A "cobble chin," or "pebble chin," refers to a chin with a dimpled or uneven appearance caused by overactivity of the mentalis muscle. This muscle is located in the chin and, when overused, can create a puckered or "orange peel" texture on the skin.
Botox for Cobble Chin:
1. Targeted Injection: Botox is injected into the mentalis muscle, which controls the movement of the chin. The goal is to relax this muscle, smoothing out the skin and reducing the dimpled or pebbled appearance.
2. Effect: By reducing muscle activity, the skin over the chin becomes smoother, creating a more even and youthful appearance.
3. Results: The results of Botox for cobble chin typically begin to show in 3 to 7 days, and they last for about 3 to 4 months, after which the treatment can be repeated.
