Contour Line Correction: Submental contour can be improved through fillers or surgery, but outcomes may vary depending on individual anatomy and surgical technique.

Combination Therapy

- Dryness and Peeling: Inspect the chin skin for dryness, roughness, or peeling, and monitor for accompanying symptoms like itching or redness.
