For an aesthetic face shape, it is important that the chin looks strong and flawless. Our jaw shape largely determines our face shape and the characteristic structure of our expression. When there is protrusion or disproportion in the jaw, the person’s expression may appear harsher. Chin filling applications for a soft expression and a proportional face shape are now completed without surgery and pain. In our article, we will include information about chin filling, which is one of the most preferred aesthetic operations. If you want to have a chin filler, you can call our clinic to get more detailed information.

What is the Ideal Jaw Shape?

In today’s perception of beauty, face shapes with a slim structure and soft lines are considered aesthetic. The chin structure extending downwards in a V shape from the nose level is considered the ideal chin structure. Of course, the protrusion of the patient’s cheekbones, the shape of the forehead and lips are also taken into account. Additional fillers and botox applications may be needed to achieve the ideal V appearance.

What are the Common Jaw Deformities?

The chin being larger or smaller than it should be, the jaw line being unclear, sagging under the chin called jowls, and asymmetrical chin structure are among the most common jaw deformities we encounter. At the same time, dimple-like depressions at the tip of the chin are considered among the deformities that spoil the aesthetic appearance of the chin.

A clear chin line, sharp lines and soft lines evoke youth. Since it adds a softer appearance to the face, it enables the person to communicate more easily in social life. Chin filling, which is especially preferred by women, is one of the operations that helps the person feel better when looking in the mirror and increases self-confidence.

What Substances Are Used in Chin Fillers?

Today, the most preferred and most effective substance in filler applications is hyaluronic acid. Since this substance is found in the natural tissue of the skin, it is the filling material with the lowest risk of allergy. In addition, it is our first choice in filling applications because it provides a more natural appearance. Apart from this, there are different materials that can be chosen for chin filling according to the patient’s skin type and needs. Fat cells taken from the patient’s own body, calcium hydroxyapatite, and polycaprolactone, also known as PCL, are other materials used in chin filling.

Is Chin Filling Harmful?

One of the most curious questions about filler and botox applications is whether the application is safe or not. Since chin filler is made with skin-compatible substances, the possibility of reaction is very low. It does not pose any risk if applied in the right amount and correctly. In this way, many of our patients who have chin fillers constantly renew the application and achieve the desired chin appearance painlessly within minutes. However, in practice, it is very important to determine the correct dose and inject it correctly. Since chin filler is applied to bone instead of tissue, injection is made in deeper areas. For this reason, the filling procedure must be performed by a specialist and experienced physician.

Is Chin Filling Permanent?

Chin filler application is completed in approximately 15 minutes. Since it is performed by injection, there is no surgical scar left. The patient can continue his daily life as soon as the application is completed. However, chin filler, like all other filler types, is a temporary application. For chin aesthetics to be permanent, it must be repeated regularly. This period may be longer or shorter depending on the patient’s genetic structure, skin characteristics and frequency of facial expression use. Chin fillers generally show their effects within 1.5 – 2.5 years. There is no harm in repeating the application after this period is completed.
