Botox Treatment for “Orange Peel” Chin

What Is Orange Peel Chin?

“Orange peel chin” refers to a bumpy, dimpled appearance of the skin on the chin. This condition is usually caused by repeated overuse of the mentalis muscle located in the lower part of the face, right under the lower lip. Over time, this area begins to lose elasticity and firmness, and the constant contraction of the muscle creates dimples in the chin that resemble the texture of an orange peel.

Why Does This Happen?

In a natural, youthful face, the muscle contractions occur only when needed and remain relaxed most of the time. But with age, and due to the gradual weakening of the skin, the mentalis muscle becomes constantly contracted—even when we are not speaking or moving. This constant contraction creates a “puckered” look in the chin area, which is perceived as unbalanced or tense in the overall facial appearance.

How Can Botox Help?

Botox is a natural protein that temporarily blocks the nerve signal to the muscle. When injected into the chin, it reduces the hyperactivity of the mentalis muscle and allows it to relax. The result is a smoother and more even chin, giving the face a softer and more balanced look.

Who Is the Treatment Suitable For?

The treatment is suitable for people who:

  • Experience a dimpled chin during speaking.
  • Constantly contract the chin muscle, even at rest.
  • Notice their chin has become flatter or collapsed due to age.

How Is the Procedure Performed?

Botulinum toxin is injected into specific points in the chin. The treatment is very short and usually takes just a few minutes. Most people return to their daily activities immediately after the procedure.

When Are Results Visible?

The effect of Botox begins to appear about 5 days after the injection, and final results are usually seen after two weeks. A follow-up appointment is typically scheduled after this period to assess the results and make any necessary corrections.

How Long Do the Results Last?

The effect of Botox for orange peel chin typically lasts between 3 to 6 months. With consistent treatments, the effect may last longer.

Botox for Orange Peel Chin – Summary

This is a very effective and non-invasive treatment that improves the appearance of the chin and the entire lower face. It is especially recommended for people who suffer from an overactive mentalis muscle that is constantly contracted.
