About Chin Augmentation Fillers.

Read more about Chin Augmentation Fillers Treatment details and clinical context

Chin Filler also known as a non-surgical Chin Augmentation is when dermal filler is strategically placed within the chin area in order to provide changes to the size and shape of the chin enhancing the overall appearance of the chin area. Chin filler can be used to harmonise and balance the size of your chin in comparison to other facial structures such as the forehead, nose and lips. Dermal fillers in the chin area are beneficial for chins that are smaller, have bumps or dimples and are out of proportion to other facial structures thus enhancing the appearance of the lower facial area, additionally, it can be used to lengthen, narrow or correct chin protrusions.

At Dr Sknn, Chin Augmentation is only performed by Dr Shaffu who uses his professional knowledge and precise technique to deliver safe and effective results. Prior to performing the procedure, a full aesthetic consultation is performed to analyse other facial structures to provide an aesthetically pleasing profile harmonization in relation to other structures.

Chin augmentation work well in conjunction with other dermal fillers such as jawline filler to create an even more symmetrical balanced profile.

A consultation may conclude that a different treatment—or no treatment—is the safest and most appropriate recommendation.
