Do you need a chin augmentation?

• June 7, 2020

No matter what we look like, a balanced facial profile is what makes us beautiful. What does it rely on? Two key features: your nose and chin. So if your chin is under-defined, your profile will look disproportionate, setting your entire facial profile out of harmony.

In many cases, people don’t realize it is the chin that’s the problem. Dr. Costi receives patients who think that their nose, lips or forehead are out of proportion, while the truth of the matter is that the disproportion is caused by a weak chin. And the best way to achieve a more balanced look is with a non-surgical chin augmentation, without any incisions, downtime or anesthesia.

What about your chin?

The chin is formed by protruding bone on the lower jaw. Scientists aren’t sure what purpose it serves exactly. However, we do know that it is an essential feature of our appearance. Situated right below your lips, your chin serves as part of the lower border of your face, defining your face from your neck. Aesthetically, a strong, broad chin is considered attractive in men. A more delicate, narrow chin is generally considered appealing in women.

With a chin augmentation you can redefine your chin contour to make it:

• project more
• broader in size
• rounder or more angular
• more prominent

So you could be a candidate for nonsurgical chin augmentation if you have one or more of the following concerns:

• A chin that is not proportionate to the rest of your facial features
• An asymmetrical chin that throws the facial contour off balance
• Lack of definition between the jawline and the neckline
• Dissatisfaction with your appearance due to your chin size
• A desire to change the facial contour but not yet ready for surgery

What is Nonsurgical Chin Augmentation?

The goal of a chin augmentation is to add definition to a lower face that is naturally lacking that desirable contour or has lost fullness as a result of the aging process.

Dr. Costi can achieve this in minutes with the use of hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers.

“Non-surgical chin jobs are growing in popularity because it is a customizable option and we have the ability to mold someone’s chin base off the rest of the features on their face” explains Dr. Costi. “Just look at the biggest movie stars and supermodels, they all have this characteristic. A person with a stronger chin is perceived as a stronger, smarter, and more of a go-getting type of person,” he continues.

Why non-surgical over surgical?

Non-surgical treatments are becoming increasingly preferred over surgical procedures for many reasons. The most popular being; reduced downtime, shorter appointment times, non-permanent results and the ability to add or amend the procedure during the appointment.

And since the results are so immediate, if you don’t like what you see, the fillers can be reversed on the spot with a protein enzyme called hyaluronidase.

So don’t wait any longer. With such a powerful result, we definitely advise you to get a chin augmentation. Let’s go!
