Botox for Chin Dimpling?
I have several deep dimples in my chin, and I've heard Botox could get rid of them. What do you think?

Chin Dimpling
This is an area where Botox and Dysport work very well. The even dispersion of Dysport makes it my preferred product in this area. the results are impressive and patients have always been very satisfied with these treatments.... it is also cost effective since units used are minimal

Botox great in the chin
Botox is a great way to relax lines and dimples in the chin caused by hyperactive muscles, resulting in a smoother, fuller chin area. Botox relaxation in the chin can also help acne scars that might be accentuated by the muscle action in the chin. Botox is an easy treatment and low doses are used in the chin.

Botox does great for chin dimpling
Multiple tiny injections of Botox across the chin does very nice to smooth out the dimpling for about $300, and the results last up to 3-4 months.

Botox and Dysport remove chin dimples
This question is pretty straight foward as evidenced by all the MD answers, Botox and Dysport work great for chin dimpling and sometimes creases in the chin. They relax the muscle that we all have in our chin. It lasts for about 3-4 months.

Botox and chin dimpling
In select cases, botox can soften a dimpled chin, typically with minimal amount of units.

Botox and the Chin
Botox in small doses can help alleviate the indentations of the chin. However, it is not for all patients and needs careful thought before proceeding.

Botox works well for chin dimples
Chin dimples are caused by action of the muscle mentalis on the skin. Botox works very well by relaxing this ansd by making the chin surface smoother.

Botox for deep chin dimples
Very low dose Botox can be very effective for the undulating effect that can occur on the chin related to mentalis muscle function. If you are more concerned about a line or chin deep groove, use of a filler or volumizing agent may be more appropriate.

Botox for chin dimpling
Chin dimpling, or “marbled chin” is very effectively treated with 2-3 injections of low-dose botulinum toxin. As with all botulinum treatments, the effects are temporary, but quite effective.

Botox or Dysport can help but other treatments may be necessary
Mild dimpling of the skin overlying the chin can be helped with Botox/Dysport to relax the mentalis muscle. Deeper dimpling may benefit from filler ( like Perlane or Juvederm) or even laser skin resurfacing. It may be necessary to do more than one treatment if the dimples are as deep as you describe.
Good Luck!

Chin dimpels and botox
Botulinum A (Botox and Dysport) relax the Mentalis muscle which when constracted, will dimple the chin. Dimpling is often more frequent in patients who have acne scars on their chin. If scars are a component, Botox/Dysport can be supplemented with silicone injection into the scars for a longer lasting result.

Botox for chin dimpling
Botox can be very helpful in reducing dimpling of the chin. This works by relaxing the muscles which are contributing to the fold. In some cases, a small amount of filler in addition to Botox will completely smooth out that line. Good luck, /nsn.

Botox is great for improving chin dimpling
What you have heard about Botox helping chin dimpling is correct. Dysport works similarly well and may have more long lasting results. For deep dimpling you will likely need a filler in addition to the Botox or Dysport for best results.
Good Luck!

Botox for chin dimpling
It depends on whether the dimples are genetically present, i.e. present even in your youth or young adulthood, or have developed over years of chin muscle use. Botox does work well for the latter. It is also effective in correcting the skin pitting (orange peel skin) that occurs with age on the chin. Good luck!

Botox works for chin dimples
Hi,
As others have mentioned, Botox and Dysport can be highly effective in treating chin dimples, provided they are dynamic lines. If the lines do not change with changes in expression, they may be the results of dermal scarring, and could be better treated with injectable fillers.
Your best bet is consultation with a physician who is an experienced injector of Botox and fillers. Best of luck!

Botox for chin dimpling
Botox for chin dimpling can be easily done. It is only good for animation lines. If it is a dimple from a dermal depression, it will not be treated successfully by botox.

Botox for chin dimpling
As other doctors noted, Botox is a great treatment for chin dimpling, provided, however, it is not caused by scarring. It will not work for deep scars. Restylane will be a much better product for these, and frequently, we use it in conjunction with Botox as well.

Botox for chin wrinkles
Botox is great for this, but the effects will only last about 3 months. Dysport is another botulinum toxin that may actually last longer than Botox and some offices probably offer Dysport at a cheaper price than Botox. Good luck!

Botox for the Chin
Botox works well for chin dimples or wrinkling. However, make sure that you are being injected by an experienced injector. Too much Botox around the mouth can lead to abnormal function and look of the mouth and lips. Good luck.

Botox for "Peach Pit" chin
Botox certainly can be used to relax the muscles around the chin which give you that "peach pit" appearance. The use of Botox for this indication is "off-label" so insure that you see an experienced dermatologist or plastic surgeon for this procedure.

Botox works great for chin dimpling!
Botox does work very well for those with chin dimples. I would say these are some of the happiest botox patients, because otherwise there is very little that you can do from a cosmetic standpoint to address this concern. Typically, the dosing is less than for other areas of the face, such as the forehead. Of course, this is patient dependent. As an aside, most patients note that they have less tension in their jaw after their treatment.

Fantastic results with Botox for chin dimpling
Chin dimpling that occurs in that area is due to an overactive muscle. For some that is quite apparent. Botox helps relax that muscle and a couple of injection in the area of the chin can help get rid of the dimpling in a matter if few days with results that can last for 3-4 months. The ibjector, however, should be aware of the anatomy in that area as there are other small muscle that pull the lips down for which the Botox can diffuse to. Best results are achieved by injecting conervatively...

Botox works well for chin dimpling
We have had good luck with 6 to 12 units of Botox in the mentalis are for an overactive muscle. This is one of the "off label" uses of Botox. It works, but make sure your doctor has experience in using Botox in this area, and make sure you have discussed any possible side effects of using it in this area.

Botox works very well for the chin
The dimples are caused by an overactive mentalis muscle. This is particularly a problem after some chin augmentation procedures. We have found Botox very helpful . We actually like to use Botox as a pre-op treatment before augmenting someone's chin.

Botox Great for Chin Dimpling
Botox can relax the chin muscle which usually causes the dimpling. It works very well. If you keep doing it regularly the muscle eventually weakens and you will have very little dimpling.
