Hello, this is BT Plastic Surgery.

The easiest choice people often make to create a V-line is chin filler.

However, repeated procedures or injecting excessive amounts can sometimes lead to unexpected side effects,

and a representative example is the so-called “witch chin” phenomenon.

Why does a witch chin occur?

*What is a witch chin?

: It refers to a condition where the chin tip sags downward and lengthens, or protrudes like a hook, making the face look stubborn and older.

» The weight of the filler and gravity

: Filler is a gel component that sits somewhere between liquid and solid.

As time passes, it can sag downward under the influence of gravity, or be pushed forward by muscle movement.

» Tissue stretching

: The skin tissue stretches by the amount of filler that is injected.

Even after the filler is absorbed or dissolved, the stretched skin does not contract, making the chin tip look loose and long.

» Conflict with muscles

: When people with strong chin muscles receive filler, the muscles compress the filler, causing the shape to become uneven or

a noticeably pointed chin tip, creating an unnatural look.

Why is contouring surgery the fundamental solution?

Filler is only a temporary cover-up that fills in missing volume,

whereas contouring surgery is a process of reconstructing the facial bone framework itself.

In particular, the reasons contouring surgery is overwhelmingly effective for creating a slim line without worrying about a witch chin are as follows.

  1. Clear advancement and reduction without sagging

Chin surgery moves and fixes the bone itself.

Unlike filler, there is no worry about it flowing downward, and because unnecessary bone is removed to reduce the actual area,

a light V-line can be achieved without a heavy look.

  1. Three-dimensional definition that creates balanced proportions

Contouring surgery does not simply treat the chin; it considers the overall flow of the cheekbones and square jaw.

When the angle beneath the ears is refined with square jaw surgery and the length is adjusted with chin surgery,

you get natural definition that fits your face, rather than an artificially protruding chin.

  1. Semi-permanent durability

Unlike filler, which requires periodic touch-ups and brings concerns about shape changes every time it is injected,

contouring surgery provides reliable results that last a lifetime with just one operation.

Filling the area with a foreign substance ultimately has limitations.

In particular, for people with well-developed chin muscles or low skin elasticity, contouring surgery that corrects the bone structure is much safer in the long term and is also more aesthetically superior than filler.

All facial contouring surgeries at BT Plastic Surgery are performed directly by Director Lee Ho-bin, a facial contouring specialist with 20 years of experience,

Before and after surgery, low-dose CT scans are taken to accurately understand and diagnose the patient’s facial condition.

In addition, the on-site anesthesiology director monitors the patient’s condition in real time

to help ensure a safe surgery.

At BT, a hospital with no accidents and safe surgery,

we create beautiful faces that fit each patient’s face perfectly.
