Chin enhancements encompass many concerns our patients have about the look of their chin.
Dermal fillers are used to add volume and prominence to small, and weak chins. This is an excellent alternative to invasive, expensive chin surgery.
We deliver chin-sculpting treatments with premium TGA-approved dermal fillers. This is a successful treatment for those with non-prominent or retracted chins, medically referred to as ‘retrognathia’.
Chin Augmentation with dermal filler is one of the MOST under-rated treatments in cosmetic medicine.
Chin filler can be used to treat a variety of concerns including:
You may have an under-projected chin that affects your side profile.
Perhaps you’d like a pointier, more feminine V-shape to your lower face.
Or you may wish to square-off and masculinise a weak or soft chin.
Whatever your desire, chin filler can help you achieve your ideal lower face aesthetic with no pain or downtime.
All consultations with our cosmetic practitioners are complimentary and obligation free. Consultation includes advanced facial assessment using Vectra 3D imaging technology, enabling you to view a visualisation of the anticipated treatment results before you proceed.
Chin augmentation requires the use of a thicker ‘bone-mimicking’ hyaluronic acid filler. Contour Clinics use only premium, TGA-approved fillers for all treatments.
When purchased in a package, the cost savings can total in the hundreds of dollars.
Often chin filler is combined with jawline filler for the perfect result.
Smooth a pebbled, dimpled chin with targeted anti-wrinkle injections into the chin mentalis muscles.
This also helps to smooth an overly contracted mental crease (the crease between your lower lip and chin).
All review appointments are complimentary and scheduled promptly.
Deciding who to trust with your face is not a decision to take lightly. You deserve professionals who have dedicated themselves to cosmetic medicine as their chosen profession. Get the very best in chin augmentation treatments with our specialist cosmetic injectors.
All treatments are backed by the Contour Clinics guarantee which includes:
For the ideal chin augmentation you may need 1-5ml depending on your baseline chin projection, and aesthetic goals.
The most we inject in 1 session is 2ml. Safe, considered injecting is the hallmark of the Contour Clinics guarantee. We believe anymore than 2ml at a time unnecessarily increases the risk of complications.
Ninety percent of our patients achieve the results they desire after 1 session.
We suggest returning at 1 month intervals for 1-2ml/session until your aesthetic goals are achieved.
The placement of chin filler depends on the goals of treatment.
Those desiring a pointier chin have their filler placed centrally to project and point the chin into a more feminine lower face contour.
Those wanting projection without pointing have an even spread around the chin to project from a side profile perspective evenly.
Those wanting to masculinise and square the lower face have targeted injections to shape and square the jawline.
Swelling and redness are not uncommon immediately after chin fillers. This will resolve in 1-3 days.
Some patients notice their chins are excessively pointy/sharp or projected. This is likely due to swelling and will resolve in 5-7 days.
No. The procedure has minimal discomfort and is well tolerated. Topical anaesthetic cream can be applied prior to the procedure if required.
We apply a strong numbing cream pre-treatment for 10-15 minutes.
Nitrous gas is available for use for all injectable procedures.
The dermal filler used for chin filler has a local anaesthetic contained within the product.
Ice is used to reduce pain and improve swelling/bruising post procedure.
Most patients see results out to 18 months. This will vary from patient-to-patient.
Often immediately after chin filler the area feels quite firm and tender secondary to swelling. This resolves in 1-2 weeks, whereby chin filler then feels similar to your normal chin tissues.
Chin filler may feel firm initially, however after 1-2 weeks it softens to feel exactly like your normal chin.
Chin augmentation with dermal fillers is a safe and well tolerated procedure. The most common side effects are:
These issues usually resolve in 1-4 days.
At Contour Clinics, we specialise in LED light therapy to help prevent bruising post treatment. We also have specialist lasers to treat post filler bruising, on the uncommon occasion it occurs. More serious side effects are rare and will be discussed with you prior to treatment.
All cosmetic procedures carry risk. However, the staff at Contour Clinics are among the most highly trained and sought after injectors in the country.
All of our dermal fillers used in chin augmentation are TGA and FDA approved for use in facial augmentation.
Chin filler can be tender post treatment. Take care not to put any pressure on the chin for several days post procedure. Other instructions include:
There are several scenarios that are considered unsuitable/unsafe for dermal filler treatments including:
Yes. In the event you are not happy with the look of your filler, or you experience a rare medical complication, chin filler can be reversed immediately and easily with an injection called hyalase.
This breaks down cross-links between hyaluronic acid molecules, to allow the body to metabolise them easily. Reversal occurs immediately.
Yes. As with most dermal fillers, there is mild swelling post procedure.
Often swelling is not noticeable to the naked eye, but can cause a tenderness and mild pain for 1-2 days.
Swelling typically resolves in 1-2 weeks.
There is a small chance of bruising post chin filler.
Bruising is typically mild and easily covered by makeup.

The chin is an important feature of the lower third of the face and by enhancing it, it can dramatically improve the aesthetic profile of a person. From sharpening the jawline, balancing proportions or reducing the appearance of excess skin and fat in the neck, Dr. Josh explains all the benefit's of having chin fillers.
With expertly placed dermal filler, those with a weak, retracted chin can project their ideal side profile. In this video, Dr Josh Wall explains what an underdeveloped chin is and why people may seek cosmetic treatments for it.
