Weak or Receding Chin
A weak chin is often simply part of the face's natural morphology — it's never a problem in itself. Solutions exist today to balance the features, from injectable treatments to surgery.
What it is, simply
A weak or receding chin is characterized by a chin line set back relative to the rest of the face, which can create an impression of imbalance between the nose, mouth and lower face. It's a morphological trait, often present from birth, sometimes more pronounced with age.
What causes a weak chin?
Bone morphology and genetics
The chin's bone structure is largely determined by heredity.
Loss of projection with age
The chin's soft tissue can lose volume and firmness over time.
Disproportion with other features
A more prominent nose or a strong jawline can visually accentuate a receding chin.
Natural jaw structure
The position of the lower jaw directly influences chin projection.
Available treatments and procedures
Dermal fillers
Add projection to the chin, for a natural, reversible result.
Chin implant
Provides a lasting restoration of chin projection and lower-face balance.
