I'm meaning to get a chin filler in the next few months, and i was just wondering if it is absolutely necessary for a local anesthetic to be used for a chin filler procedure? I would prefer not to have a local anesthetic, but if the pain is really unbearable i guess it is something i will accept. Thanks in advance for your input.

Answer: Chin Filler My patients typically feel little to no pain with filler injections. I add anesthetic to the filler itself and use icing. If a patient really is nervous we will put a topical anesthetic on a little bit before injection. Most of my patients find the procedure to be very comfortable and they are instantly happy with the results. I do not feel a nerve block is needed and sometimes it can make the area change prior to filler injection and make more complications than improvements. Come in for a consultation. Best, Dr. Emer.
