Any Negatives to Using Radiesse or Restylane for Chin Augmentation?

I know it doesn't last as long, but is chin augmentation using Radiesse or Restylane less effective or not as natural as a surgical implant?

Thank you for sharing your photos and providing some background. It's clear you've put thought into what you're seeing, and that's a great starting point. Looking at your profile, I don't think the issue is that one feature needs to be "fixed." Instead, it's more about the overall balance...
