What is Jawline slimming injection?

Jaw slimming injections typically refer to the use of botulinum toxin (commonly known as Massester botox) to reduce the size of the masseter muscles, which are responsible for chewing. By injecting Botox into these muscles, their activity can be temporarily inhibited, leading to a reduction in size over time. This process results in a slimmer and more defined jawline appearance.

The procedure involves injecting Botox directly into specific points along the masseter muscles, usually on both sides of the jaw. The number of injections and the amount of Botox used will vary based on factors such as the individual's anatomy, muscle size, and desired results. Patients may notice a gradual change in the shape of their jawline as the treatment takes effect, typically over a few weeks. The effects can last several months, after which repeat treatments may be necessary to maintain the desired appearance.
