Treating Chin Dimples

The Center for Cosmetic Surgery

chin dimplesFew facial features are viewed more subjectively than dimples, especially chin dimples. In fact, if you spend a few minutes browsing the internet, you’ll run across innumerable websites where fans rave on and on about chin dimples. Whose dimple is the biggest? Which celebrity’s “butt chin” is the sexiest? You can rant, you can vote, you can blog about chin dimples, but can you do anything about them? Is there a chin dimple treatment in Denver?

For all of those people out there raving about chin dimples, there are just as many in Colorado who view their dimple as something to be loathed. If you’re one of them, you may have felt fine about it when you were a child and everyone found you and your chin adorable. But now that you’re grown, perhaps your dimple has become a deep and obvious crater. It overshadows your other facial features. It makes you feel self-conscious.

Here are the anatomical facts. A chin with a dimple is also known as a “cleft chin,” as the small depression exists in the bone as well as the skin. If the term reminds you of “cleft palate,” there’s good reason for that. Accepted theory is that the condition results from incomplete joining of the two sides of the jaw as an embryo develops (much like a cleft palate is caused by incomplete fusion of the palate). The resulting groove in the jawbone, called the “symphysis menti,” is then covered with muscle and skin that also register the groove. Chin dimples are hereditary, and they’re more common in men than in women.

If you don’t want to spend another day looking at your chin dimple, Rejuvenate! understands. And we have just the treatment for you. Just  schedule a visit with us today.

BOTOX® Cosmetic for Smoother Skin and a Smoother Chin

To reduce the appearance of a deep chin dimple, we treat our clients with BOTOX® Cosmetic. Our Denver specialists make tiny injections into the mentalis muscle with a fine needle, calming it. Soon, smooth skin will cover your chin as the mentalis muscle relaxes and lies flatter. Any chin creases and lumpiness you may have will also fade.

BOTOX treatments cause very minimal discomfort. It takes effect gradually over the course of a few days and lasts several months.

If your chin dimple bothers you, there’s just no reason to live with it any longer. More popular by the day, BOTOX Cosmetic has proven its effectiveness with other facial wrinkles caused by muscle action, such as crow’s feet, forehead lines, and creases between the brows. Come in and see how it can give you the smooth chin you’ve been wishing for.

Set up your visit to Rejuvenate!, at either of our two offices conveniently located to serve the entire Denver metro area. One is located just outside of Denver in lovely Golden, Colorado immediately off of 6th Ave westbound and the other is located downtown in Cherry Creek, Denver. Give us a call at (303) 278-2600.
