I went to someone new for botox today. I made the mistake of asking about the dimpling in my chin and she said that a few units would take it away. She injected me with 5 units in the chin. All in one spot. It was the lowest point of my chin. Is there danger in doing 5 units directly in the center of the chin? Im reading some horrible stories about people who have had drooping mouths and trouble speaking after just 4 units in the chin.

Answer: Botox & Chin Dimples Botox can be used to successfully relax the muscles in the chin, gradually smoothing over dimples. Results should be seen in the next five days. Best of luck!

Answer: Botox for chin dimpling Chin dimpling resolves nicely with Botox. It depends on the movement of the muscle to know which points to inject into. I have had at least two patients where they were contemplating a chin implant because their mentalis muscle was in an almost constant contracted position closer to the lips. Strategic Botox relaxed the mentalis muscle and brought it back to its normal resting position...and the patient realized she didn't need a chin lift afterall! In your case, hopefully it will all work out great. Remember you can get a touch up if there continues to be some movement in the mentalis muscle.
