How Much Volume Is Needed for Chin Augmentation? A Guide to 1ml, 1.5ml, 2ml and 3ml

2 Sept

The amount of injectable product required for chin contouring varies from person to person. Factors such as facial proportions, chin projection, skin structure and personal goals all play a role. While exact results cannot be guaranteed, the following guide outlines what different volumes may typically achieve.

1ml (Subtle Refinement)

Often used for first-time patients or those wanting a small adjustment
Provides gentle projection and definition
Suitable for balancing minor asymmetries or trialling treatment before deciding on more volume such as a cleft chin (“bum” chin)

Example of 1ml

1.5 - 2ml (Noticeable Balance)

Offers more visible projection compared to 1ml
Helps to improve the side profile and balance with the lips and nose
May provide better definition along the jawline when combined with other treatments

Example of 1.5ml

3ml (Structural Support)

Typically recommended for patients with a more recessed chin or those seeking stronger definition
Provides significant forward projection and shape change
Often used as part of a staged plan, sometimes applied over more than one session for safety and natural integration

Example of 3ml

Important Considerations

These volumes are general examples, not fixed rules
The best outcome depends on your anatomy, goals and practitioner assessment
Treatments are temporary, with results usually lasting six to twelve months
A staged approach is often safest, allowing the practitioner to monitor integration and refine the result
