Botox is well known, and widely used as a non-invasive anti-aging treatment, used to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Furthermore, Botox has been widely used in medical treatments, for example, for migraines, bruxism (teeth grinding) and hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).
Our genes, or habits we have developed, such as grinding our teeth and clenching our jaw, causes the hypertrophic masseter muscles to develop, making the lower face appear squarer and protruding. For many, this is a feature of their face they quite like. However, for some, it can be unpleasant – particularly if they would prefer a slimmer jawline. In instances where patients are dissatisfied with their jawline, we use Botox as a non-surgical jawline slimming procedure.
The procedure involves of administering Botox into the enlarged jaw muscles, or the masseter. Following the injections, these muscles relax and reduce in size, giving a reduced jawline.
varies per patient
The actual jawline slimming procedure takes between 15-30 minutes. You will also require a consultation to assess suitability. Typically to do both, you should allow approximately 30 minutes.
This can vary from patient to patient, and depends on genetics, age and frequency of prior treatments. Anti wrinkle injections of Botox typically last 4-6 months. Jawline Botox in the masseter muscles can last longer. While the results are ordinarily visible in 2 weeks, it can take longer than this before optimum results are achieved.
This will always be assessed on a case by case basis, and depends on a variety of conditions. During your consultation, your clinician will assess your condition, and determine the number of Botox units required, and also how often you may require the treatment to be repeated.
Ordinarily, patients do not require any topical numbing creams, but we do have this option should you prefer. The needles that are used to administer Botox are very thin, fine needles – similar to insulin needles. Following the treatment, there may be a slight discomfort or adjustment in chewing habits, but this ought to be temporary.
Similar to the number of units required, this will depend on the assessment by your clinician. It will depend on the strength of the muscles, the number of Botox units required to treat the condition, and then the number of treatments that you may require (for future costs). The starting price for Jawline Botox at Omniya Clinic is £450.
