Weak Chin

What is a weak chin and jawline?

A weak chin and jawline refers to a receding chin, or a chin that is short, small and slopes backward. This aesthetic complaint is very common among women and men. For women, it can cause the nose to appear too large and that they are overweight. For men, this can contribute to a less masculine appearance. With a weak chin and jawline, it can often appear as if you have a double chin. The double chin look can result from a lack of definition between the neck and chin or from a chin that is small, narrow or short.

What are the benefits of a strong chin?

The chin is often overlooked, and most people don’t realize how much of the face is impacted by the size, shape and prominence of the chin. By addressing a receding chin and jawline, you can get a more rounded facial appearance. Aesthetic treatments can establish a more refined transition between the jaw and neck. You can also benefit from a more balanced profile. When the chin is too small or recedes, your side profile becomes unbalanced. A stronger chin can also help to make your nose appear much smaller. In many cases, the nose only appears large because the chin is too small.
