Botox Chin Dimple Treatment
Does your chin look dimpled or have a crease running horizontally across it? Many people have chins that appear dimpled — like the surface of an orange — or show a pronounced horizontal crease. In most cases, it’s a genetic trait caused by contraction of the mentalis muscle in the chin. While you can’t change your genetics, there are options to minimize the appearance of chin dimples or creases. Dr. Erez Dayan offers a non-surgical, short Botox chin dimple treatment at Avance Plastic Surgery Institute in Reno/Tahoe, NV.
Smoothing the chin without flattening its natural shape or affecting the smile comes down to precise, anatomically informed dosing — and that precision is where Dr. Erez Dayan excels. A clinical investigator and key opinion leader for Allergan, the maker of Botox, and co-author of the textbook on facial anatomy and injectable safety, he is a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon and Medical Director of Avance Plastic Surgery Institute. He completed the Harvard Plastic Surgery Program — serving as Chief Resident at Massachusetts General Hospital — before an elite aesthetic fellowship at the Dallas Plastic Surgery Institute, where he was one of only two surgeons selected. Botox chin dimple treatment is one of the practice’s Botox treatments.
Restoring Balance to the Chin
An attractive face is a balance of features that blend together harmoniously, and when one element seems oddly shaped, it can detract from an otherwise pleasing appearance. A dimpled chin isn’t the end of the world, but it can leave some people feeling self-conscious — and the same is true of a crease between the lower lip and the base of the chin. Relaxing the chin muscles can smooth away dimples or minimize the appearance of a horizontal crease, improving the overall harmony of the facial features.
“The chin is a small area where precision really shows. Relaxing the mentalis muscle just enough smooths that dimpled, orange-peel texture while keeping the chin’s natural shape and your expressions intact.” — Dr. Erez Dayan
Smoothing Chin Creases and Dimples in Reno/Tahoe
Botox injections use a neurotoxin to block nerve signals to the targeted muscles. For chin dimples and creases, the injections stop the contraction of the mentalis muscle, smoothing the surface of the skin and tissue. The treatment takes only about 15 minutes, with results evident in a few days to a week. In most cases, the effects last three to four months before another treatment is needed to maintain the desired appearance.
