Chin Augmentation: Enhancing Facial Profile and Balance
Chin augmentation enhances facial balance by adding projection and definition to a weak or receding chin, creating better overall facial harmony.
What Is It?
Chin augmentation uses implants or injectable fillers to increase chin projection and improve facial proportions, creating a stronger, more defined jawline.
