What Chin Botox Is

Chin Botox uses small amounts of botulinum toxin injected into the muscles of the chin area to smooth texture, reduce dimpling, and relax overactive muscles that can cause a “pebbled,” tense, or overly prominent chin appearance.

It’s a non-surgical cosmetic injection aimed at refining the look of the chin and lower face without cutting or implants.

What It Targets

✔ Chin Dimples & Texture

If your chin looks bumpy, dimpled, or uneven when talking or smiling, Botox can soften that look by relaxing the muscle responsible for excessive movement.

✔ Mentalis Muscle Overactivity

The mentalis muscle can pull the chin skin upward in an uneven way. Botox relaxes this muscle to smooth the surface.

✔ Jaw Tension / Clenching (adjunct benefit)

Some people with a tight lower face or clenching habits notice that relaxing the chin area also eases tension in related muscles.

What to Expect

 Consultation

Before treatment, you should get:

• Assessment of your chin shape and movement
• Explanation of how many units will be used
• Expected outcome and recovery
• Time to ask questions

 Procedure

• Quick: Usually 5–15 minutes
• Minimal discomfort: Tiny injections in a few spots
• No anesthesia: Typically not needed

 Results & Duration

• Start to show: A few days after treatment
• Full effect: Around 1–2 weeks
• Duration: Typically 3–4 months, sometimes longer depending on muscle activity

Because it’s temporary, maintenance sessions every few months are common for ongoing results.

Effects You Can Expect

 Smoother Chin Surface

Botox reduces muscle pulling that creates bumps or dimples, giving a more even skin texture on the chin.

 Softer Lower Face Movement

The chin won’t look “frozen,” but the muscle activity that causes irregular texture will be less pronounced.

 Balanced Profile

For people with a very active mentalis muscle, relaxing it can subtly improve the lower-face balance and reduce tension-related signs.

Who It’s For

 This treatment is ideal if you:

• Have a dimpled or pebbled chin at rest or with expression
• Notice chin muscle tension or “cobblestone” texture
• Want a non-surgical refinement of the chin area
• Prefer minimal downtime and subtle improvement

It’s not a solution for structural bone prominence or major chin reshape — those are best addressed with surgical options.

Aftercare Tips

To support good results:

✅ Avoid touching or rubbing the chin for the first 24 hours
✅ Stay upright for a few hours after injections
✅ Avoid strenuous exercise and hot environments (sauna, steam) on the day of treatment
