I have a huge prominent chin but most of it seems to be muscle or fat.. can I use botox to soften it? Will it make the chin smaller?
Answer: What you should know about Botox Thank you for your question and photo. While Botox targets an overactive muscle to weaken it and limit its movement, this injectable treatment is unlikely to reduce your chin’s size or make it appear less prominent. You may benefit from dermal fillers to create a more balanced facial shape overall, the results of which can last for up to a year or more. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified injector who can assess your concerns and suggest the best option for you.

Answer: Botox in the chin Hello and thank you for your question. We would always recommend a face to face consult however in this case botox will only reduce the movement of the mentalis muscle in the chin- the main aim to reduce the muscle contraction that can result in uneven skin texture and upward rotation of the chin. We hope that answers your question. Best wishes

Answer: Kybella for Chin Fat Reduction - add Thermage, Ultherapy, Exilis vs. VASER Hi-Def Neck Liposuction w/ InMode FaceTite/AccuTite Kybella is good for dissolving the submental fat under the chin area while contouring the jawline and making the chin more defined, but a combination approach is needed to get the most improvement with non-invasive options. I recommend a combination approach with Thermage, Ultherapy, and Exilis. InMode FaceTite / AccuTite with VASER Neck Liposuction is the best option for contouring and tightening the chin, neck, and jawline area. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer"

Answer: Botox for the chin Botox when used for the chin is to help with the orange peel or dimpled look that some experience due to muscle activity. It is not typically used to make the chin appear less prominent. I've included a video about neuromodulators that I hope you find helpful.

Answer: Chin Botox relaxed the muscles. It is most likely your chin will be the same size since the only area we treat on the chin is the mentalis muscles and the chin is formed by many muscles and fat pads that will be unaffected by botox. Botox can make your chin look slightly longer, but I do not think it will be significant.
