A tight and slim jawline provides a powerful and elegant appearance. When the jaw muscles (masseters) are strongly developed, the face can appear wider or squarer. With a targeted treatment with botulinum toxin the jawline can be subtly refined.
At Xavier Clinics we perform this treatment with a medically sound and precise technology, aimed at both aesthetic refinement and functional complaints such as teeth grinding.
What is a jawline treatment with botulinum toxin?
In this treatment, botulinum toxin is injected into the masseter muscles (chewing muscles). By temporarily relaxing these muscles:
-
Reduces excessive muscle tension
-
Can the jawline appear slimmer?
-
Gradually reduces jaw muscle hypertrophy
-
Can reduce complaints such as teeth grinding
The effect is subtle and develops gradually over several weeks.
Who is this treatment suitable for?
A jawline treatment with botulinum toxin is suitable for:
-
A broad or square jawline
-
Strongly developed chewing muscles
-
Teeth grinding (bruxism)
-
Jaw tension or headache complaints
-
Aesthetic refinement of the lower face
During the consultation we will assess whether botulinum toxin is the right choice or whether another treatment (such as fillers) is more appropriate.
