Can filler create a cleft chin and which is best?

Question

Hello! I used to have a little line/dimple on my chin (like a subtle cleft/butt chin) which I loved. As I've got older it seems to have disappeared (sometimes there is a slight shadow but rarely) and I'd really like it back. Is it possible to create with some filler? If so, is there one which is best and any tips on how to achieve it naturally? Thank you!

From your description, it is very likely that normal chin bone and muscle recession with age is responsible for the loss of your dimpled, so-called "butt chin."  Fortunately, we have a number of volumizing fillers available that can be used restore chin projection and re-create the center cleft. In my NY office I typically use Voluma XC for this purpose, while in my Israel satellite facility, where a far greater number of regulatory agency approved injectable volumizing fillers are available, I generally use Restylane Volyme for this purpose. This region is for advanced, experienced injectors, not an area for novice or medspa injectors accustomed to injecting simple Juvederm or ordinary Restylane into smile lines. Make sure that you consult with a board certified aesthetic physician. Best of luck.

You're correct in the fact that in the majority of individuals the chin recedes with age. You can easily have that corrected with two methods. One is with the use of your own fat which can be injected and the second method is using fillers. There is a multitude of great fillers that are available for such an issue any any one of them will be good for you as long as you're being treated by an experience plastic surgeon. Good luck from New York City
