The anchor of the lower face, treated for both its volume and the muscle beneath it.
The chin is the anchor of the lower face. Small changes here, structural or muscular, ripple outward and affect how the entire lower face reads. It is also among the areas where two distinct questions are most often combined: the question of structure and proportion, and the question of submental fullness or dimpling.
Each asks for a different treatment, and consultation begins with understanding which question the patient is actually asking. The work is small, precise, and rewarding when done with care.
The chin changes in several ways across the decades. The bone of the mandible resorbs subtly, and the soft tissue thins, which can leave the chin reading less prominent than it once did. The mentalis muscle can grow more active with the years, sometimes leaving small puckers at rest. Submental fullness can accumulate with weight, with hormonal change, and with the natural redistribution of fat as the face ages.
The arc is responsive to care. Patients who address structural change early, with small amounts of filler, tend to maintain chin proportion meaningfully better than those who wait. Patients who notice submental fullness can address it with appropriate treatment in the right season.
