Reduce Chin / Mentalis Size with Botox or Dysport?

Botox and Dysport will paralyze muscle and help promote some atrophy, or decrease in size. This can work on a large chin, assuming that the bulk is truly sue to muscle bulk and not just large bone. Keep in mind that the reduction can take 4-6 months to be seen and may take a few treatments.  Also, injecting into this area may have some slight effect on the fine movement of your mouth. 

Thank you for your question. Neuromodulators like Botox can be injected into the masseter or the mentalis muscles, relaxing them and reducing their size. This treatment should only be performed by an experienced, board-certified injector who has the expertise and precision to achieve a natural result. I encourage you to schedule an in-person assessment to discuss your concerns and goals. Through this meeting, your injector can design a customized treatment plan to meet your needs best.

Neurotoxins works well to give a smoother appearance to the chin by relaxing the muscle. Usually 10-15 units of Botox will be sufficient. The product is in full effect in two weeks and gradually wears off over 3 to 4 months.
