When it comes to reversing the signs of ageing and perfectly balancing the aesthetics of the face, the chin and jawline are always overlooked. People tend to focus on other areas without realising the chin and jawline define our appearance in many respects. In fact, a defined jawline can be the most striking feature of the face and if the jawline is sagging it will create an ageing appearance.
Perfecting the shape of the jawline and chin helps to restore balance to other areas of the face, such as the nose and lips. The chin and jaw also add balance the proportions and vertical dimensions of the face, to help make sure that the lower third is equal to the middle and upper third of the face.
Chin and jaw fillers are dermal fillers that are injected into the prejowl, chin and the jawline areas to rejuvenate and smoothen the skin, while also adding some definition to the face. The chin can be elongated and lengthened, as well as projected downwards or forwards to create the perfect ratio between the chin, nose and lips. These same fillers are used to enhance the jawline, to soften or strengthen the look and harmonise it with other facial features. Jawline fillers give the face a ‘face-life-like’ look.
This dermal filler also fills wrinkles, folds and scars to smoothen the appearance of the chin and jaw.
Before we begin, we will have a consultation with you to understand the look you are trying to achieve and areas of your chin and jaw that you are unhappy with. We will then do an analysis of your chin and jawline and tailor your procedure to suit your needs. We will discuss the entire procedure with you and answer any questions you have.
At the start of the procedure, we will use an aesthetic to numb the area for you and then we will inject the fillers into your chin and jaw, shaping the filler as we go to create the perfect look.
The procedure is relatively simple and painless, it takes less than 30 minutes and results can be seen instantly. There is no recovery time and full after care is provided and included for free.
Yes, they are a safe and effective alternative to surgical procedures (including implants). You may find some swelling or bruising initially, but this will subdue in a couple of days.
The jaw is actually one of the safest areas on the face to have dermal filler, fillers are generally very well tolerated and tend to have few side effects or complications. Swelling can occur but is not as noticeable as the swelling produced in other areas of the face after a dermal filler.
No, chin and jaw fillers will last between 18 and 24 months as the filler is made of Hyaluronic acids, which the body slowly breaks down. This means that you are not making a lifelong, long-term commitment, allowing you to try a new look.
