Masseter (Jawline Slimming)

The masseter muscle, located on the side of the face, plays a significant role in chewing. However, frequent teeth grinding, particularly during sleep, can cause the muscle to enlarge due to constant use, altering the shape of the face.

Jawline slimming is a popular cosmetic treatment that uses Botox to contour the jawline for a more youthful and defined appearance. This non-invasive treatment is suitable for individuals who are bothered by a square or overly-prominent jawline. Let’s explore the details of jawline slimming using Botox, including how it works, how the treatment is administered, and potential side effects.

What is jawline slimming?

Jawline slimming using Botox is a cosmetic treatment that aims to contour the jawline by relaxing the muscles in the masseter, the muscle responsible for chewing. The procedure is designed to create a slimmer and more contoured jawline.

How does it work?

Botox works by blocking the signals that are sent from the nerves to the muscles. When the masseter muscle is injected with Botox, it is temporarily relaxed, causing it to shrink in size. This results in a slimmer and more contoured appearance of the jawline.

Who is a good candidate for jawline slimming?

Good candidates for jawline slimming using Botox are individuals who are bothered by a square or overly-prominent jawline. The treatment is suitable for both men and women.

Who should avoid jawline slimming using Botox?

Jawline slimming using Botox should be avoided by individuals who have an infection in the area of the injection, are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a history of allergic reactions to Botox, or have a neuromuscular disorder.

What are the benefits of jawline slimming using Botox?

The benefits of jawline slimming using Botox include a more defined and youthful jawline, improved facial symmetry, and a more aesthetically pleasing facial appearance.

What is the process of jawline slimming using Botox?

The process of jawline slimming using Botox begins with a consultation with our Pharmacist. During the consultation, the pharmacist will assess your facial structure and determine the appropriate amount of Botox needed for your treatment.

How is the treatment administered?

The treatment is administered through a series of injections into the masseter muscle. The injections are quick and relatively painless, and the entire procedure usually takes around 15 minutes. The treatment is usually well-tolerated, and most patients experience little to no pain during the procedure. However, some patients may experience mild discomfort or a slight stinging sensation at the injection site.

What are the potential side effects of jawline slimming using Botox?

The potential side effects of jawline slimming using Botox include redness, swelling, bruising, and mild pain at the injection site. In rare cases, some patients may experience more severe side effects, such as difficulty chewing, drooping eyelids, or difficulty moving the jaw.
