Chin enhancement

Chin correction

Fillers for lifting a regressed or underdeveloped chin.

We can enhance your chin with injectables or with your own fat: a few injections with a filler are often sufficient to achieve the desired result. We often also add some volume to the jawline and cheekbones which creates more youthful curves. An oddly-shaped nose can also be visibly improved.

The aim of chin enhancing treatment is to make the nose and chin look in proportion.

Often a small correction of just a few millimeters is enough to achieve the desired results. 

Chin Enhancement: Injectable Fillers

 A slightly regressed or underdeveloped chin can be easily lifted using an injectable filler. We distinguish between the two types of fillers:

1. biodegradable fillers

2. non-biodegradable fillers

Biodegradable fillers are broken down by the body over time which means that their effect slowly disappears. The best known injectables used to enhance the chin are based on hyaluronic acid. 

The advantage of biodegradable fillers is that the result lasts for up to two years, the treatment can then be repeated.

The new generation of injectables are also used for facial rejuvenation and to fill wrinkles:
Liquid facelift technique.

The advantage of non-biodegradable fillers is that you just need one single treatment, with a possible touch up. The result is permanent.

Bio-Alcamid is the best non-biodegradable filler. The injectable forms a soft implant under the skin. Over time Bio-Alcamid can start to sag or shift, which makes the skin feel lumpy and the filler no longer sits in its original position. You need to take this into account. If necessary the Bio-Alcamid implant can be easily removed.

Chin Enhancement: Injections of the patient's own fat

Lipofilling, lipostructure - also called fat transfer or fat transplantation - is a very successful treatment for enlarging an undersized chin or softening a chin which is too pointed. We use excess fat from the stomach or the hips to give extra shape and volume to your chin.

Lipostructure is an improved lipofilling technique. Lipostructure (improved Coleman lipofilling method) is intensively used all over the world to improve the shape and proportions of the face.

The results of lipostructure are more predictable than lipofilling. The results of the treatment are also permanent.

Chin Enhancement: Implant - Prosthesis

Chin and jaw prostheses: By inserting a chin or jaw implant the profile of your face can look more balanced: the proportion between the nose, chin and jaw is improved. Read more.

Lipolysis: Double chin

Lipolysis: lipo (=fat) lysis (=dissolve) is a treatment of PPT injections to remove small fatty deposits under the chin. The treatment has a localised effect and lasts about 15 to 30 minutes. Repeat treatments are usually necessary to achieve the desired results.

Lipolysis injections are generally used to firm:

• under the chin
• neck and jawline

Liposculpture - Neck lift: Double chin

 The skin at the neck can become slack and start to sag. Fat can collect there which means that the jawline is less firm.

A double chin is usually the result of:

• fat deposits
• excess, sagging skin
• slack muscles at the base of the mouth and/or neck

Fortunately there is a tailor-made solution to every problem:

• Liposculpture of the neck: Liposuction of the fat in the neck and under the chin.
• Neck Lift: SMAS correction + lifting + removal of excess skin.
• Correction of the neck muscles = Platsymaplasty.

The results for neck correction and liposculpture of the neck are permanent.

Chin reduction: Bone-sculpture

Bone-sculpture for the chin is a plastic surgical technique to reshape the chin's existing bone structure.

A small change of just a few millimeters can result in a significant visible improvement.
