What are Chin Fillers?
Chin fillers are a type of dermal filler treatment that uses substances like hyaluronic acid fillers to add volume and definition to your chin. This cosmetic procedure is a popular choice for patients seeking to balance their facial features without undergoing invasive surgical procedures.
Chin fillers are best for you if you wish to:
- Define and sharpen a weak chin: Fillers can help redefine a receded or undersized chin, giving a more balanced profile and stronger jawline
- Correct asymmetries: If one side of the chin is droopier or less developed than the other, fillers can even them out and improve symmetry
- Counteract age-related volume loss: As we age, fat pads in the lower face start to shrink, making the chin appear thinner and less distinct. Fillers can help restore a more youthful contour
How Do Chin Fillers Work?
Chin fillers involve injecting dermal filler substances into the chin area. These fillers add volume and definition to the chin, resulting in a more projected shape.
Some fillers used in chin augmentation may include:
| Filler Type | Examples | Description | Duration |
| Hyaluronic acid fillers | Juvederm and Restylane | Made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin. | Temporary, lasting 6 to 12 months |
| Calcium hydroxylapatite fillers | Radiesse, Radiesse Plus | Contain microspheres of calcium hydroxylapatite, a mineral found in bone. | Semi-permanent, lasting 1 to 2 years |
| Poly-L-lactic acid | Sculptra | A poly-L-lactic acid filler that stimulates your body’s natural collagen production over time. | Semi-permanent |
| Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microspheres | Perlane, Artefill | Contain PMMA microspheres. | Considered permanent, non-absorbable |
Ethos Aesthetics + Wellness uses Hyaluronic acid and Poly-L-lactic acid fillers specifically Juvederm, Restylane, and Sculptra.
During the procedure, the filler is injected through a needle directly into the chin tissue which can smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. The filler substance raises the volume of the area above and around your cheekbones, providing the illusion of a more defined bone structure. It plumps up the thinnest areas for a more balanced contour.
Hyaluronic acid fillers attract water to maintain their volume. It integrates with your tissue, stimulating collagen production over time. This collagen production helps to contour and augment the shape of your chin from within, reducing the appearance of lines such as chin lines and nasolabial folds, and even smoothing out fine lines around the mouth, often referred to as smile lines or lipstick lines.
The duration of the swelling depends on the type of filler used, the amount injected, and the individual’s response to the treatment. Temporary fillers generally persist for 3-6 months, while permanent fillers may last significantly longer.
Benefits of Chin Filler Treatments
Chin fillers offer a multitude of benefits. These include:
- Improved Facial Harmony and Balance: A well-defined chin can balance out other facial features, making the whole face look more proportional and harmonious. Chin fillers can help achieve this and reduce the appearance of double chins.
- More Youthful Appearance: A thinner, less projected chin is a sign of facial volume loss due to aging. Chin fillers can restore a fuller, more youthful-looking contour.
- Enhanced Side Profile: Chin fillers can improve the side view of your face by adding definition, projection and a narrower appearance to your chin and jawline. This can make your profile look more aesthetically pleasing.
- Natural-Looking Results: When done skillfully by an experienced physician, chin fillers can provide subtle, natural-looking enhancements that do not appear overly done or fake.
- Minimal Downtime: Chin filler procedures typically require no incisions or stitches and involve minimal discomfort. Most patients can resume normal activities right after treatment with little downtime.
- Immediate to Quick Results: You will likely see an immediate improvement in your chin and jawline contour after the procedure. Final results become evident within a few days as any swelling and bruising subside.
- Reversible Procedure: Since fillers are absorbed by the body over time, the results of chin filler treatments are typically reversible. This means you can have adjustments or the treatment reversed if you change your mind later.

Our Approach to Chin Filler Treatments
Ethos Aesthetics + Wellness believes in a personalized approach to all our treatments. Our chin filler procedure involves:
- Consultation: You will meet with one of our doctors to discuss your treatment goals and options. Our doctor will examine your chin and determine the best filler type and amount.
- Anesthesia: A local numbing cream or inject a local anesthetic like lidocaine will be applied to minimize discomfort during the injections.
- Injection: Using a very thin needle, our doctor will inject the dermal filler into specific points of the chin. We will inject more filler to areas that need the most projection and fullness.
- Massage: The doctor will gently massage the filler substance into the treatment area to ensure it is evenly distributed. This helps the filler integrate smoothly with the tissue.
- Post Procedure Care: You will receive instructions on proper care of the treatment area, including avoiding strenuous activity, massaging as directed and taking any medications as needed.
- Results: Most patients see immediate improvement in chin and lower face contour. However, some swelling and bruising may occur initially. Final, settled results typically become evident after a few days.
- Follow Up: You will likely return for a follow up appointment so we can assess the results and make any needed adjustments. Additional treatments may be needed periodically to maintain benefits.
