What Is A Dimpled Chin?

A dimpled chin,  often referred to as “pebble chin,” “cobblestone chin,” or “orange peel chin,” is a chin with those little indentations or wrinkles that appear often with movement. They’re caused by an overactive mentalis muscle, which can create a puckered appearance. While some wear their chin dimples with pride, others seek ways to soften these features for a smoother chin contour. The chin dimples we treat with Botox are not to be confused with the cleft chin which is a natural indentation in the chin often present early in life. ​

Botox for Chin Dimples: How Does It Work?

Enter Botox, the fairy godmother of the cosmetic world! When injected into the mentalis muscle, Botox relaxes it, reducing the appearance of dimples and wrinkles. This results in a smoother, more refined chin. The procedure is quick, minimally invasive, and typically requires no downtime. Other neuromodulators, such as Dysport and Xeomin, work similarly and can also be used to achieve these results. And in some cases filler can improve the look of chin dimples. ​

Is Botox for Dimpled Chin Covered by Insurance?

Chin Botox is a cosmetic treatment so it will not be covered by insurance. The cost of chin Botox can vary based on location, provider expertise, and the number of units required. It’s always best to consult with your chosen provider for an accurate estimate tailored to your needs.​
