What can I do about the hollowing on both sides of my chin? (Phtoo)

Question

I have thought about fillers but could an implant possibly fix it? What would be best? I've lost weight on my face and that's the first place I lose it funny enough. it creates a very an annoying outline of my face. And I absolutely hate it. What can I do about it?

Yes, the chin can be improved with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra. This will allow you to try on the look before committing to a permanent option like fat or implants. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

You have a few options to improve your chin. If you’re not sure you’re ready for surgery, but still want to improve and strengthen your chin and profile, I’d suggest augmenting your chin with Sculptra and/or Voluma. If you like your new look, you can make it permanent with a chin implant. I hope that helps

Implants can be fashioned to fill in the hollows on the side of your chin for a permanent augmentation effect.

Hi, I have performed many facial shaping procedures using dermal fillers, silastic facial implants (cheek, chin, lips), liposuction and/or facelifts for over 30 years.  It doesn't appear from the front photo that your chin is weak (can be confirmed with a side photo) so a chin implant wouldn't be required.  The "most" accurate method of shaping the sides of the chin would be precise placement of an HA dermal filler.  I prefer using Restylane Lyft. You may also consider shaping the front of your cheeks, which are a bit flat (more so on the left) with the same dermal filler.  Following my beauty principles, women look the most feminine, youthful and attractive with heart shaped faces.  Heart shaped faces have cheeks that are full and round in the front.  When the cheeks are concave or flat in the front, cheek augmentation with a dermal filler or using cheek implants for a permanent enhancement will create full, round cheeks that will feminize the entire face.  This would feminize and soften the face making the indentations on the sides of the chin less noticeable.Hope this helps.
