Dimpled or Wrinkled Chin Treatment: Causes and Options
A dimpled or wrinkly chin, sometimes described as an orange peel texture, is a common concern caused by muscle activity and changes in skin support over time. It can be visible when speaking, smiling or even at rest, and may make the lower face appear tense or uneven.
At JB Aesthetics, chin concerns are assessed using a doctor-led, anatomy-focused approach. Treatment is planned to smooth chin texture while maintaining natural movement and facial balance, avoiding an overcorrected or heavy appearance.
What Causes a Dimpled or Wrinkly Chin?
Overactivity of the chin muscle, which pulls on the overlying skin
Loss of collagen and skin elasticity with age
Reduced skin thickness in the lower face
Changes in facial structure and soft tissue support
Individual anatomy and genetics
How Is a Dimpled & Wrinkly Chin Assessed?
Treatment planning begins with a detailed consultation and facial assessment.
Chin movement and muscle strength
Whether dimpling is present at rest or only during expression
Lower face balance, profile and structure
Skin quality and thickness
Suitability, risks and realistic outcomes

Treatment selection depends on whether the concern is primarily muscle-driven, related to skin quality, or a combination of both. Not every patient will require the same approach. The focus is always on subtle improvement and maintaining facial harmony.
