Chin Botox is a non-surgical aesthetic treatment that targets the mentalis muscle in the chin area. This procedure helps to smooth out dimpling, reduce the appearance of an "orange peel" texture, and improve overall chin symmetry. It's an ideal treatment for those looking to refine the lower face with minimal intervention.

At Cosmo Clinic in Lisbon, chin botulinum toxin is administered by qualified doctors who assess each patient's muscle activity and facial balance before treatment. Effects typically develop over three to five days and last three to four months.

What is chin Botox

Chin Botox is a non-invasive aesthetic medicine treatment that targets the mentalis muscle, the one responsible for the involuntary contractions that create an irregular, dimpled texture on the chin, commonly known as peau d'orange or cobblestone chin. By relaxing this muscle with botulinum toxin type A, the chin regains a smooth, uniform appearance and a more refined lower third of the face.

Who is it for

Well suited to anyone with uneven chin texture, visible dimpling when speaking or concentrating, or mild chin asymmetry. It is not recommended during pregnancy, breastfeeding, in cases of neuromuscular disorders, or with active infection in the treatment area. Eligibility is confirmed during a medical consultation at Cosmo Clinic.

What to expect from the session

During the consultation, our medical team assesses the mentalis muscle both at rest and in motion. Botulinum toxin is then delivered with a microneedle across 2 to 3 precisely placed points on the chin. The session takes around 15 minutes, requires no anaesthesia, and you can return to your normal routine immediately.

Results timeline

First changes become visible between day 3 and day 4 after treatment. Full effect sets in by days 10 to 14, with the chin visibly smoother and the dimpled texture significantly reduced. Average duration is 3 to 6 months, depending on metabolism and the strength of the mentalis muscle.

Aftercare

Avoid bending forward or lying down for the first 4 hours after treatment. For the first 24 hours, skip intense exercise, saunas, and hot baths. During the first week, avoid massaging the treated area, postpone aggressive facial treatments, and apply sunscreen whenever you go outdoors.
