Radiesse or Juvederm for chin augmentation?

Question

Which filler would you prefer to inject in the chin and why? Radiesse or Juvederm? Or even Aliaxin EV?

Janet Turkle, MD · Answer

There are many options for filling the chin area, not limtied to Juvederm and Radiesse. A consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who is an expert injector is the best option for you to determine which filler will be best for you.

Radiesse is a calcium based product that is thicker, comes in a syringe that has more volume and lifts well.  It does; however, last a shorter time than Juvederm.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

These fillers (voluma, restylane, juvederm), or Sculptra are good for augmenting the chin. Implants and fat are alternatives. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

Radiesse or Juvederm could both provide augmentation for the chin, but Radiesse is a stiffer product so I feel it can provide more projection over bony areas like the chin.  Because of this difference, I would recommend Radiesse over Juvederm for the chin.  I am not familiar with Aliaxin EV.

Thank you for your question! Both Radiesse and Juvederm have their benefits; and although these fillers have different compositions and consistencies, they can actually be used together to give great results. When treating the chin we often use them in combination. We place Radiesse deep, on top of the bone since it is a firmer, stronger filler. We then layer Juvederm Voluma more superficially to help push the skin outwards for further projection.
I've included a video that reviews using multiple fillers in one area, I hope you find this helpful in your research!

Thank you for your question. Both Radiesse and Juvederm can be used for chin augmentation. It’s
difficult to tell without photos.  I recommend getting a in person
consultation with a board-certified dermatologist.

Reza Tirgari, MD · Answer

We tend to prefer using a more solid filler that will last and provide good fullness in the chin area.  Radiesse is ok.  Voluma is a better option and we have used it extensively.
One other benefit of Voluma is that it can be reversed if you are unhappy or need any adjustments.

Dear kylie2333:Both Radiesse and Juvederm Voluma are excellent dermal fillers for augmenting the chin area.  Please see an expert injector for best results.  Best wishes.

Hi there, I would recommend Juvederm for chin augmentation. I have Juvederm Voluma in my own chin and am extremely happy with the results. If you do not like it you can get it dissolved with a product Hyelenex. Only seek the help of a board certificated dermatologist. Good luck, Dr. Downie

Onir Spiegel, DDS, PhD · Answer

Hi Kylie,
Both Juvederm and Rasiesse will get you good results.  Though you should know that these are very different products.   Rasiesse is essentially injections of calcium.   So you have a chance of developing calcium nodules.  It's also not so easily reversible after a week. Juvederm Ultra and Ultra plus may not last as long,  but it is reversible and more compatible with your body as these are injections of hyaluronic acid.   The cost may be different and since you probably won't need a full syringe you should inquest where else you can inject the rest of the martial.   That may help you decide on which product to use.   Best,  Dr. Onir
