A chin filler improves the shape and projection of the chin, creating a more balanced and harmonious facial profile.

A chin filler is a treatment that uses hyaluronic acid filler to give the chin more definition, projection, or symmetry. An under-projected or irregular chin can affect the balance of the face. With a filler treatment, the chin is subtly corrected, which can have a positive effect on the overall facial profile. This treatment is often combined with lip fillers to achieve a harmonious and natural result. The filler is always tailored to the facial structure and desired appearance.
The treatment begins with a personal consultation in which the chin and facial proportions are analyzed. Then the filler is injected with a fine needle or cannula at the correct depth. The filler provides structure and support to the chin, thereby improving the profile and facial balance. The treatment is controlled and is generally experienced as comfortable.
The chin filler is suitable for adults who:
The treatment is never performed during pregnancy or breastfeeding. It is less suitable for people with certain medical conditions. In these cases, prior medical advice is recommended.
The recovery time is usually limited. Mild swelling, redness, or bruising may occur, but typically disappear within a few days. Daily activities can usually be resumed immediately.
The effect of a chin filler lasts on average 12 to 18 months. Maintenance treatments can extend the result.

At Dr T., comfort and precision are central. The treatment starts with a consultation in which your wishes and the possibilities are discussed honestly. We analyze your facial profile, skin structure, and any asymmetries to create a tailor-made treatment plan.
After disinfection, the area can be made more comfortable with dental anesthesia. The filler is introduced with a very fine needle or cannula in small quantities. We build the volume layer by layer and check the result in the mirror in between. The procedure takes 30 to 45 minutes.
You will receive clear instructions: do not massage, do not do heavy sports, and keep your head upright for the first few hours. Minor swelling or redness quickly subsides. We always schedule a follow-up check to evaluate the result and make subtle adjustments if necessary. Your peace of mind is our priority.
A chin filler is suitable for those who want to improve an unsatisfactory profile, a receding chin, or slight asymmetry without surgery. It can also be part of overall facial rejuvenation, as a retracted chin can make the neck and lower jaw look older.
Women often choose a soft, elegant projection that makes the face more feminine. For men, we accentuate the width and height of the chin for a more assertive appearance. Dr T. always ensures that the result remains in harmony with the entire face: natural and never exaggerated.
In case of severe retrognathia (retrognathia) of the lower jaw, a surgical solution via the oral and maxillofacial surgeon may be indicated. During the intake, we together assess whether a filler realistically meets your expectations, or whether we advise a better alternative.
A chin filler rarely stands alone. By combining it with other treatments, you can achieve a more natural and long-lasting effect. Dr T. is happy to think along with you about a total plan.
By extending the chin filler along the jawline, you create a tighter, more defined oval or angular face without it looking artificial. This technique works particularly well with the gradual volume loss that comes over the years.
An overactive mentalis muscle can cause a 'peau d'orange' effect on the chin. A minimal amount of botulinum toxin in the chin muscle relaxes the skin texture, so that the filler comes into its own optimally and the result looks smoother.
Your questions for Dr T.
After the treatment, the skin around the chin may be somewhat sensitive or slightly swollen. This is completely normal and usually subsides within 24 to 48 hours. In most cases, you can resume your daily activities the same day. For an optimal result, Dr T. provides you with personal aftercare instructions. For the first few hours, it is best to avoid pressure on the treated area and preferably sleep on your back the first night. Intense sports activities and heat sources such as sauna or tanning bed are discouraged for two weeks to allow the hyaluronic acid to settle quietly. Do you notice a firmer spot a few days after the treatment? No worries, with gentle massage, as your doctor demonstrated, the product is evenly distributed and the result quickly feels more natural.
