Overview
Chin filler is frequently used in Korean aesthetic clinics to improve facial proportion and side profile without surgery. It may help create a more balanced lower face, especially when the chin looks short or recessed. The result depends on skeletal structure, filler amount, and injector design. It should be planned carefully because over-projection can look unnatural from the side or front.
