Facial Profile Balancing in Seoul

Facial Profile Balancing explained

Profile balancing looks at the face from the side, including the forehead, nose, lips, chin and jawline, and treats several areas together for harmony. A small chin or a low nose bridge can make other features look bigger. Korean clinics often combine nose filler, chin filler and sometimes masseter or chin toxin.

How Facial Profile Balancing works

The doctor uses hyaluronic acid filler to project a short chin, raise the nose bridge, refine the lips and define the jaw angle. Toxin may be added to relax a tense chin or slim a wide jaw. The aim is to change proportions with small amounts rather than to enlarge one feature.
