Would Botox work or can the extra fatty chin tissue be removed somehow?
Answer: Chin muscle At your age, botox or dysport would be the way to go to relax the muscle. Another approach, usually employed for older patients with a "witch chin" would be a submental (under the chin) incision and partial removal or tightening of the muscle (which I would not recommend for you).

Answer: Witch chin deformity This problem can be troublesome to treat often less is best. Botox can be used to diminish the activity of the mentalis muscle. Without a true profile photo it is difficult to determine if a reduction genioplasty would be helpful. A small amount of the soft tissue pad can be removed from a submental approach.

Answer: Botox for Over Active Chin Muscle Thank you for sharing your question about your chin. Botox is an excellent solution for the problem you are describing. A small amount of Botox can be injected into the mentalis muscle, which will relax the muscle and offer a nice, smooth, chin when smiling. The effects of Botox last approximately 3-4 months, at which time the procedure can be repeated for sustained results. For more information about Botox to the mentalis, please schedule a consultation with a board-certified specialist. Best of luck, Dr. Kian.

Answer: Botox for chin The mentalis muscle can be quite strong in many individuals. Botox or dysport is great to treat this muscle. Recent studies have shown by treating this area you can even increase your chin profile and improve the appearance of your chin.
