Is there a non invasive permanent procedure for chin augmentation?

There are longer-lasting filler options, but they carry risks that last longer as well. There is a chance your body will not agree with the fillers and it causes a reaction. Also, if the person administering the filler isn't skilled, your results may not be desirable.

All said, longer-lasting hyaluronic fillers are available, with the first filler lasting about a year and the second fill lasting even longer. That is the safest, most predictable option without surgery. By the way, a chin implant can be done while you're awake, and it is reversible if you don’t like it.

The only permanent filler would be silicone injections; however, there are considerable risks associated with silicone being injected even when done by someone with a lot of experience. The best permanent result is obtained by surgery.

Most fillers are FDA approved to last up to 12 months so I'm not sure why someone told you 3? Botox needs to be reinjected more often but not fillers. I would suggest going to someone who ONLY injects and who is an MD. Then you can get a good plan together and discuss options. Unfortunately it sounds like you didn't get great advice this time!!
