How much chin improvement is realistic for fillers? i.e. How many mm/cm of projection or width is realistic?

calaterium
If a thick filler is placed into the chin, what sort of limitations does it have before a chin implant is required? If I wanted say 1-1.3 cm of extra frontal projection and 0.5cm widening either side, does this sort of sculpting work with fillers? Also, if this is achievable, what disadvantages does it have? Does the chin resemble fat rather than bone? would the filler in the chin droop?
