin, with the approval of the doctor and the approval of their parents.

Who is Suitable for Chin Fillers?

Chin fillers can be applied to people who have significant deformities and sagging in the chin area,

-A larger or smaller volume in the chin than is considered normal,
-A jawline that is unclear or asymmetrical,
-A person who wants to have a thinner and more defined chin,
-A person whose face looks fatter because the lower jawline is not sufficiently separated from the neck or because the chin is too far inward.

How is Chin Filling Done?

Before the chin filler injection, an anesthetic cream is applied to the application area and waited for it to take effect. After regional numbness is achieved, the filler is injected into the previously determined areas using fine-tipped needles. In addition to fine-tipped needles, cannulas can also be used during the injection.

In order to obtain natural results after the chin filler injection and to obtain a facial profile that is suitable for the patient’s facial structure and expectations, the right dose should be injected into the right points. Since the jaw line is an area with dense nerves and vessels, chin filling must be performed by an experienced doctor who is familiar with the anatomical structure of the area.

Each chin filler procedure is different. It is planned specifically for each patient according to how much filler is needed and where the filler is injected. Therefore, the size of the swelling and bruising that occurs after the filler injection will vary from patient to patient. There may be mild to moderate swelling or bruising in the injection areas or in the treated areas. Swelling and bruising can be reduced by applying ice compresses for the first two days after the procedure and keeping the head elevated during sleep after the procedure. Bruised injection areas can be covered with concealer makeup 24 hours after the procedure. Post-treatment pain is usually mild and can be managed with simple painkillers if necessary. In areas where chin filler injections are made, the results of the filler injection are typically seen after the swelling in the area has decreased.

Chin Filling Prices

Chin filling prices are determined on a person-by-person basis; how much filler will be used, which filler will be applied, the scope of the application and the experience of the doctor who will perform the application.

When is Chin Filling Performed?

With age, the bone mass in the skull begins to be lost. This causes the cheeks and face to deflate and the fat in the face to sag down due to gravity. When this bone loss occurs in the chin, a saggy and loose skin appearance may develop in the lower face. This can cause the jaw to appear more square, the neck to become looser, and a double chin.

Chin filler injections can be used for the following purposes:

-Reducing the effects of volume loss in the lower face due to aging,
-Creating a more oval-looking jawline,
-Reducing the appearance of a double chin,
-Shaping the jawline and creating a sharper appearance,
-Balancing an asymmetrical jawline,
-Strengthening the jaw and providing proportion.

Chin filler can be applied to patients of all ages. It is a popular treatment for young patients who suffer from a genetically weak jaw, but it is also frequently requested by older patients whose jawline has lost its elasticity and strength due to aging. In patients who will receive chin filler, the cheeks should usually be addressed before addressing the jawline to ensure that the tissues in the face have sufficient support.

What are the Advantages of Chin Fillers?

The biggest advantage of chin filler is that it does not require a surgical procedure. Accordingly, patients can continue their daily lives where they left off after chin filler injection. There is no need for a long recovery period as in surgical procedures. The results of the injection can be noticed immediately after the application. The tip of the chin being left behind or appearance deformities that occur due to different reasons can be eliminated with a fast and simple procedure. In addition to structural deformities that occur in the chin due to genetic reasons, problems that occur due to trauma, impact, accident, aging or other factors can be addressed with chin filler; sagging in the chin area, sharpness or flatness of the chin tip, ambiguity of the chin or very deep dimples in the chin can be eliminated. With chin filler injection, patients can be provided with a chin structure that is compatible with their faces and a younger appearance. On the other hand, chin filler has much more affordable prices compared to surgical procedures applied for chin aesthetics.
