Book NowBook NowChin projection and shape play a key role in overall facial definition. A well-proportioned chin creates balance, enhances jawline contour, and improves harmony between facial features. Many people feel self-conscious about their profile or have concerns about insufficient chin projection — sometimes avoiding side-profile photos entirely. Chin fillers use hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers to reshape and enhance the chin without invasive surgery. Benefits include:

At Harley Street MD, we pride ourselves on bespoke, patient-centred care. Every recommendation is customised to your unique facial proportions and symmetry. We begin with an in-depth facial assessment to understand your anatomy, your concerns, and your desired results. We then design a treatment plan to achieve a natural, balanced enhancement — whether that’s a subtle refinement or a dramatic reshaping. All procedures are performed by GMC-registered doctors using only premium hyaluronic acid fillers (Juvéderm Voluma® and Volux®) for safety, longevity, and natural integration.
Fillers are not licensed for use during pregnancy, but current evidence suggests no harm. No action is typically required — the product will naturally break down.
In the UK, the authority only approves license for biodegradable dermal fillers. These fillers are being absorbed gradually over time and are therefore not permanent. The officials have banned permanent dermal fillers in the UK and rightly so because they are dangerous and may cause irreversible damage to your skin. Chin fillers are long-lasting but not permanent, Juvéderm Voluma lasts 12-18 months, whereas the latest Juvéderm Volux lasts 18-24 months.
Dermal fillers are pharmaceutical-grade, gel-like injectables designed specifically to restore volume, provide lift, smooth out wrinkles, and fill in deep folds. They are very popular due to their effectiveness and versatile nature. We use them to rejuvenate, volumise, plump, and sculpt attractive facial contours. New ways of using dermal fillers are constantly being discovered. Depending on their ingredients, some dermal fillers have added benefits such as stimulating collagen and improving skin hydration. Dermal fillers have become a true contender to plastic surgery over the years, helping people avoid invasive and expensive cosmetic operations.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are the most popular and safest type of dermal fillers. They consist of stabilised, non-animal-based hyaluronic acid. The HA gel is skin-friendly and integrates well with the tissues, closely resembling the hyaluronic acid that exists naturally in the body. Hyaluronic acid fillers improve skin texture by helping the skin retain hydration, and they are long-lasting yet dissolvable.
Facial aesthetics are assessed by proportional balance, not absolute measurements. Leonardo da Vinci’s principle divides the face into equal upper, middle, and lower thirds. If the lower third (subnasale to menton) is shorter than the upper two, the chin may be considered small. Chin fillers restore optimal proportions without surgery.
Yes. From the profile, an ideal chin aligns vertically with the nose and lower lip. If it sits behind this line, it’s considered retracted. Fillers can restore projection and improve facial harmony without invasive procedures.
Yes. Sharpening the chin creates a central focal point, making the face appear slimmer. Aligning chin width with nose width often produces an attractive “V” shape, especially when combined with jawline slimming treatments.
Choose hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers for facial injection because they are safer. Any other fillers are riskier; the reason is HA fillers can be easily and quickly dissolved by hyaluronidase (e.g. Hyalase). This is an important safety net should we ever need to remove it.
Pharmaceutical companies do not harvest HAs from animals or human beings; they made them synthetically in the laboratories. The products are sterile, vegan-friendly, and safe. HA fillers are not permanent, but they are very long-lasting. Your body’s natural existing hyaluronidase enzymes will slowly disintegrate the HA fillers, turn them into water and absorb the water. No residuals will remain. HA fillers are non-toxic, biodegradable, and safe. Millions of people worldwide have tried them.
Absolutely. In men, a strong, broad chin proportionate to the mouth enhances a masculine, chiselled jawline. We adapt techniques for male facial ratios, often combining chin fillers with jawline enhancement.
Yes, when the issue is due to lack of structural support. By improving chin projection and height, skin beneath the chin can be lifted, reducing the appearance of fullness. In cases with excess fat, weight-management treatments may also be considered.
Yes. Dimpling is often caused by overactivity of the mentalis muscle. Fillers can relax the area by adding volume. In more severe cases, Botox® can be combined to further smooth the skin.
High-G Prime HA fillers (thicker consistency) provide the necessary lift and longevity. We use Juvéderm Voluma® and Volux® from Allergan for their superior quality and natural integration.
Yes. We allocate up to 1 hour for first-time patients to assess suitability and proceed if desired.
30–45 minutes including consultation and preparation.
12–24 months depending on filler type, metabolism, and lifestyle.
What are the post-treatment instructions?
Recovery time:
Results are instant. Mild swelling or redness may last a few days. Bruising, if any, resolves in 3–5 days.
Yes. HA fillers can be removed quickly using hyaluronidase.
If a top-up is needed (after swelling has subsided), additional filler is charged at £450 per syringe, since new product is required. The follow-up appointment itself remains free of charge.
Yes in emergencies, but ideally wait 1 week to minimise swelling and bruising.
