Botox for Face Slimming
No way, Botox can help me look thinner? Tell me more. I've struggled with weight loss and sometimes just feeling better about myself, because I look better does the trick keeping me motivated on my new lifestyle plan.
Facial Slimming without a diet or working out for months.
Yes, it’s true! This treatment is a technique that can help give a more V-shaped face and slimmer profile. Botox (or Dysport) for facial slimming is a popular service for people with a more masculine, square-shaped jawline or chubbier cheeks. This can be the result of having large masseter muscles which cause the face to look rounder and too square. It’s a great option for patients that do not want surgery, but also want a more evenly proportioned facial structure.
How does facial slimming work?
The Botox (or Dysport) injection relaxes the masseter muscle. Over time, the muscle will begin to shrink (or atrophy) because it is not moving and being used.
What is the masseter muscle?
The masseter muscles lie at the sides of our jaw and are responsible for chewing and clenching the jaw. When these muscles are enlarged in a condition called masseter muscle hypertrophy. These bulky muscles can broaden the sides of our faces and make them look wider and square shaped.
How many units of Botox will I need?
We are all about price transparency to help our clients make an informed decision about their self care. Each person’s anatomy is unique and that can cause there to be a range of cosmetic injectables needed for many services. However, for this treatment, the typical range of units needed would be between 30 to 60 units.
Are there any other benefits of this treatment?
Yes! By receiving injections in their masseter muscles, many people experience less teeth grinding and clenching during sleep.
