Liquid silicone removal from the chin
Complications of liquid silicone in the chin
- Pain, swelling, redness, and inflammation
- Skin deformity, sagging, and an uneven, rippled appearance
- Hard, protruding lumps resembling tumors
- Skin inflammation and discoloration, such as yellow or red; in severe cases, the skin may turn purple
- Liquid silicone can migrate into nearby tissues, causing them to become abnormal or deformed, as though liquid silicone had also been injected into those areas
- In some cases, joint or muscle pain may occur as the body reacts to the foreign material
There are two surgical methods for removing liquid silicone from the chin
Liquid filler correction through removal at the clinic can remove the filler effectively and precisely, with safety in mind. The procedure also focuses on concealing the incision so the scar blends naturally with the body. Meticulous suturing helps the incision heal smoothly and look natural.
1. Surgery to remove foreign material and reshape the chin
Chin reshaping through removal (without augmentation) involves removing sagging and misshapen tissue. The doctor may recommend this for cases with a clearly defined lump or an area of chronically inflamed tissue. In cases involving inflammation or infection, the foreign material should first be removed and the infection treated until fully resolved. Augmentation or reshaping can then be considered later.
Note: Results vary from person to person.
2. Surgery to remove foreign material, place a silicone implant, and reshape the chin
Surgery to remove foreign material and place a custom-designed silicone implant in the same procedure to support the chin’s shape and prevent it from becoming sunken or flat. After removing the foreign material, sagging skin and tissue are also removed in the same procedure.

Cheek/chin excision
Correction of liquid filler in the cheeks or chin can be combined with cheek/chin excision to create more defined facial contours and a clearer jawline, resulting in a naturally balanced appearance. The incisions are concealed according to the patient’s anatomy, beneath the chin on both sides. The size of the incisions depends on each patient’s specific concerns and preferences.
