What Is Jawline & Chin Enhancement?

Non-surgical chin augmentation, also known as jawline and chin enhancement, entails the precise application of dermal fillers to sculpt and refine the chin and jawline. Through meticulous injection techniques, Dr. Rednam can enhance the lower face, effectively addressing concerns such as a weak chin or undefined jawline to achieve a balanced and defined facial profile.

Benefits of Chin & Jawline Enhancement with Dermal Filler
