Chin augmentation using dermal fillers is a popular cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the facial structure and achieve a more balanced aesthetic appearance. As a minimally invasive alternative to surgical chin augmentation, Chin Fillers offer a quick and effective way to transform the chin area, improving the overall harmony of facial features.
The chin is an important part of the facial structure and can determine the overall appearance of the face. Micrognathia is the underdevelopment of the mandible, resulting in a receded chin. There are varying degrees of micrognathia, and minor chin recession can be managed with non-surgical options such as Chin Fillers.
Chin Fillers are injectable treatments that add volume and definition to the chin. By using hyaluronic acid-based fillers or other biocompatible materials, this procedure can extend the chin, correct asymmetries, and enhance the jawline. Ideal for individuals seeking aesthetic improvement without the downtime of surgery, Chin Fillers are tailored to meet the unique facial contours and aesthetic goals of each patient. The most common Chin Fillers include Juvederm Voluma, Restylane, or Maili. The dermal filler products for the chin often need to be thicker since they need to project more.
The first step in the Chin Filler process is a consultation with our expert doctors or nurses at CLNQ. During this session, the practitioner will assess your facial structure, discuss your aesthetic goals, and recommend the best type of filler and treatment plan.
The actual procedure is relatively quick, typically taking 15 to 30 minutes. The area around the chin is first cleaned, and a topical anaesthetic may be applied to minimise discomfort and often this is already in the filler being used. The filler is then carefully injected into specific areas of the chin using a fine needle or cannula, depending on the desired outcome. You will see immediate results following the injection.
Post-procedure, patients may experience mild swelling or bruising, which typically subsides within a few days. It is advised to avoid strenuous exercise and exposure to extreme heat or cold immediately following the treatment.
The most common type of filler used for chin augmentation is based on hyaluronic acid (HA), such as brands like Juvederm, Restylane, and Teosyal. These fillers are favoured for their safety profile and reversibility. The other options include calcium hydroxylapatite (Radiesse), which can stimulate natural collagen production, offering longer-lasting results.
The cost of Chin Fillers can vary depending on the product used, expertise, and the amount of filler used. The price for Chin Fillers at CLNQ starts from £300 with our doctors.
While Chin Fillers are generally safe, they are not without risks. Potential complications include:
The longevity of Chin Fillers depends on the type of filler used and the individual’s metabolism. Typically, hyaluronic acid fillers last between 6 to 12 months, while other types, like Radiesse, can last up to 18 months or longer. Periodic maintenance treatments are necessary to preserve the desired effect.
Chin Fillers are an excellent option for those looking to enhance their facial profile without the commitment or downtime of surgery. By choosing an expert doctor or nurse and understanding the nature of the procedure, potential risks, and care required post-treatment, patients can achieve natural-looking, long-lasting results.

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure due to the use of local anaesthetics that are present in the filler.
When administered by an experienced doctor or nurse, Chin Fillers can provide very natural-looking results that enhance the existing facial features. They will be familiar with the facial anatomy and proportions.
Hyaluronic acid-based fillers can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase or hyalase, making it possible to reverse the effects if desired.
While immediate improvements are visible, the final results can be seen once any swelling and bruising have subsided, usually within a week or two.
