Allergan, the global aesthetic pharmaceutical company, has launched Volume Filler, as part of their line up of dermal fillers.
The Importance of Facial Definition
Chin projection and jawline definition are important attributes of an attractive face, as they form the frame of our facial features.
The chin is an area of improvement that many people can benefit from. This is especially true as our Asian mandible (jawbone) is typically smaller and our chins are more receded than our Caucasian counterparts.
Moreover, as we grow older, we start to lose fat and have bone shrinkage around the chin. The soft tissues around the jawline also start to loosen. This is where Volume Chin Filler can be considered as a chin filler treatment in Singapore.
What is Volume Chin Filler?
Volume Chin Filler is a hyaluronic acid-based filler designed to sculpt the chin and jawline areas, giving you facial definition.
With its patented VYCROSS® technology in hyaluronic acid, Volume Chin Filler results can last for up to 18 – 24 months. This is comparatively longer than its cousin, which can last up to 18 months.
This product contains lidocaine to aid with a more comfortable treatment experience.
How Volume Chin Filler Works
The hyaluronic acid in Volume Chin Filler replaces lost volume in the chin and also binds to water molecules, adding a smoother and more contoured appearance to the chin.
During the procedure, Volume Chin Filler will be injected into targeted areas of the chin. The filler adds volume to the chin area, improving facial definition and balancing the face proportions.
Benefits of Volume Chin Filler
Non-surgical procedure: Volume Chin Filler treatment is non-invasive, meaning there is no need for surgery or a lengthy recovery period.
Natural-looking results: Due to the smooth texture of Volume Chin Filler, the results look natural, with subtle improvements to the chin’s contour.
Quick procedure with minimal downtime: The treatment is fast, often completed in under 30 minutes, and patients can return to normal activities shortly afterwards.
Reversible treatment: Volume Chin Filler is made of hyaluronic acid, which can be broken down by the body. The results are not permanent. If desired, the filler can be dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase.
Differences Between Volume Chin Filler and Other Dermal Fillers
Key differences exist between Volume Chin Filler and other dermal fillers, such as CaHA Skinbooster. Volume Chin Filler is known for its smooth consistency, which is ideal for areas like the chin requiring subtle and even contouring.
CaHA Skinbooster is a calcium-based rather than hyaluronic acid-based. While it lasts longer than Volume Chin Filler, it may not offer the same precision and flexibility in shaping the chin.
One of the main advantages of Volume Chin Filler is its ability to integrate smoothly into the skin, creating a more natural look and feel. Furthermore, Volume Chin Filler has a lower risk of lumpiness or uneven texture than other fillers.
Results with Chin Filler
The softening of the lower face can now be safely and effectively reversed with hyaluronic acid chin fillers. It is a beneficial addition to our beautifying and anti-ageing arsenal for the lower face.
Volume Chin Filler is CE marked to restore and create volume in the chin and jawline area.
Who Should Consider Volume Chin Filler?
Volume Chin Filler suits individuals who want to enhance their chin’s definition without surgery. This treatment is especially beneficial for:
People with a recessed or weak chin who want to create more balance in their facial proportions.
Those who want to improve their jawline.
Patients who prefer a quick and minimally invasive procedure with no downtime.
Individuals with skin conditions, infections, or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding may need to avoid this treatment. A consultation with a licensed medical professional is necessary to determine eligibility.
Are there Side Effects and Risks?
As with any cosmetic treatment, there are potential side effects and risks associated with Volume Chin Filler. Side effects are commonly mild and temporary, such as:
Swelling
Redness
Tenderness or pain at the injection site
Bruising
These side effects usually resolve within a few days. Rarely, more serious side effects may occur, such as:
Infection
Allergic reactions
Lumps or unevenness
Nerve damage or blockage of blood vessels (very rare)
Choosing a skilled and experienced doctor minimises the risk of complications.
How Long Do Volume Chin Filler Results Last?
As mentioned earlier, the results of Volume Chin Filler typically last between 18 and 24 months. However, metabolism, lifestyle, and the specific product used can affect how long the results last.
Many patients schedule maintenance treatments every 12 months to preserve their results.
Is Volume Chin Filler Right for You?
Volume Chin Filler is ideal for individuals looking to enhance their facial definition without committing to surgery. However, consulting with a qualified professional is essential to assess whether Volume Chin Filler is the right choice for your needs.
With its minimal risks, customisable results, and reversibility, Volume Chin Filler could be perfect for many people seeking improved facial symmetry and definition. Book an appointment now to learn more about Volume Chin Filler.
