Tags: jaw line, definition, options, overbite
I have an overbite and a square jaw which leaves me with no definition in the chin area. There are 2 areas under my bottom lip on both sides that is a bit hollow. It shows up in every photo and I hate it! Is filler a good option for this area? How much will it take and which filler is recommended? I have posted a pic, because it's so hard to explain!

Artefill or Radiesse does great in the oral commissures and marionette grooves.
Using a temporary 1 yr filler such as Radiesse or Artefill which lasts 4-5 yrs are both good choices. Juvederm, Restylane, Perlane are also good choices which last about 6 months. Do expect to get at least 2 syringes of the filler to correct the area nicely. Sincerely,

I assume what is bothering you is the lower outer edges of the labiomental groove. Usually this is related to a receded lower jaw and/or chin. That could explain the overbite you describe. There are a few options available to address this depending on how severe the condition is, how aggressive you want to be in changing it...
