Pebble chin treatment

Service Description

Botox injections smooth out a dimpled "pebble chin" by relaxing the overactive mentalis muscle responsible for the puckering. How It Works • Target muscle: Practitioners inject small amounts of Botox into the mentalis muscle in the lower face. • Mechanism: The treatment stops nerve signals that make the muscle contract too tightly. • Result: Your chin skin stays flat and smooth instead of bunching up when you speak or smile. What to Expect • Timeline: You will see the first changes in 3 to 7 days, with final results visible after two weeks. • Duration: The smooth look lasts about 3 to 6 months before the muscle slowly wakes back up. • Discomfort: The quick pinpricks cause very mild, short-lived discomfort with no downtime needed. Botox is a brand of FDA-approved neuromodulator (botulinum toxin type A) that temporarily relaxes muscles to smooth dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines and crow's feet, by blocking nerve signals. Results typically last 3–4 months, with improvements visible within 2–10 days. Key Details About Botox : - How They Work: They work at the neuromuscular junction, blocking the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that triggers muscle contraction, leading to temporary relaxation and smoothing of the skin. - Common Treatment Areas: Frown lines (11s), forehead lines, and crow's feet. - Duration: Results typically last 3–4 months, but some patients may see results for up to 6 months.
