Understanding Chin Dimples and Orange Peel Texture

Chin dimples and “orange peel” texture often result from repetitive muscle contractions, genetics, or age-related volume loss. Overactive mentalis muscle activity pulls the skin inward, creating a puckered or bumpy appearance. In some cases, fat loss or bone structure plays a role, emphasizing dimples even more.

Benefits of Chin Dimple Treatment

Correcting chin dimpling not only improves facial aesthetics but also boosts self-confidence. Treatments are quick, minimally invasive, and require little to no downtime. The smoother chin contours lead to a more balanced, youthful appearance that enhances your overall look.

We use neuromodulators like Botox to relax the overactive mentalis muscle, preventing the contraction that causes dimples. For deeper creases or volume issues, we may use hyaluronic acid-based fillers to plump and smooth the chin surface, effectively softening the look.

Botox vs. Fillers for Chin Augmentation: What’s the Difference?

While both Botox and dermal fillers can be used for chin enhancement, they serve very different purposes. Botox works by relaxing the mentalis muscle, which can smooth out dimpling or an “orange peel” texture on the chin. It’s ideal for patients looking to refine the surface and reduce unwanted muscle activity. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, are used to add volume, shape, and projection to the chin, helping to create a more balanced facial profile. At Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre in Edmonton, we often combine both treatments for a comprehensive, natural-looking chin augmentation that improves both contour and skin texture.
