I don’t even know how to describe my chin? Is it protruding or just round? Is Botox something I can do to my chin to help balance my face?
Answer: Balanced chin A formal evaluation would be needed to determine what's best. Many of my patients try to avoid surgery, so we perform a non-surgical chin augmentation treatment with injectable fillers. Fillers like Radiesse, Voluma, BellaFill as well as Sculptra are injected into the area, improving the overall appearance of the lower face and balancing the jaw and lip harmony. We use cannula injections to meticulously contour and project the chin, soften the chin along the jawline and improve the chin crease. I suggest getting a consultation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert; our practice is located right here in Los Angeles. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Chin Botox to the chin does not help with shape or projection. It is used to help those with the "orange peel" texture when the chin muscle is activated. Fillers are a better option for sculpting the chin and jawline.

Answer: Protruding chin A profile photo is needed to give better recommendations. If you feel that your chin is somewhat large or protruding, there are several options to achieve a small chin.

Answer: Chin It's a little difficult to give specific recommendations for your chin without more pictures and an in-person physical examination. Botox/neurotoxins wouldn't do much for this situation. Given that you are concerned with it being protruded or rounded, I'd be hesitant to recommend fillers unless your side profile appears retruded/set back. Fillers along the jowl region would square off the jaw, taking away some of the rounded appearance, but masculinizing the appearance which may not be desirable. If you have a lot of bony excess, a surgical procedure to shave off some of that may be warranted. If there are other skeletal or dental issues, you may require the assistance of a maxillofacial surgeon to avoid issues with dentition when undergoing a setback of the jaw.

Answer: Chin Hi! I would consider trying some botox to your chin/mentalis muscle to see if that helps you achieve what you are looking for. It is hard to give a full assessment without side photos or dynamic photos and also not knowing exactly what you are bothered by but since botox is temporary, you could always try it out.
