Chin filler
Dermal fillers are hyaluronic-acid based compounds that are used to add volume to different areas of the face. Dermal fillers are available in different densities (thicknesses) that allow the replication of different tissue types.
​
Thick filler can be used to replicate bone in areas such as the chin, cheekbones and jawline. In the chin, filler can be used in a multitude of ways, depending on the desired result. In men it can be used to create a wider, more square, masculine chin and in women to create a more rounded, narrower chin. It can be used to elongate the face if necessary. Often used in combination with jawline filler for optimal results.

Dr Horlick uses a range of advanced techniques to achieve the optimal result for her patients.

The process
Before treatment
At your consultation your goals will be discussed and your facial structure assessed. Dr Horlick will recommend a treatment plan based on these, possibly including combination treatments such as jawline filler. A consent form will be completed and before photos taken. You will now be ready for your treatment.
During treatment
Your face will be cleaned and local anaesthetic cream applied. Once the numbing cream has taken effect, your treatment will commence. Dr Horlick may use a combination of needle and cannula (hollow tube) to distribute the product.
After treatment
After photographs will be taken. You will be advised of the aftercare instructions and provided with a leaflet detailing them. A follow-up appointment is not required. The consultation and treatment time is around 45 minutes.
Results
You can expect to see your results immediately, although they will continue to develop for up to 2 weeks as the filler attracts water. Expect to see your healed results at 2 weeks. Results last 9-12 months, depending on a variety of individual and lifestyle factors.
