Jawline and Chin Contouring

An ideal jawline angle in women is 125 degrees. The jawline changes with age and the biggest complaint from the late 30s is the appearance of jowls.

Chin deficiency is usually apparent on looking at a person’s side profile, where the chin should align with a vertical line drawn through the philtrum (junction between the nose and upper lip). There is no simple answer to this and the best way forward is to come and discuss with Dr Ahmad. He will advise you on what is best suited to your facial profile and balances out other features of your face.

A weak chin is also known as an under-projected chin or a receding chin and it is where the chin does not project forwards enough to balance out the other parts of the face such as the nose, forehead, and lips.

A weak chin can be a genetic trait that has been passed down by your parents but in some cases, it could be a congenital defect or maybe the result of an injury where the lower jawbone may have been damaged.

Some patients don’t realise that they have a weak chin and instead focus their attention on their nose or lips not being right. A good way to see if your chin is weak is to get a photo of yourself from a profile view. You will be able to see the shape of your face and identify a weak chin or weak jawline.
