Mentalis muscle:

Chin dimpling to our chins is the result of mentalis muscle raising our lower lip and it can be seen at rest or when we are talking, and it can be present in all ages. Chin dimpling are the lower face lines on chin that occurs specially in lighter colored skin people, or hormonal changes or of people have not taking care of skin with proper skin care and constantly uses of cigarette smoking pollutants. All of these things can be the cause of chin dimpling on lower face specially on a female face when it is going to be aging. They may notice facial wrinkles and lines on chin skin.

Mental crease:

That orange peel appearance gets more apparent because of the loss of the subcutaneous fat and dermal collagen in our chin skin. The contraction of the mentalis muscle causes the crease between our lower lip and chin to deepen. This crease is known as a mental crease. This leads to our chin scrunching in decreasing the length projection and fullness of the soft tissues of our chins. 

Most people don’t see that they are getting vertical lines until they are etched into the skin and make skin loose. So, the same thing can happen to the eye area or smile lines or on forehead. The collagen can also be the biggest reason behind chin dimpling, because less collagen in the skin. When the dermis become thin and you lose collagen, MMPs and collagenase. All these things can eat up your collagen when you get a little older. So, pay proper attention to your lower face and do some prevention treatments to avoid chin dimples.
