WHAT are fillers?
Hyaluronic acid filler is a proteoglycan similar to what is also found in our skin, eyes and joints. It is highly reversible, either by dissolution or natural breakdown by the body over months, and has been found to be very safe for facial contouring as well!
WHY did you want to do fillers!
- Ive always wanted a sharper jawline and a smaller face when I smile because whenever I smile the muscles on the side of my face will show and I really dislike it!!
WHY not go under the knife?
- I did consider going under the knife for my jaw but after much discussion with my friends that have been under the knife they advised me not to as I'm only turning 20 and its a super major operation!! And its probably not very advisable for me as it would have been my first surgery!
WHEN did I first get my fillers done?
- I got my fillers done about 2-3 months back in November! During my first treatment I did botox on the side of my jaw and also chin fillers! What botox does is that it makes your muscle smaller and results can be seen about 1 week after its done! Whereas for fillers, the results are instant and there is also no downtime!
WHO and WHERE did I do these treatments with?
- I did my fillers and botox with Dr Gerard Ee, at Clifford Clinic!

Are there any SIDE EFFECTS?
An occasional side effect is some dull aching and slight bruising under the chin for a few days. However mine did not swell much! So I guess it varies from each individual! Swelling is minimal and the result is obvious immediately as well! Check out my before and after photos down below!
HOW much does it cost?
Nose threads $1200
Chin filler $900
Botox $800
BEFORE and AFTER photos!
Before!
My chin was much stubbier and my jaw muscles were quite obvious!
  In comparison. These photos were taken right before and right after the treatment! The results are instant!  
I am able to smile more confidently now because I don't have bulging muscles when I smile anymore!!
 
About almost 2 months later, my chin is still looking sharp! and I still have the V shape face! Fillers are really a very good way for face contouring! And I'm super pleased with how long it can last as well!
For chin contouring, it only takes one, at most two injections! For me i took 2 injections! For first-time fillers, an average of 1-2cc of filler is already enough and pain is also minimised with the use of filler that contains lignocaine to numb the injected areas! It really felt like an ant bite and it wasn't painful for me at all personally!
Chin filler augmentation can create a more defined 3D shape of the chin and not only able to bring the chin forward for those with receding chins (retrognathia) but also make it sharper and/or longer for those with short, small chins (micrognathia).This gave me the ideal V shaped face that I have always wanted! Chin filler augmentation may sometimes have a advantage over chin implant surgery in being able to create a more beautiful shape because it can be moulded when injected as well!
It only takes a short procedure of under 15 minutes and around 2 injections at the chin area for the augmentation and there was very little bleeding for me! Maybe only a little droplet of blood! But I didn't feel any pain nor did I even know there was blood! This is also because it is controlled by topical numbing cream and local anaesthetic that is prepared into the filler prior to the procedure!!
I love what fillers did for me and I'm super super happy with the clinic and Dr Ee for this service! I feel like I'm always going to continue doing fillers simple because of how easy and fuss free it is!
A big thank you to Clifford Clinic and Dr Ee, for giving me the face shape of my dreams!!
