Chin contouring with fillers
Chin contouring using fillers is a modern method of correcting facial contours. The essence of the procedure is injections of hyaluronic acid, which eliminate asymmetry, replenish volume, and give freshness and youth to the skin.
Contour correction does not require a long recovery period and is performed without general anesthesia. Patients see results immediately after the procedure. The maximum effect appears after two weeks, when the swelling subsides and the filler is evenly distributed under the skin.

General information about the procedure
Stages of chin contouring
Chin contouring lasts about 30–60 minutes and consists of the following stages:
- Initial consultation. The cosmetologist examines the chin, discusses with the patient his expectations from the correction, checks the medical history for contraindications
- Cleansing the skin of the chin. To prevent infection and ensure better delivery of the drug, it is important to clean the chin area of makeup and other contaminants
- Pain relief. The doctor will apply an anesthetic cream or give an injectable numbing agent to reduce discomfort during the procedure. If the filler contains lidocaine, no additional anesthesia is required
- Marking the plastic zone. The doctor marks the treatment areas on the chin with a marker, which helps to distribute the filler evenly
- Injections. The specialist injects the drug into the deep layers of the skin. Typically, about 1-2 ml of filler is used during the procedure, depending on the patient's needs
- Antiseptic treatment. To prevent infection, an antiseptic is applied to the treated area
To reduce swelling and redness in the chin area after contouring, the doctor uses a cooling cream. For optimal results, it is recommended to follow your doctor's advice on post-treatment skin care.

Indications for chin correction with fillers
Chin correction with fillers is recommended for various defects that affect the harmonious appearance of the face. The main indications for contour correction include:
The use of injections for chin plastic surgery not only improves appearance, but also helps to balance facial features. For example, in women with large chins, after the procedure, the outline becomes more graceful, in men, strength and masculinity are emphasized.
Contouring is also effective for reducing a double chin in overweight individuals or older adults with sagging skin. Clear jawlines visually lengthen the neck and improve your appearance.
The decision to carry out the procedure should be made after consultation with a qualified specialist. He will take into account the anatomical features of facial features and select the optimal correction method.
