CHIN · ILLUSTRATED 3D RECOVERY
Chin Dimpling Botox (Anti-Wrinkle Injections): before & after and recovery stages
Compare chin puckering at the same effort as the dimpled surface and local movement change.
Also called anti-wrinkle injections for a dimpled chin · orange-peel chin

SUMMARY
What this example shows
Compare the same chin-puckering effort. The illustrated mentalis contraction and dimpled surface soften temporarily, then return. This changes expression, not chin-bone size or filler volume. Resting texture remains; lip function, dose and individual muscle balance are not predicted.
STAGE BY STAGE
Chin Dimpling Botox (Anti-Wrinkle Injections) recovery stages
Chin-puckering reference
The same effort raises the central chin and reveals small dimples.
This illustrates mentalis activity, not a permanent cleft or acne scarring.
Around 1 week: Response developing
Less local bunching appears during the same expression.
General toxin guidance describes onset over days; this is not a chin-specific measured curve.
Around 2 weeks: Softer expression detail
Some movement and resting texture remain while the dimples soften.
The model does not calculate muscle force or lip function.
Around 4 months: Movement returning
The chin-puckering pattern becomes stronger again in this example.
Duration varies; these comparison dates do not set a treatment schedule.

INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES
How recovery can vary
Timing and response
Chin anatomy, muscle activity, product and individual response affect the result. The same fictional dimples stay in place across stages. No filler is added and the jawbone is unchanged.
Longer term
The illustrated effect fades toward baseline. Persistent resting texture or a structural chin cleft needs separate assessment; this preview does not model oral closure or smile balance.
EVIDENCE NOTES
Sources and limitations
- Anatomy & Cell Biology: Dimpled chin and mentalis review
Mentalis overactivity and cobblestone chin. This review supports the treatment distinction, not an individual response or timeline.
- Toxins: Mentalis anatomy study
Anatomical and ultrasound study of the chin muscle and its variation. It does not establish the displayed movement, wrinkle pattern or recovery dates.
- Cleveland Clinic: Botulinum toxin
Delayed onset, fuller effect around 10–14 days, early reactions and gradual return of movement.
- AAD: Botulinum toxin therapy: FAQs
Targeted muscle relaxation, preservation of other expressions and temporary injection reactions.
- ASPS: Botulinum toxin results
Temporary improvement and return of muscle reactions as the effect fades.
