Face Condition
Receive expert treatment from Dr Owen Thomas, advanced aesthetic doctor, for a weak chin using high-quality dermal fillers, giving you a strong and youthful chin and jawline.
Using a refined process of a detailed assessment guiding treatment, our London treatment facilities provide the optimal solution for rejuvenating the chin and jawline area. We use a full facial profile of the chin, nasal profile and lips to ensure that profile balancing is maintained following treatment.
Dermal fillers can be used in the chin and lips, in conjunction with nonsurgical rhinoplasty to provide a youthful look. The forehead may also be assessed for frontal bossing, as this leads to a hollowed appearance. In this case, soft fillers may be injected to attempt to reduce these signs of ageing. Before any treatment takes place, a full detailed assessment will be carried out to establish the goals of the procedure, and to design a bespoke treatment plan.
As we age, the bone around the chin tends to shrink backwards, giving a less defined jawline and chin. This is what becomes known as a weak chin, which can in turn encourage other signs of ageing to develop such as marionette lines and jowling. Having a weak chin can also affect the appearance of the nose, making it look longer. With successful treatment, a defined chin can provide a more youthful appearance.
Dr Owen is a highly-experienced clinician, with over 20 years as a medical professional. Having completed a Master’s Degree in injectable aesthetic treatments, Dr Owen has also successfully completed the Aesthetic Intelligence Fellowship. You will be given expert-level care during and following your treatment, with successful results already delivered to a multitude of patients.
Soft dermal fillers not only help to define a dominant chin for both men and women, but can also help to reduce the long-lasting signs of acne. Hollow areas of skin produced by severe acne can be successfully treated with dermal fillers, giving the skin a softer, more radiant and full-bodied look. By using muscle-relaxing injections, Dr Owen is able to relax the mentalis muscle to improve chin projection.
Our treatments are always designed to ensure that each one of our patients is given a tailored plan. This means that the price of treatment will be varied for each person, as we only charge on the basis of how much filler is required to achieve the desired outcome. Depending on how much recession has occurred in the mandible bone and the condition of the soft tissue, the price of treatment can vary significantly.

As we only use high-quality dermal fillers for our treatments, results of successful procedures can last up to 24 months with top up appointments. We ensure that the fillers we use in the chin are robust and elastic to provide the desired volume and lift. Our range of dermal filler products include Juvederm Voluma, Teoxane RHA-4 or Ultra Deep, Restylane Lyft & Belotero Intense.
While recovery time will vary from patient-to-patient, you can generally resume most everyday activities immediately. We recommend that you avoid any intense physical activity for the first 24-48 hours to avoid swelling and bruising. There is no evidence that alcohol negatively affects recovery, however we do recommend moderating consumption following treatment for at least 24 hours.
While side effects are not impossible, the risk of serious adverse reactions to dermal filler treatment is greatly minimised thanks to careful technique and meticulous preparation. Typically, patients experience mild redness and swelling around the injection site which tends to subside after 24-48 hours.
As dermal fillers are injected with a fine needle and great care, pain is minimised. Dr Owen also uses cooling, vibration, and local anaesthetic to reduce any discomfort that may occur during treatment.
