“Chin-tox” for a more youthful appearance
The mouth is not only the prime focal point of the lower face, but also the most dynamic, with forty muscles working overtime to convey our emotions. Also known as chin-tox, wrinkle reduction injections to the chin can help give it a smoother, less dimpled appearance.
Botulinum toxin A is the quickest and simplest treatment available to correct the appearance of dimples (mentalis strain) or wrinkling, as well as crêping of the skin, by relaxing the musculature in the chin area.
Hamilton Skin Clinic and Anti Ageing Clinic Wilston works delicately with specific injection points on the chin and mouth to result in natural results, rather than a “frozen chin”.
Treatment Must-Knows & Instructions
How Do I Prepare For Dimpled Chin Treatment ?
72 Hours Before Treatment
AVOID the use of Ibuprofen, Asprin, Aleve, Fish Oils and Vitamin E Supplements – this helps to prevent bruising
AVOID the use of topical products containing Tretinoin, Retin-A, Retinol, Retinoids, Glycolic Acids, Alpha Hydroxy-Acid or other “Anti-Aging” product
24 Hours Before Treatment
Day of Treatment
Arrive 5 – 10 minutes before your scheduled appointment with a clean face – please do not wear makeup
What to Expect with The Treatment?
- Use a cold compress to reduce swelling or bleeding, if necessary. Ice and over-the-counter medication can be used to reduce any minor side effects. If you do experience these effects, they are easily concealable with makeup.
- AVOID makeup or product application for 24 hours after treatment to help prevent infection
- AVOID exposure to intense heat (sun lamp or sunbathing) and/or intense cold for 24 hours after your wrinkle reduction treatment
- AVOID the use of Ibuprofen, Asprin, Fish Oils and Vitamin E Supplements for 24 hours after your treatment
- AVOID rubbing for your face and any strenuous activities for up to 72-hours post-treatment
Treatment frequency
- Most patients require treatments 3 to 4 times a year for optimal results.
- After several maintenance treatments, your facial muscles being treated begin to respond much quicker and remain trained, thus requiring less frequent treatments.
