Chin fillers are a non-surgical injectable treatment that adds volume and definition to the chin and jawline, creating more balanced facial proportions. This quick, effective procedure can strengthen a recessed chin, improve profile definition, and create a more harmonious facial appearance without surgery or extended downtime.
At The Collins Center, Dr. Beth Collins delivers natural-looking chin enhancement using premium dermal fillers carefully placed to create subtle yet impactful improvements to your lower face contours. Each treatment is customized to complement your unique facial structure while maintaining natural movement and expression.

How Chin Fillers Work
She thoughtfully selects from a range of filler consistencies (firmer formulations for structural projection and support, and softer variants for subtle contouring and smoothing of fine lines) ensuring each treatment is precisely customized to your facial anatomy.
After cleansing and applying a topical numbing agent for your comfort, she strategically injects small amounts of filler at precise depths and locations to create natural-looking projection and definition.
The procedure typically takes 15-30 minutes, with results visible immediately and continuing to improve as any minor swelling subsides. Dr. Collins may use a cannula technique for certain areas to minimize bruising and maximize safety. Throughout the treatment, she evaluates your results from multiple angles to ensure balanced, harmonious enhancement that complements your other facial features.
Most chin filler treatments require just 1-2 syringes of product to achieve optimal results that last 9-12 months, making this a time-efficient, cost-effective way to enhance your facial profile without surgery.

FAQs about Chin Fillers
How long do chin fillers last?
Chin filler results typically last 9-12 months, depending on the specific product used and your individual metabolism. Many patients find their results last on the longer end of this spectrum because the chin area experiences less movement than other facial areas like the lips or cheeks.
Is getting chin fillers painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort during chin filler treatment. We apply a topical numbing cream before treatment, and the fillers themselves contain lidocaine for additional comfort. The chin area generally has fewer nerve endings than other facial areas, making it one of the more comfortable areas to treat.
When will I see results from chin fillers?
You’ll notice immediate improvement in your chin projection and profile after treatment. The final results become fully apparent within 1-2 weeks as any minor swelling or bruising subsides and the filler settles into its optimal position.
Can chin fillers help with a double chin?
While chin fillers can improve the definition between your chin and neck, creating a more attractive angle and profile, they don’t directly address fat under the chin. For patients concerned about submental fullness (double chin), we may recommend combining chin fillers with Kybella® or liposuction for comprehensive improvement.
What’s the difference between chin fillers and a surgical chin implant?
Chin fillers provide temporary, adjustable enhancement without surgery or significant downtime. A surgical chin implant delivers permanent results but requires surgery and recovery time. Many patients start with fillers to “test drive” their new look before considering a permanent option.
Can I exercise after getting chin fillers?
We recommend avoiding strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours after your treatment to minimize swelling and prevent displacement of the filler. After this initial period, you can resume your normal activities without restrictions.
What if I don’t like my results?
One of the advantages of hyaluronic acid fillers is that they can be dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase if you’re unhappy with your results. This provides peace of mind that your enhancement isn’t permanent if your aesthetic preferences change.
How do I prepare for my chin filler appointment?
For optimal results and minimal bruising, avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements like aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E, and fish oil for one week before treatment (if medically appropriate). Arrive with a clean face, and inform us of any history of cold sores, as filler injections can sometimes trigger an outbreak.
