Chin Fillers in Scottsdale, Arizona
Whether you want to improve your facial symmetry, strengthen your chin, or contour your jawline, an injectable chin filler can give you the look and face shape you’ve always wanted. From benefits and side effects to preparation and recovery, we have all the information you need to feel comfortable and confident about getting chin fillers in Scottdale, Arizona.
WHAT ARE CHIN FILLERS?
Chin Filler Benefits
As one of the most prominent features of your face, your chin establishes the foundational balance of your facial proportions. Because of that, there are several aesthetic benefits to getting chin fillers:
- Enhances your facial balance
- More affordable than surgical treatments
- Strengthens and defines your chin shape
- Treat signs of aging by smoothing your surrounding skin
Chin Filler Side Effects
Though chin fillers are safe and generally well-tolerated by most clients, as with any cosmetic procedure, there are some potential side effects. These are the most common:
- Bruising
- Swelling
- Redness
- Tenderness
- Pain
- Numbness
Most side effects disappear within a few days or occasionally up to 1-2 weeks.
Types of Dermal Fillers For Chin Contouring
We offer two main types of FDA-approved dermal fillers used for chin contouring: Juvederm and Restylane. Each type offers its own benefits and drawbacks. Here’s a quick breakdown:
Juvederm: This is a thick, hyaluronic acid-based filler. Its smooth texture makes it the best option for smoothing fine lines and wrinkles. Juvederm is FDA-approved.
Restylane: As another hyaluronic acid-based filler, Restylane is more cohesive and stays in place better, making it the ideal choice for adding volume and shape. Restylane is FDA-approved.
Depending on your chin-shaping goals, one type of filler (or a combination of both) may be the best option for you.
Chin Filler Before & After
Post-Care Treatment for chin fillers
If you’ve just had chin fillers injected, here are a few post-treatment instructions to keep in mind:
- Drink plenty of water!
- Avoid strenuous exercise and activities that may cause excessive sweating for the first 24 hours after treatment.
- Avoid sleeping on your face for the first 2-3 nights.
- Avoid applying makeup on your face and lips for at least 24 hours.
- Stay out of saunas and hot tubs for the first week after treatment.
If you experience any side effects, such as bruising, swelling, or redness, don’t hesitate to contact your doctor.
FACIAL CONTOURING: THE COMPLETE TREATMENT
Chin fillers are often combined with several other treatments for full facial contouring. Those other treatments often include jawline fillers, cheekbone enhancements, and Botox/Dysport treatments.
