Botox & Fillers
Chin Dimple Botox at Dr Chike Clinics in London uses small, precise botulinum toxin injections to target the mentalis muscle beneath the chin. By relaxing an overactive mentalis, the treatment may soften visible dimpling, pebbling or cobblestone texture and reduce a restless or puckered appearance. Typically, four to eight units are used, with the dose assessed individually during consultation. The approach can be considered when chin creasing is not resolved by fillers alone, and dosing can be calibrated to preserve natural proportions where appropriate. Aftercare includes avoiding pressure for 24 hours and intense exercise, alcohol and extreme heat for 48 hours.
About this treatment
Chin Dimple Botox is a focused, non-surgical treatment for chin texture and movement associated with an overactive mentalis muscle. At Dr Chike Clinics, small, precise botulinum toxin injections target the mentalis beneath the chin. Typically, four to eight units are used, but the dose is assessed individually at consultation.

It may suit people with dimpled, pebbled or cobblestone texture across the chin, a restless or puckered chin at rest, or mentalis activity that is noticeable when speaking or smiling. The clinic also describes it for chin creasing that has not been resolved by fillers alone and as suitable for male patients. The intended effect is to soften the appearance created by muscle contraction; it is not a guarantee that every type of crease or texture will change.
After treatment, avoid rubbing or applying pressure to the injection site for at least 24 hours. For 48 hours, avoid intense exercise, alcohol and exposure of the area to extreme heat. The clinic does not specify a results timeline or treatment frequency, so these should be discussed during consultation. An individual assessment is needed to determine the appropriate dose and confirm that the treatment matches your anatomy and goals.
