Understanding Chin Retraction
- Chin retraction, also known as a recessed or retruded chin, is a condition where the chin sits further back than ideal in relation to the rest of the face. This can lead to a weakened side profile, facial imbalance, and even affect jaw function or posture in some cases.
- Whether caused by genetics, developmental issues, or aging, chin retraction can now be effectively addressed through non-surgical fillers or chin augmentation surgery to create a stronger, more proportionate lower face.
- Enhances facial balance and profile.
- Strengthens the appearance of the jaw and neck.
- Creates a more confident and defined look.
