I have a dimmer similar to this one.
There are no screws visible from the front. Looking at it from the side there appears to be two face plates stacked on top of each other. I can fit my screwdriver between the two and between the last one and the wall. Gentle prying with a screwdriver doesn't seem to work.
How can I remove the cover plate?

There are screws behind the front cover plate that hold the back cover plate to the junction box. The front plate snaps into place.
You can see from the diagram that there should be a small indentation and a tab inside of this. If you push the tab in gently with a flat head screwdriver, then you can just pull the front plate off exposing the screws for the back plate.
