Botox will not reduce the size of your chin. The most effective solution to reduce your chin would be to have a surgical procedure. Consultation with an experienced plastic surgeon would be best to determine the potential satisfaction from the procedure.

Botox is neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes muscles. It will not reduce your chin size. Botox can be injected into the mentalis muscle to temporarily soften the appearance of a puckered chin but will not change it's size.
While you can enhance or make the chin bigger nonsurgically, reducing the size of the chin nonsurgically is not possible. A genioplasty to shorten your chin is the most likely solution for you.

Potentially, if the grooves on the side of the chin are deep, then facial fillers may help to smooth the transition from chin to jaw. It may make your lower face appear wider and rounder. A consultation with an examination and photo analysis is necessary to determine what options are appropriate for you. And it may be appropriate to do nothing. Safety comes first.
