Yes, with a strategic placement technique Sculptra can be used to enhance the chin and the side profile.
Sculptra can be used to augment the chin and enhance the profile. Treating the chin with Sculptra would normally require several treatment sessions spaced over time to provide gradual improvement. Depending on the amount of augmentation desired, sometimes Radiesse can work well or even a surgically placed chin implant.
Sculptra® and the hyaluronic acid fillers can be used to enhance the shape of the chin in virtually any way you desire. The important thing is that you seek treatment with an experienced boar-certified aesthetic dermatologist for a consultation.
Absolutely!! I have done it for a good many patients! It is fantastic for shaping faces into desirable ones, and done properly, the results last more than 7 years. Another injectable that works well to augment a chin is Radiesse.
Sculptra is not a good choice for chin augmentation, but it works great for butt augmentation - confusing, right?Let me explain why:Your face is a relatively small area, and you want to create very precise changes when balancing out features (which is normally the goal of chin augmentation). Sculptra spreads to the surrounding areas and creates a very diffuse effect - it's not going to augment one area without augmenting the areas around it, which is not what you're looking for.Most injectors use Voluma or Restylane Lyft for chin augmentation. These products are very, very similar. They're both hyaluronic acid gel fillers and last about 2 years. They're precise and placed deep - even as deep as directly on the bone - that's key in this high-movement area, as it means a natural-looking result even during movement. Sometimes Restylane Defyne or Radiesse may be used instead - depends on the individual patient and preference of physician.Hope this is helpful!
I prefer to use hyaluronic acid based fillers like Restylane Lyft when treating the chin. The filler will improve chin definition and projection.
The chin can be augmented with the use of Sculptra but the drawback of sculptra is that you don't see the results immediately but at approximately 6 to 8 weeks after the treatment. Most patients like to see the immediate results and for that reason other fillers should probably be used best. Good luck from New York City
