Possessing a slim, round and harmonious chin is an important factor that helps the face become more balanced, graceful and youthful. However, not everyone is lucky enough to be born with the desired chin shape. That is why round chin injection with filler is becoming one of the beauty methods chosen by many people today. So what is round chin injection, is it really effective? What are the advantages and disadvantages of this method and is it suitable for you? Let’s find out the details in the article below with HBIO Clinic to make the right choice before beautifying!

What is round chin injection?

Round chin injection is a method of using filler (biological filler) to create a chin with a slight curve, naturally rounded, helping the overall face become more balanced, softer and younger. Unlike sharp V-line chin shapes that are often suitable for angular faces, round chins are suitable for those who love gentle, feminine beauty or follow the Korean baby face style.

The method of injecting a full, round chin does not require surgery, is not very painful, requires almost no recovery time and the effect is immediately visible after injection. Filler will be injected directly into the chin area to adjust the length, fullness or create a harmonious round line according to the customer’s wishes.

Advantages of Round Chin Injections

Non-surgical – non-invasive – no downtime required

Round chin injections are a procedure that uses filler (biological dermal filler) to shape the chin without cutting, dissecting, or interfering with the jawbone. The injection process is quick, taking only about 15-30 minutes, requires no general anesthesia, leaves no scars, and you can return to normal activities immediately afterward.

Visible results immediately after injection

After filler injection, the chin shape is clearly defined, and the face becomes more balanced, slender, and harmonious instantly. Especially for those with short chins, slightly recessed chins, or lacking definition in the lower chin area, just the right amount of filler can “correct” the overall facial appearance.

Round chin shape provides a youthful and soft look

Unlike the sharp V-line chin shape, a round chin is suitable for those who want to maintain a baby face look or a natural, gentle style. The chin is gently rounded, not too pointed, making the face look friendly, gentle, and more approachable.

The injection can be adjusted flexibly as desired.

One of the major advantages of filler is its ease of adjustment. If you are not satisfied with the chin shape after injection, you can:
  • Inject more to adjust the length or curvature.
  • Inject dissolving agents (hyaluronidase enzyme) to dissolve the filler and reshape it as desired.
  • This is especially beneficial for first-time beauty treatments or those who haven’t yet determined their long-term style.

Less pain – less swelling – fewer side effects if done correctly.

When injected into the correct tissue layer and with the right technique, the filler will distribute evenly and cause minimal pain, feeling only like a slight insect bite. After injection, there may be slight swelling at the injection site for the first 1-2 days, but this will gradually subside without affecting daily activities.

Disadvantages of rounded chin injection:

The effect is only temporary.

Filler is not a permanent material. Depending on the type of filler and individual body characteristics, the effects of chin injections usually last from 6 to 12 months. After this time, the filler will gradually dissolve naturally through the body’s mechanisms, and the chin shape will slowly return to its original state.
If you want to maintain the chin shape long-term, you need touch-up injections.

The effectiveness depends heavily on the doctor’s skill.

Injecting fillers may seem simple, but if performed by someone lacking expertise:
  • They may be injected in the wrong location, causing the filler to clump, become uneven, and result in an asymmetrical chin.
  • Injecting into the wrong tissue layer or blood vessel can lead to dangerous complications such as vascular occlusion and tissue necrosis.
  • Using an excessive amount can cause the chin to become stiff, unnatural, look “fake,” and not suit the face.
Therefore, choosing an experienced doctor and a reputable facility is extremely important.

Not suitable for all cases

Although effective for many people, chin augmentation injections are not suitable for cases such as:
  • Severely recessed chin due to bone structure.
  • Significantly asymmetrical chin due to jaw misalignment.
  • Desire for a complete structural change in the chin shape (e.g., from a short chin to a much longer, sharper chin).
In these cases, the doctor may recommend corrective surgery or chin augmentation with artificial cartilage, as filler injections cannot provide a complete solution.

Side effects may occur if fillers of unknown origin are used.

Using unverified, unregulated fillers can lead to:
  • Clumping under the skin.
  • Allergies, inflammation, and prolonged swelling.
  • Infection or even permanent deformity if not treated promptly.
Therefore, you should absolutely avoid injections at unreliable spas where dermatologists are not present.

Who should get a round chin injection?

Not everyone is suited to a sharp V-line chin. For those who pursue a natural, soft, and feminine style, a round chin injection is the ideal choice. Below are the most suitable candidates for this method:

People with short or slightly recessed chins

  • A short chin can make the face appear disproportionate, creating an imbalance between the forehead, nose, and chin.
  • A recessed chin (chin that falls inward) often gives the face a “broken” appearance, lacking clear lines.
A round chin injection helps to accentuate the lower chin, naturally improving its projection and harmonizing the overall facial features without surgery.

People with small, baby-faced features who want to maintain a gentle look

Those with round, small faces or those with a Korean-style face are often not suited to overly sharp V-line chins. A round chin helps maintain fullness, youthfulness, and creates a gentle curve, perfectly suited to a cute or naturally elegant style.

For those who have had V-line chin injections but feel the look is too sharp or unsuitable:

Some people feel their features have become “cold” and less soft after V-line chin injections. Re-injecting filler to create a round chin shape will help “soften” the facial features, restoring harmony and approachability.

For those who want to improve their facial appearance without surgery:

Those who are afraid of surgery, lack recovery time, or are not ready for chin augmentation surgery. Filler injections are a temporary, low-risk, less painful solution that can be adjusted over time.
Round chin injections are one of the modern, quick, and minimally invasive beauty methods that help the face become more harmonious and balanced in a short time. However, the most important factor in achieving a natural, soft chin shape while ensuring safety is choosing a reputable aesthetic clinic.
