What it is and how it is done
- Jaw Botox is a treatment that injects botulinum toxin into a well-developed masseter muscle to control excessive muscle movement.
- Over time, the volume of the jaw muscle gradually decreases, which helps soften a face line that looked wide and angular.
- A face can look wide for many reasons besides the masseter, such as jawbone structure, cheek and under-chin fat, and skin elasticity.
- The product is chosen by considering the product used before, the treatment interval, the size of the masseter and the change you want.
- Rather than using one product for everyone, it is best to decide the product and amount by looking at each product and your treatment history.
- It varies by person, but using more than needed or repeating at very short intervals means the possibility of resistance should be considered.
- It is important to check the timing and product of previous treatments and to set an amount and interval that fit your current muscle condition.
- Changes in the jaw muscle generally begin to be felt from about 2 weeks after treatment, and the face line gradually settles over about 6 to 8 weeks.
- Temporary bruising, swelling, stiffness or a feeling of weaker chewing may appear after treatment.
- If the injection point or amount does not match your muscles, asymmetry, sunken cheeks or an unnatural expression may appear. Planning around your facial structure and jaw muscle is needed.
Treatment time and recovery
- The treatment takes about 5 to 10 minutes.
- No anesthesia is used.
- Normal daily activities are generally possible right after treatment.
- The effects may last about 6 months.
