Pebble Chin

Service Description

Does your chin take on a bumpy, uneven texture—similar to an orange peel or a "cobblestone" road—when you speak or make certain facial expressions? This common concern, often called Pebble Chin (or Peau d'orange), is caused by the overactivity of the Mentalis muscle. At LAH Skincare & Aesthetics, we provide a simple and effective Anti-Wrinkle solution to relax this muscle, resulting in a smoother, more contoured, and youthful chin area. What Causes a "Pebble Chin"? The Mentalis muscle is responsible for lifting and wrinkling the skin of the chin. Over time, or due to natural facial habits, this muscle can become hyperactive, leading to: Dimpling & Pitting: The "orange peel" texture that appears when the muscle contracts. Upward Projection: A chin that looks "bunched up" or shorter than it truly is. Deepened Creases: The formation of a deep horizontal line between the lower lip and the chin (the labiomental fold). The Benefits of Treatment By strategically placing a small amount of anti-wrinkle product into the chin, we can achieve: A Flawless Surface: The skin remains smooth and flat, even when you are talking or laughing. Elongated Profile: Relaxing the muscle allows the chin to drop slightly into a more natural, aesthetically pleasing position, often improving the overall jawline profile. Softer Shadowing: Reduces the deep crease above the chin for a more rejuvenated lower face. The LAH Approach The chin is a focal point for facial balance. Lauren uses a precision-led technique to ensure the muscle is relaxed just enough to remove the dimpling while maintaining your natural range of expression.
