Chin botulinum toxin
Cosmo Clinic Team
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.

FAQ
What is an "orange peel chin"?
It refers to the bumpy, uneven texture caused by overactive chin muscles. Botox helps relax these muscles for a smoother appearance.
How long do results last?
Chin Botox results typically last around 3 to 4 months, depending on muscle activity and individual metabolism.
Can this treatment change my facial expression?
It improves texture without affecting your ability to speak, smile, or express emotions.
Is it suitable for both men and women?
Yes – Chin Botox is effective and safe for anyone looking to improve the contour and texture of the chin area.
Is the treatment painful?
The injections are superficial and use a small volume of product. Most patients describe minimal discomfort. No anaesthetic is typically required for this area.
Is there any downtime?
Only minimal downtime is required. Occasional mild bruising or redness at the injection sites resolves within 24–48 hours. Normal activities can be resumed immediately.
Can chin botox be combined with chin filler?
Yes, and this combination is frequently used. Botox treats the texture and muscle tension; filler addresses projection and symmetry. Your doctor will assess which approach — or combination — is most appropriate for your anatomy.
How quickly will I see results?
The muscle relaxation effect begins within 3–5 days and reaches full effect at approximately 2 weeks. The texture improvement becomes progressively visible during this period.
