CHIN AND JAWLINE
Cosmetic Options
General information — it’s intended to help you think of questions before your consultation or revisit details afterward
Chin and jawline definition depends on underlying anatomy. Cosmetic doctor is using a wide range of assessment tools (like Ultrasound, Skin analysis) and will explain options for individual case with pros and cons, risks, your particular anatomy and alternatives.
Cosmetic treatments may include dermal fillers, cannulas (for volume restoration), subcision (release of fibrotic tissues gluing skin in deeper levels), thread lifts (to reposition excess tissues to more uplifted position), anti wrinkle injections (if overactive muscles like massetres, platisma, mentalis), fat dissolving injections (if excess local fat pads are present), but more options available.
Please, book consultation via the website or phone for our experienced cosmetic doctor to assess your individual situation and discuss the best options. Below are examples of cases achieved at our clinic only for general idea of possibility.
Case above: Full face lifting and harmonisation

2. Fillers over few times in lifting points, face deficiencies restoration.
3. Muscle relaxant injections
4. Threadlifts

Case above: lower face definition and lifting
1. Skin quality (home skincare Vista, MAMI)
2. Fat dissolve injections lower face
3. Threaflift and filler

Chin Scars Correction
In case of cosmetic scars concerns, options depends on how deep is the scar and how much other tissues are involved.
To name the few non-surgical chin correction options, are subcision (or separation), commonly combined with a dermal filler augmentation to fill in relased anatomical spaces and to create shape of the area.
Muscle relaxant injections can be used at the time. Generally, less movement in the healing area are associated with less scars formation.
In this case, the patient had traumatic deformation of the chin, causing significant changes, we may refer to surgical correction.
The patient had no downtime, despite the bruising caused by the French subcision technique (bruising is a common complication of the procedure, but such controlled trauma actually is good as release growth factors and enhance regeneration). Such bruising can be covered with make up .
Combination of dermal filler containing hyaluronic acid (natural moisuriser) and the scar release by subcision – 3 procedures (most cases are recommended).
Chin Volume augmentation
If concern is to improve small chin or to improve more balanced face proportions – filler can be addressing the volume replacement.
In case of significant volume deficiency – surgical options exist which we can refer to.
Due to anatomical restictions, the area usually improved as a step by step filling rather than one off procedure (although results usually seen after each).
This is demonstration educational material.
Slight improvement with injectable fillers, not instant rejuvenation, then let the filler settle, then decide if top up needed.
Small chin is most commonly due to genetic predisposition. Our body naturally tend to keep balance, therefore changing balance from a small chin to a larger, more defined chin, it is important to go step by step. Initially VISTA Clinic Australia cosmetic doctor will improve your chin to certain degree only.
This example had initial filler in chin and anatomically related areas, same day.
Fat excess under the chin
Fat deposits under the chin can be due to multiple causes. Most common cause is overweight body in general and topical cosmetic treatments can achieve only certain improvement in such cases. It is not weight loss treatment, rather local shaping.
Second most common cause is a genetic predisposition.
Underlying bone structure with not strong enough support – for example, small chin or neck deformities can be contributing factors.
Depend on the cause of the problem, VISTA Clinic experienced cosmetic doctor will apply the most appropriate treatment options plan.
In the examples here was combination approach of skin quality improvement, fat dissolve injections, filler volume restoration and before/after are taking few months apart.
