Chin augmentation is a non-surgical procedure using dermal fillers (such as hyaluronic acid or Radiesse) to enhance the shape, projection, and definition of the chin. It offers a subtle improvement in facial symmetry and profile without the risks, downtime, or permanence of surgery

Good candidates are adults looking to improve chin definition, whether the chin has diminished with age, is asymmetrical, or simply lacks projection. During a consultation, Dr. Aguilar evaluates facial proportions, skin quality, and bone structure to determine suitability

The treatment usually takes about 30 minutes, including numbing of the chin area, placement of filler, and adjustment to achieve a balanced result

If you would like your jawline to look better defined or strengthen a weak chin, non-surgical chin augmentation using dermal fillers may give you the best results. Chin augmentation can change the contours of your chin through the injection of dermal fillers. This fillers add volume under the skin making the chin appear more prominent or increase its definition.

Candidates for chin augmentation treatments are adults who want to change the contours of their chins. Whether your chin has become less prominent as a result of ageing or weight fluctuations or has asymmetries you would like to correct. It’s important to understand that the results we can achieve with non-surgical chin augmentation may not be as drastic as with a surgical intervention such as a chin implant. On the other side, this treatment is temporary, carries low risks, and requires minimal downtime.

Some patients undergo this treatment as a way to “try out” the potential results of surgical chin augmentation without having to commit to surgery.

Yes. Dr. Aguilar aims for a refined enhancement by improving projection and contour while preserving harmony with the rest of the face. The goal is a natural, balanced profile rather than an exaggerated change.

Discomfort is minimal. Numbing cream can be applied to the chin before injections, which helps minimise sensitivity. Most patients describe only mild prickling or pressure during the procedure.

You may notice some swelling, redness or slight bruising around the injection sites. These are temporary and generally settle within a few days. Most patients can return to daily activities immediately.

Results are visible immediately. As swelling decreases and the filler settles, the final shape becomes more refined over the following days.

For fillers like hyaluronic acid or Radiesse used in chin augmentation, results typically persist for around 8 months, depending on individual metabolism, the product used, and amount of movement in the area. We recommend repeating the treatment every 6-8 months to maintain results.

Common side effects include temporary swelling, redness, bruising or tenderness. More significant complications are rare when the procedure is performed by a qualified medical professional. Dr. Aguilar uses FDA- and UK-approved fillers to maintain safety and quality.

Yes, it can be combined with other enhancements such as dermal fillers in surrounding areas, anti-wrinkle injections, or PDO threads to achieve a harmonious, full-face result. Dr. Aguilar will discuss the best combinations during your consultation.
