Discover the Benefits of Non-Surgical Chin Fillers
In today’s fast-paced world, many seek immediate, effective, and minimally invasive options to enhance their appearance. Chin fillers have emerged as a preferable alternative to traditional chin implants, offering convenience, flexibility, and immediate results without the commitment of surgery.
What are Chin Fillers?
Dermal fillers are extremely versatile and popular for a wide range of treatment options. They can be used to fill in wrinkles and folds caused by volume loss, lift sagging cheeks, and augment thin or aging lips. They can also be used to augment and contour the chin & jaw line to help improve a person’s profile, facial balance, and aesthetics.
Chin fillers are now FDA-approved and can be administered through a simple injection process by a qualified plastic surgeon. Juvederm Voluma XC, Restylane Defyne, and Restylane Lyft fillers are available for non-surgical chin augmentation and provide long-lasting, natural-looking results.
Although chin implant surgery is a relatively simple procedure that can be performed under local anesthesia and is permanent, many opt for injectable chin fillers as there is no downtime and results are reversible and can last 1 to 2 years. Since the FDA approval of chin fillers over the past few years, Dr. Rubinstein, a board certified facial plastic surgeon in the Hudson Valley, NY, has been busy teaching other physicians the art and technique of non surgical chin fillers.

How Chin Fillers Work
Chin fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance that occurs naturally in the human body. It provides hydration and volume, making it perfect for safely augmenting small areas of the face. Fillers are long-lasting, safe, and require little to no downtime.
Many people are dissatisfied with the appearance of their chin. A receding or “weak” chin can affect facial balance, the facial profile, and the overall appearance of the jaw and face. Using chin fillers, a plastic surgeon can augment and contour the chin for a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing look.
Good Candidates for Chin Fillers
Most people over the age of 18 are eligible for chin fillers. The procedure is popular with both men and women. In general, prospective patients should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations for the treatment. Dr. Rubinstein can perform 3D Vectra computer imaging to give you an idea of how you will look with chin fillers vs. a chin implant.
While the treatment is very safe overall, not everyone is a good candidate for chin fillers. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should wait to move forward with the treatment. Those with certain allergies (such as a lidocaine allergy) and medical conditions may not be eligible for the procedure; a consultation with Dr. Rubinstein will help you determine your individual candidacy.

THE PROCEDURE
The Chin Filler Procedure
Chin filler is a great choice for people with busy lifestyles because the treatment is quick and convenient. No anesthesia is required for the procedure, though you may request topical numbing to make the treatment more comfortable. The fillers contain local anesthetic as part of the formula, which helps to reduce any discomfort from the injections. Dr. Rubinstein also uses a microcannula during the injection for added comfort, safety, and reduced bruising.
Before the injections, the area will be cleansed and prepared for treatment. Dr. Rubinstein will go over the treatment plan with you once more before he begins. You will typically be asked to sit up during the treatment, which generally takes 20 to 30 minutes, including prep time.
Once you are ready, Dr. Rubinstein will carefully inject the filler into your chin to achieve the goals you discussed during your consultation. He will add filler strategically to shape and augment your chin as needed, creating a balanced and attractive appearance. After the treatment, you can go home almost immediately. Fillers are minimally invasive, but you may want to take at least the rest of the day off after your procedure.
Chin Filler Recovery
Unlike surgery, you can go back to many of your normal activities right away after chin filler treatments. If you have a desk job, you don’t have to take any time off if you don’t want to.
With that said, you should avoid strenuous activities and exercise for the first 48 hours. You will also need to avoid direct sunlight for the first few days. Touching your face should be kept to a minimum and you should keep the treated area clean.
Your chin will likely be sore for the first few days. You can control any discomfort with over-the-counter medications such as Tylenol and ice. Dr. Rubinstein can give you more tips for a comfortable recovery, but you should be back to normal very quickly.
Chin Fillers: Risks and Side Effects
Chin filler treatments are very safe overall. Allergies to the ingredients are rare and patients typically only experience minor side effects.
Swelling, redness, and tenderness are common side effects, but they generally resolve quickly. Bruising and bleeding may also occur.
Rarer side effects and complications can include allergic reactions, nerve damage, infection, and damage to the skin. Asymmetry or a poor aesthetic outcome can also occur. All of these risks can be reduced significantly by choosing a board-certified and skilled provider like Dr. Ran Rubinstein.
