Chin Enhancement
DERMAL FILLERS: DIMINISH WRINKLES, INCREASE LIP & CHEEK VOLUME
Gentle Care Laser Aesthetics offers Juvéderm®, Restylane®, Juvéderm® Voluma, and Juvederm Volbella® Hyaluronic Acid dermal fillers to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and creases, as well as to restore volume in the cheek, chin and lip areas. The most appropriate lines to treat with fillers are the static lines you can see when your face is not moving (like smile lines). The most commonly treated areas include: lips, smile lines (or nasolabial folds), mouth lines (or marionette lines), smoker lines (or vertical lip lines), cheeks or chin, and tear troughs. A single treatment can provide subtle to dramatic improvement in appearance without surgery and with little downtime. *
Over the last several years, dermal fillers have become incredibly popular due to their fast and long-lasting results. Dermal fillers supplement the body's age depleted hyaluronic acid and because hyaluronic acid occurs naturally within the body, it also dissolves naturally and requires no allergy testing prior to treatment. Whether you are restoring volume loss to create a more youthful appearance or adding volume for facial contouring you may see the improvement almost immediately.*
At Gentle Care Laser Aesthetics Dr. Khan will work with you to create a safe and effective personalized treatment plan to ensure your cosmetic goals are achieved and your expectations are surpassed.

how does chin enhancement or augmentation work?
With dermal fillers, you can balance your profile by augmenting your chin without the lengthy recovery time, and the pain and risks associated with surgical chin implants.*
Dr. Khan offers a non-surgical chin augmentation using Radiesse, Restylane or Juvederm injectable fillers.* This procedure produces minimal to no pain since numbing cream is used and lidocaine is injected to block pain locally. The filler injected into precise areas of the chin via a small needle resulting in the augmentation of your chin and improvement of your profile.*
Results are instant without any major swelling or pain. Another advantage of the non-surgical chin augmentation is that the patient has control of how much correction she/he wants by observing the procedure with a hand-held mirror and giving her/his feedback to Dr. Khan*
Minor swelling and tenderness may last two to three days after the procedure. If Radiesse is used, the results will last for about two years. Juvederm typically lasts about one year. Since our faces change as we age, precise adjustments of the chin with this non-invasive approach allow a perpetually natural look.
