Can chin filler cause muscle issues?

Question

Before I get chin filler I wanted to make sure it doesn't impact on the function of the mentalis muscle. Is this a possibility?

Ryan Rebowe, MD · Answer

Any medical treatment can cause unforeseen outcomes of varying types. Thankfully, this particular issue is highly uncommon in chin filler as the hyaluronic acid typically utilized is a substance made naturally by your body and should not affect muscle function. Similarly, it would be highly unlikely that the injecting needle or cannula could have any effect on muscle function. While it is not impossible, it would be a very unusual side effect.

Hi dear actually botox is effecting the muscle not filler, filler just fill the erea that doctor offer to fill and you do it

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.
