Hyaluronic acid injection (chin)

Hyaluronic acid injections are one of those procedures that depend on the judgment and skill of the physician. If the selection of the hyaluronic acid preparation, the injection site, or the amount of hyaluronic acid injected is not correct, the result may not be what was envisioned.

Therefore, Bianca Clinic has established Bianca's original technique. Doctors who have mastered the Bianca-style hyaluronic acid METHOD perform hyaluronic acid injections. While checking the balance of the entire face, the doctor carefully injects hyaluronic acid at the appropriate position for the chin tip and jaw line, while checking the balance from the side profile (E-line) and frontal view.

The chin is an area that affects both frontal and profile impressions, and even the slightest change can easily alter the balance of the entire face. For this reason, we take into consideration not only the amount of injections, but also the layers to be injected and the way they are spread, aiming for a chin augmentation that emphasizes a balance between sharpness and naturalness.

The shape and size of the chin can affect the contouring and the impression of the face. For example, a small chin can easily give the appearance of no chin or a double chin.

Others suffer from a condition called "mouth sores," in which the mouth appears to protrude. In the case of mouth sagging, the mouth tends to look raised and the E-line tends to collapse. Some people are anxious about having a scalpel inserted into their jaw or contouring, although some procedures involve incisions.

Hyaluronic acid injections can be used to correct the volume of the chin without incisions to achieve a refined contour. Hyaluronic acid injections can also be used to smooth out jawline irregularities such as a cracked chin.

Bianca Clinic offers several hyaluronic acid formulations, including the JUVIDERM Bi-Cross series, Restylane/Restylane Lift, and Belotero.

Hyaluronic acid preparations differ in particle size and structure. Those with large particles and relatively firm texture are called high molecular weight, while those with fine and soft particles are called low molecular weight. Cross-linked hyaluronic acid, in which hyaluronic acid is bonded to each other to enhance stability, is expected to maintain its shape and durability.

The chin has relatively thick skin and subcutaneous tissue, and since contouring is required in this area, low molecular weight or non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid may not provide sufficient durability in some cases. Therefore, we carefully check the patient's skeletal structure and jaw condition before selecting a hyaluronic acid formulation suitable for the injection site and layer. The duration of hyaluronic acid injections for the chin at Bianca Clinic ranges from 6 months to 2 years, depending on the individual.
