BOTOX IN THE CHIN
The procedure is performed by injecting botulinum toxin into the chin (chin) muscle.
The procedure is minimally invasive and lasts a maximum of 15 minutes, using a topical anaesthetic.
Botox injection in the chin area can provide numerous benefits, such as:
- Reduction of wrinkles and fine lines: Botox can help diminish the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines in the chin area by blocking the muscle contractions that cause them.
- Improved facial contour: Injecting Botox into the chin area can help define and contour the chin, improving the overall facial appearance.
- Treating "turkey chin": Botox can help reduce "turkey chin" or fine lines and wrinkles that appear in the neck area and give the impression of sagging skin.
- Treating bruxism: Injecting Botox into the jaw muscles can help reduce the involuntary muscle contractions that cause bruxism (teeth grinding), thereby relieving the pain and discomfort associated with the condition.
- Fast results: The results of the procedure are generally visible within a few days and require no recovery time, so the patient can return to normal activities immediately after the procedure.
Botox is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that uses botulinum toxin to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Botox injections in the chin area can help improve the appearance of the chin and neck lines.
The botox chin injection procedure is performed in a doctor’s office by a licensed specialist. Before the procedure, the patient may be given local anaesthetic to minimise discomfort.
The specialist will mark the areas to be treated, then use a small syringe to inject the Botox into the muscles responsible for the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines in the chin area. Botox works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, which reduces contractions and prevents wrinkles from forming.
During the procedure, the patient may feel a slight stinging or burning sensation at the injection site, but discomfort should be minimal. The procedure usually takes between 10 and 30 minutes and the patient can go home immediately after completion.
The results of the procedure are generally visible within a few days and can last up to 3-4 months. After this period, the patient can opt for another Botox injection session to maintain the results obtained.
