3ml Chin Filler

$830
I initially had 2ml Juvaderm Ultra 4 Injected into my chin to add more projection. Although the 2ml did improve the asymmetry it did not add any projection. I then went back to dr quaba and he injected another syringe into the centre and and little on each side. He kindly
Did this for no extra charge and I just paid for the materials (£168 for the filler) . The projection is a lot better. The photos are from
Before, immediately after 2ml, and immediately after 3ml. I think next time I would go
For 4ml to get a bit more projection but I am
Happy at the moment with the results.

Day 13

Now at 13 days after filler treatment and not satisfied with the result. I’m not sure if there is still swelling or if the filler is in the wrong place. On the left side of my face I can feel the filler sitting above my jaw bone and it looks puffy....the right side of my face is fine and can feel the filler sitting right on my one as opposed to above like the left side. I have circled the area where is can feel the filler. I feel like the area on the right side of my face is in the correct position whereas it’s in the wrong area on my left side

Have you thought about doing Kybella? It looks to me (not trying to claim I'm an expert here) like if you lost some of the fat/loose skin that your chin would be more prominent. I too suffer from a weal chin!
I'll actually be having Lipo auction with the chin implant so that will solve that problem ;) the main purpose of having the chin filler was to "test" having a new projected chin. However it doesn't seem to have added projection, and at the moment I can see the filler sitting in weird places (see last picture) I will be going back soon to add more filler as I'd rather pay a bit more to see a better result than pay what I already have for no result
I just got a chin implant and I am loving it. They're relatively inexpensive and last way longer than fillers. Something to think about! But yes, also maybe lipo or coolsculpting for the fat, to help define better.
Yes the plan has always been to get an implant but wanted to test the chin first with fillers. The problem with the implant is that my chin is asymmetric so it will be difficult to get the chin looking good without a custom Implant and a custom implant it £10,000 :(
Ok I just read your first post about considering an implant but being hesitant due to asymmetry- however your pictures have been redacted so I cannot comment on the severity of it, I can tell you that nobody is 100% symmetrical. On that note, you could always get an implant and lipo, then get fillers put in the smaller side. It would require WAY less filler, ultimately (which gets expensive.)

I have gotten lip fillers one time and have since decided to get a lip lift because fillers don't last long enough for the price you pay. Plus I don't like the look of lip fillers, way too fake and obvious for my blood.
Hmm strange my pictures have been deactivated :/ not sure why'. Ah yes that could be an option. I'm going for more more filler next week as there wasn't any projection added with my first treatment so can chat further with the surgeon about the implant then. Just seen your chin implant review! You look great :)
The only thing I use filler for now is my jawline, only because my surgeon refuses to use mandibular implants due to potential nerve damage. I'm sure there are well versed surgeons out there in mandibular implants, and I will possibly seek that out in the future. But for now I use voluma in the angles of my jaw. Lasts 2 years, so it's actually worth it to me, lol. Anywhere else though just seems a waste of $$ (unless used for asymmetry, which is also in my jaw angles so it was a win win for me.)
Thank you so much! It was a huge improvement! I also have asymmetry due to scar tissue, however it doesn't bother me so I'm okay with one side of my chin larger. I just consider that my better side *insert eyeroll here* lmfao! As swelling subsides, I almost wonder if i shouldn't have gone with a medium implant. I think strong chins are beautiful.
Yeah I've loved the filler for fixing the assymetry as I really didn't have any chin on the right side but definately need more to add projection. My chin is VERY recessed. I think I would need a large implant! Hehe
I think you would look great with an implant! Please post if you do!!!! I'd love to see!!!!!!!

Some before and after pics. The results improved over the first few days and my jaw line seemed tighter. Now the swelling is starting to go down I don’t see much difference between before and after and the right side of my chin is longer than the left. This could be swelling sill though.
