A small or ‘weak’ chin presents itself as shorter and smaller in size, compared with the nose and lips.

Where the upper lip may appear larger and more protruding, this causes the chin to look out of proportion and unbalanced, reducing the definition of chin to neck contour.

A small chin may be due to genes, a congenital defect, or the effects from trauma or injury to the jawbone. Fillers can be carefully placed to increase the prominence and vertical dimension of the chin and to the angle of the jaw line to greatly improve aesthetics from the side the front view.
