Would Botox (or something else) help reduce the look of my chin? Chin ptosis? (Photo)
December 5, 2023
Asked By:lucyxmarie in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
I am a 25 year old female with no plastic surgery and nothing but lip filler. My whole life I have had this chin that I have, the under side of it maybe getting larger/a bit worse as I’ve gotten older. I’m 5’11, 140-145 pounds and average/slim build. Can Botox or some find of muscle/tissue procedure help this?
