The shape, position, and projection of the chin play an important part in creating balance and harmony in the face. A well-defined and proportional chin can enhance the overall facial profile, while a receding or weak chin may contribute to the appearance of ageing or imbalance. Chin rejuvenation with injectables is a nonsurgical approach to addressing these concerns. By using dermal fillers, we can subtly enhance with chin, improving its contour and restoring volume that may have diminished over time. Anti-wrinkle injections can also be used to relax the muscles that contribute to a dimpled or ‘orange-peel’ chin texture, smoothing the area and providing a more refined appearance.
Combining these treatments allows for a tailored approach, addressing both the volume and the skin quality, helping to restore youthful structure and balance. The result is a natural enhancement that blends seamlessly with the rest of the face. Nurse Julie is an experienced practitioner who can precisely assess your facial anatomy and customise the treatment to your needs.
CHIN REJUVENATION
What can happen to my chin with ageing?
Particularly with females, there can be significant changes with the chin appearance over time. These changes can result in a line that looks like a half circle or full circle on the chin itself. We also all lose some bone as we age, and as our jawbone shrinks, we start to notice jowls and a more sagging chin.
Why is my chin not defined?
An under formed or weak chin can be genetic, a part of ageing or in other cases a facial accident/deformity at birth.
Who is a good candidate for chin rejuvenation?
Anyone looking to enhance the shape, projection or definition of their chin can benefit from this treatment. It’s especially effective for patients with a recessed chin, an undefined jawline, or those noticing volume loss due to ageing.
What is the downtime after treatment?
There is little to no downtime after this treatment. You may experience some mild swelling, bruising, or redness, but this usually resolves within a few hours. Most people return to their normal activities right away.
How can having dermal fillers in my chin help?
By having a specialist treatment in this area can enhance the overall appearance of the chin and is an excellent way to shape and create a more symmetrical profile. Dermal fillers can also be used on the chin and its surrounding area to stiffen the skin and define the chin and jowl area, making it appear stronger. It can also lengthen and enhance ones lower facial appearance creating a more balanced profile.
What does the treatment involve?
Nurse Julie will numb the area with a numbing cream or numbing injections and then inject the product directly in the chin or around the area itself. The placement of each injection will vary depending on your facial shape and the look you are aiming to achieve.
How long does the procedure take?
Chin rejuvenation is a relatively quick procedure, typically taking around 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the areas being treated and the complexity of the enhancement.
Can chin rejuvenation be combined with other treatments?
Yes, chin rejuvenation is often combined with other treatments, such as jawline contouring or cheek fillers, to create a more harmonious overall facial profile. A customised treatment plan can be designed by Nurse Julie based on your aesthetic goals.
