But before diving in, read the detailed guide:

What is chin botox?

According to Dr. Mahnoor:

“A cosmetic procedure in which a botulinum toxin is injected into the mentalis muscle of the chin to relax it, resulting in a smoother appearance, reduced dimpling (orange-peel texture), and softened wrinkles.”

How does chin Botox work?

Your brain sends signals to the chin muscle through a chemical messenger called acetylcholine. This compound is released at the point where the nerve and muscle meet. When acetylcholine binds to the receptors on the muscle, it triggers the muscle to contract, which, in the case of the chin, creates dimples, creases, or tension in the lower face.

When Botulinum toxin type A (Botox) is injected into the mentalis muscle, it blocks the release of acetylcholine. Without this chemical signal, the muscle is unable to contract with its usual strength. Instead, it remains more relaxed. This process does not cause permanent damage to the muscle or the nerves; it simply interrupts the communication between them for a limited period of time.

The visible effect is a smoother skin surface over the chin. Wrinkles and dimples soften, the orange-peel texture fades, and the lower face appears more balanced and youthful.

It usually lasts for 3-4 months. But if you follow proper aftercare instructions and maintain the regular treatments (every year, 3-4 times), then this increases the longevity.
