Chin Enhancement & Augmentation
A weak, flat or recessed chin can subtly throw off facial harmony-sometimes making the jawline appear softer or the lower face less defined than you feel it should be.
We offer tailored, evidence-based treatments to enhance chin shape, restore balance, and refine your profile-all while respecting natural proportions and your individual anatomy.
Why Treat a Small or Flat Chin?
A small or retruded chin often:
Causes imbalance in the lower face and jawline
Reduces facial projection and definition
Can make the nose appear more prominent in profile
Leads to lack of aesthetic support for the lower face
Makes the face look rounder or less sculpted
By enhancing the chin, we aim to restore balance, create harmony between upper, middle and lower face, and subtly lift or project the lower facial third for a more refined and confident look.
Our Treatment Option
We view chin enhancement as part of a holistic facial aesthetic plan. The best option depends on your anatomy, skin quality, bone structure, and personal goals. Below are some of the treatments we may recommend:
Dermal Filler for Chin Projection & Contour
One of the most versatile and minimally invasive options is chin filler. High-quality hyaluronic acid (TeoxaneTM) filler can be placed to:
- Project the chin forward (improve retrusion)
- Add vertical height or length to the chin
- Define the chin’s outline and smooth transitions to the jawline
- Soften or reduce appearance of dimples, ridges or deep chin folds (mentalis crease)
Typical downtime is minimal, and results can last 12-18 months (or longer, depending on the product used).
What Happens During Consultation & Treatment
Comprehensive Assessment
We begin with a face, chin & jawline analysis. We look at bone structure, soft tissue volumes, skin laxity, proportions, and your goals.
Treatment Session
Most chin filler procedures take about 30 minutes, with careful injection technique for comfort and precision.
Aftercare & Healing
Mild swelling, bruising or tenderness is common for 1-7 days. We advise avoiding vigorous massage, excessive pressure, extremes of temperature or strenuous exercise in the immediate period.

Why might someone choose chin augmentation?
Chin augmentation can help to:
- Improve side-profile balance

What is TeoxaneTM RHA 4?
TeoxaneTM RHA 4 is a premium hyaluronic acid dermal filler specifically designed for areas requiring structure, projection, and support, such as the chin and jawline.
It is part of the Resilient Hyaluronic Acid (RHATM) range, which is formulated to move naturally with facial expressions while maintaining strength and longevity.
Why is TeoxaneTMRHA 4 used for the chin?
TeoxaneTM RHA 4 is ideal for chin augmentation because it:
- Provides excellent structural support and projection
- Maintains a natural look and feel
- Adapts to facial movement without appearing stiff
- Is long-lasting and highly stable
- Integrates smoothly into the tissue
This makes it particularly well-suited for enhancing the chin while preserving natural facial dynamics.
How is the treatment performed?
Following a detailed consultation and facial assessment:
- The chin area is cleaned and prepared
- TeoxaneTM RHA 4 is carefully injected using a needle or cannula
- The filler is precisely placed to enhance shape, projection, or symmetry
The procedure typically takes 20–30 minutes.
Is chin filler painful?
How much filler will I need?
The amount of filler required depends on your facial structure, goals, and desired level of enhancement.
Most patients require 1–2ml, though this will be discussed in detail during your consultation to ensure a tailored and natural result.
