Some people think it's cute and others can’t stand their dimpled or creased chin. In the cosmetic industry, a dimpled chin is also referred to as “chin-ulite” - in other words, cellulite on your chin. Chin dimples are often a result of genetics, or they can develop over the years from repetitive facial expressions.
Our skilled Doctors and Cosmetic Injector Nurses use anti-wrinkle injections in the chin area to relax the muscles in that area which has caused the chin to form creases and dimples.
Cocoon Spa and Medical Aesthetics Adelaide offer premium anti-wrinkle injections to help you achieve a smoother chin area, which can help rejuvenate and soften your facial expression.
