What would help shape my chin? (Photo)

Question

I have always had what others call a “bubble” on my chin. Rosacea makes it more prominent but what bothers me most is how it isn’t symmetrical and it come to almost a point on one side. It’s most noticeable when I smile and makes me very self conscious. What procedure might give me a smoother more symmetrical appearance for my chin?

For a more defined jawline to strengthen your profile (and help prevent the dreaded jawline "jowl" sagging), we use injectable fillers like Revanesse Versa - a filler known to limit swelling and give subtle, soft enhancements - or Radiesse. Using a cannula to limit pain and swelling, we inject on the bone in strategic points to get more lift and shaping, resulting in a more contoured lower face and defined, structured jawline. I would suggest getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Hi there! A couple different modalities might be helpful in your case: 1. Neuromodulator (like Botox or Dysport) to relax the chin muscle and slightly elongate the chin and the horizontal crease. 2. Dermal filler to improve symmetry and smooth out the jawline on the sides of your chin. 3. BBL (broad band light) or other photofacial treatment to address redness and texture.
