The chin plays a bigger role in facial harmony than most people give it credit for a weak or receding chin can make the nose look more prominent and the area beneath the jaw appear fuller, throwing off overall facial balance. Traditionally, the only fix was a surgical silicone implant under anaesthesia, with all the recovery time and risk that comes with it. Non-surgical chin enhancement offers a far lower-risk, lower-cost alternative using injectable dermal fillers with no cuts, no anaesthesia beyond a topical numbing cream, and minimal downtime. The procedure itself takes under 15 minutes, with results visible immediately and typically lasting 12–24 months depending on the filler used.

small, targeted amounts of the selected filler are injected to build chin volume and restore facial balance, with only the necessary areas treated for precision

results typically last 12–24 months depending on the filler type chosen
Two main filler types are used, chosen based on the degree of correction needed. Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are the go-to for most weak or recessed chins; they're reversible (adjustable if aesthetic goals change later), deliver secure results lasting one to two years, and carry a strong safety track record. Calcium hydroxylapatite is the option for more severe chin retrusion; it's biodegradable and gradually absorbed by the body over time, but tends to be more durable than HA, making it suited to patients needing a stronger correction.
Precision in placement is what separates a natural-looking result from an obvious one Dr. Dadu expands only the specific areas necessary for the desired outcome, which is also what allows the chin to be reshaped in a targeted way (lengthened, more pointed, more square) rather than simply "bigger." There's a secondary effect worth noting too: because chin and jawline projection are visually connected to the neck, adding chin volume tends to pull the skin along the jaw and upper neck tighter, giving a leaner, more defined look beyond just the chin itself.
The injection process itself takes under 15 minutes, with results visible immediately.
Typically 12–24 months, depending on which filler is used hyaluronic acid generally lasts 1–2 years, while calcium hydroxylapatite tends to last longer given its greater durability.
A topical numbing cream is applied 15–30 minutes before treatment, keeping discomfort minimal.
Very little mild bruising, swelling, redness, or tenderness may last about a week, but most patients return to work the following day.
Anyone with unhealed wounds in the area, active skin rashes, known allergies to hyaluronic acid or anaesthetics, sensitivity to bovine-derived products, or an autoimmune disorder should avoid this treatment.
Yes, particularly with hyaluronic acid fillers if aesthetic goals change, results can be adjusted or dissolved.
Cost depends on filler type and amount needed to achieve the desired result confirmed during consultation at Dadu Medical Centre.
