CHIN & JAWLINE ENHANCEMENT

Defining the face.

The chin and jaw are important aspects of the facial structure. We augment these areas differently for men and women to either feminise or masculinise the face.

To create a masculine appearance, we aim for jaws and chin to be wide, square, and sharp, whereas, for women, we aim for a softer appearance of these features with more of an oval shape to the face, with slightly less of a sharp angle to the jaw.

Augmenting the chin to create projection or length of the lower face can improve the side profile and harmonise the overall proportions of the face where needed.

Prices start from £350.

What Are Chin & Jawline Fillers?

Chin and jawline fillers are injectable dermal fillers used to enhance and reshape the lower face. These non-surgical treatments involve injecting Hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers (a gel-like substance) beneath the skin to add volume, create definition, and improve facial contours. Dermal fillers can help balance facial proportions and create a more harmonious profile.

Men and women have natural differences in facial structure that affect filler treatment approaches:

  • Men: Typically have stronger, more squared jawlines and more prominent chins

  • Women: Generally have softer, more tapered jawlines and slightly less projected chins

Treatment Goals

Treatment objectives often differ between genders:

For Men:

  • Creating or enhancing a strong, squared jawline

  • Emphasising the angular aspects of the lower face

  • Achieving a more defined chin with greater projection

  • Creating a more masculine appearance with sharper angles

  • Higher volumes of filler are typically used (4-10ml on average)

For Women:

  • Creating a more tapered, V-shaped jawline

  • Achieving a balanced chin without excessive projection

  • Maintaining softer contours while improving definition

  • Creating a heart-shaped or oval facial appearance

  • Lower volumes of filler are typically used (2-6ml on average)

FAQs

    1. Initial Consultation: The process begins with a thorough consultation with Dr Arun, who will assess your facial structure, skin condition, and discuss your aesthetic goals.

    2. Medical Assessment: Your medical history will be reviewed to ensure you're a suitable candidate. Dr Arun will check for allergies, previous reactions to fillers, and any contraindications.

    3. Treatment Planning: Based on your facial anatomy and desired results, Dr Arun will develop a tailored treatment plan.

    1. Cleansing: Dr Arun thoroughly cleanses the treatment area to remove any makeup, oils, or impurities.

    2. Topical Anaesthetic Application: A numbing cream is applied to minimise discomfort during the procedure. This typically requires 5 minutes to take effect.

    3. Treatment Mapping: Dr Arun then marks the areas to be injected, carefully planning placement for optimal results.

    4. Filler Injection: Using a fine needle or cannula, the dermal filler (hyaluronic acid-based) is precisely injected into predetermined areas of the lips.

    5. Massage and Molding: Dr Arun gently massages the product to ensure even distribution and proper contouring.

    6. Final Assessment: Both Dr Arun and the patient evaluate the immediate results, with potential touch-ups applied as needed.

    7. Post-Treatment Care Instructions: Dr Arun provides detailed aftercare guidelines to optimise healing and results.

  • Aftercare notes for Chin & Jawline Fillers:

    Needle entry points, redness, bruising, swelling and asymmetry around injection sites immediately after treatment is normal due to the very nature of the treatment.

    There may also be some tenderness present as the bruising and inflammation sets in. These symptoms will resolve over the next 2-7 days, depending on your individual response to the treatment. It may take a full 2-4 weeks for all swelling to settle; until this time we cannot re-treat.

  • This treatment typically lasts for approximately 12–24 months before requiring a top-up. The longevity of results varies based on several factors.

    • Treatment Area: Fillers in highly mobile areas such as lips tend to break down faster than less mobile areas

    • Metabolism: People with faster metabolisms may break down fillers more quickly

    • Lifestyle: Sun exposure, smoking, saunas and intense physical activity can reduce longevity

    • Injection Technique: The skill of the injector can impact how long results last

    • Type of Filler: dense fillers tend to last longer than soft fillers.

  • The ideal candidates for chin and jawline fillers include:

    • Individuals with a weak or recessed chin

    • People with undefined or poorly contoured jawlines

    • Those with mild to moderate jowling or sagging along the jawline

    • Individuals with facial asymmetry

    • People looking for non-surgical facial enhancement

  • No, this treatment is not permanent. We use hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, which are the safest because they are reversible. Therefore, the treatment can be reversed at any time if the client does not like the result or if there is a complication.

  • We use high-density Juvederm and Intraline range fillers to create a fantastic definition and shape of the chin and jaw. We use dense fillers as they can hold shape and structure well, which is required for this area of the face as we are recreating the structure of bone.

  • This treatment can be performed alongside many of our other treatments such as Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty for better profile balance, Cheek filler, Tear Trough filler, or Nasolabial & Marionette line filler in our 8-point facelift.

    Combining these treatments can dramatically improve your entire facial appearance, creating a more youthful and lifted look.

  • Absolutely.

    People can form jowls due to bone and fat loss from the back of the jaw, which causes the skin to droop forward, resulting in jowl formation.

    We can treat the jowl area directly and indirectly with fillers. By injecting the jowl region directly, we can reduce the indentation caused by the jowl. Treating the jaw and replacing the lost volume can create a slight pulling effect, further minimising jowls.

  • Volumes can vary widely between different clients and the desired outcome. To improve the chin, we may use 1-2ml. For jawline enhancement, this can require between 2-6ml depending on a number of factors which can be explored during consultation.
