The chin has a major role in facial harmony, from the front or a side view angle. Hyaluronic acid injections are commonly used to correct a lack of volume, a receding chin or a lack of projection. Here is how it works.
What hyaluronic acid can do for the chin
An over projected or receding chin can create unbalance in the whole face. With age, the appearance of the chin changes : it crumples and it can even end up with an orange peel appearance. Hyaluronic acid, or HA, is a biodegradable molecule that is naturally occurring in the skin. It has the capacity to retain water and maintain skin hydration, which makes it an invaluable tool in the field of aesthetic medicine. HA is the main filler product used by facial rejuvenation specialists at the moment. While HA can fill in wrinkles and hydrate the skin surface, it can also increase volume in certain areas such as the chin. Non-invasive chin augmentation, also called medical genioplasty, aims at restoring facial harmony by hiding imbalances. If you are interested in correcting imperfections in your chin, get in touch with one of the best cosmetic surgeons by contacting Dr.Balti.
Chin imperfections and defects corrected by HA injections
HA injections are used in many different cases :
- When the chin lacks definition or projection (receding or weak chin). Deep injections, close to the bone, provide significant projection whereas slight projections can be achieved with subcutaneous injections.
- When the chin has an orange peel appearance.
- When the submental dimple and fold need to be alleviated.
- When the chin needs a more squared shape to have a more masculine appearance.
- When the chin needs a more triangular shape to have a more feminine appearance.
HA injections in the chin provide immediate results lasting between 1 to 2 years. Facial harmony can be restored this way, with a more balanced shape. The treatment can also alleviate folds in the corners of the mouth and tone up the whole face with a slightly increased tension.
