Dimpled Chin
Dimpled Chin
Over the years, the loss of volume and the continuous contraction of the muscle of the chin called "mentalis", increases the chances of developing "ears" in this area. When this contraction is maintained over the years, static wrinkles or folds are created on the chin. The easiest way to treat this is by injecting Botox into the muscle, relaxing the contraction, obtaining a more uniform and aesthetically pleasing chin.
Procedure
During the treatment the patient will lay down on the medical chair as comfortable as possible. Anaesthesia is not normally used for toxin injection as it is not a significantly painful procedure. However, depending on the tolerance of the patient, an anaesthetic cream is applied before the procedure. After cleaning the area of the that will be treated, the points where the toxin will be injected are marked with a fine and delicate needle for the greatest possible comfort of the patient.
Aftercare and Results
The results can be seen after the third - fourth day, where more tension will be noticed at the beginning in the infiltrated areas and therefore it will be more difficult to form the wrinkle when contracting the muscles. They may appear "purple" and have some swelling, however this rarely occurs. After 15 days the toxin review will be carried out to correct the details and achieve the best possible result. The duration of the treatment varies between 4 - 6 months depending on the metabolism of each patient.
