Botox®

Sometimes dimpling and irregularities in the chin are the result of activation of muscles in the chin, such as the mentalis muscle, that can be treated with botulinum toxin (Botox®, Dysport®, or Xeomin®). This can make the chin appear smoother and less wrinkled.

Bruising and swelling after chin botox injections is minimal but can last 3 to 5 days if present. Patients can return to work and their normal activity immediately following injections.
