I have a square face so my jaw line is strong, however, i have a weak chin. I am getting a dermal filler injected into my chin and some BOTOX to relax my chin muscles. I am worried that if i get a chin filler that my jaw line wont be as strong. Is this going to happen?

Answer: Filler into the Chin and Jaw -- Cannulas with Radiesse, Perlane, or Voulma
There is a lot that can be done to give you a more masculine face and improved jaw/chin. I suggest a formal consultation with a facial contouring specialist who is an expert at filler injections and uses cannulas to prevent bruising and swelling. Best, Dr. Emer.
Thank you for your question. It's hard to tell from your photo. However, there is always a chance of bruising and minor swelling with any type of filler. This usually dissipates after a couple of weeks. We wish you the best!
You can either remove your existing chin implant and replace with a larger one, or put a filler overtop of the implant. The filler will likely last approximately 1 year in this location, sometimes longer.
