Non - Surgical Chin Enhancement
A weak chin may appear smaller or shorter, and cause the upper lip to seem as if it protrudes out unnaturally. Recessive chins are usually either a genetic trait passed down by parents or can also be the result of an injury or direct trauma, especially where the mandible (lower jaw bone) itself has been damaged.
About the treatment
A weak chin may appear smaller or shorter, and cause the upper lip to seem as if it protrudes out unnaturally. Recessive chins are usually either a genetic trait passed down by parents or can also be the result of an injury or direct trauma, especially where the mandible (lower jaw bone) itself has been damaged.
Weak chin or recessive jaw can affect anyone, and though it can cause problems related to speaking and eating, it is more likely to just decrease self-confidence or increase self-consciousness. These psychological effects are due to media portrayal of a strong jawline as an attractive feature in both men and women.
There are a variety of ways to alter the appearance of the jaw as surgery, implants, or non-surgical enhancement with dermal fillers and other techniques.
