What is the best hyaluronic acid filler for chin augmentation?

Dear browneyedThank you for your question!  There are several fillers that work well for chin contouring- The filler that has been on the market the longest in Europe and Canada is Perlane, and the slightly smaller particle - Restylane.  Both with give results that last up to a year or more and are very safe. Radiesse is also a good filler for this area.  Sculptra does have a small risk of bumps due to the proximity of the muscles around the mouth.With Warm RegardsTrevor M Born MD

Previously, I used Radiesse to perform all injectable chin augmentation procedures. Recently, I've switched to Voluma which is a hyaluronic acid based filler. I think Voluma provides a reasonable amount of augmentation but is also moldable and reversible if needed. Chin injections are an off label area to inject as Dr. Echavez pointed out but safe in the hands of an experienced physician injector. One point to consider is that implants come in very small sizes that provide very conservative chin augmentation. Over time, fillers will cost you more and there is a slight amount of variability from injection to injection. For these reasons, I will typically only use fillers for people who want to simulate what an implant would look like prior to undergoing the actual procedure. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

If you were going to use a filler to augment the chin, I normally would recommend Radiesse (which is not a hyaluronic acid filler), because it is a bit firmer than the hyaluronic acid fillers and usually can provide more projection.  If you wanted to stick with the hyaluronic acid fillers, I think Voluma would be a good option although it would be considered an off-label use in treating the chin.
