    What to know — Chin

    Think of it like adding a bit of sturdy, natural-feeling gel (made from a sugar your body already has) right onto the chin bone to build it up. This gel, called hyaluronic acid, is specially designed to be firm and hold its shape, giving you more projection and definition where you need it.

    The key is using the *right* kind of filler. You need a firm, supportive one that mimics bone, not a soft, pillowy one meant for lips. The injector's skill is everything here to avoid looking unnatural or 'done'.
