Jawline

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.

Consultation with the doctor

Before all treatments, a consultation is scheduled. During this consultation, the doctor will listen to your wishes and explore the options available to achieve them. The doctor will thoroughly inform you about the pre- and aftercare, the expected results, any risks, and the recovery process for the chosen treatment.

The treatment

Once you've chosen to undergo treatment with us, we'll ask you to complete a medical questionnaire and sign a treatment agreement beforehand. If you take a lot of medication, please bring your medication list to your appointment.

Photos will be taken of you both before and after the treatment for your medical records. In some cases, the skin is locally anesthetized with a numbing cream or anesthetic solution before the treatment.

Aftercare

After the treatment, you will receive an aftercare form by email. You do not need to stay at the clinic and can go home immediately. It is common for the skin to be red and swollen after the treatment, and sometimes some bruising may occur. These side effects will disappear on their own. It is important that you cool the treated area well with the cool pack you received, if advised. If you experience severe bruising, we recommend applying Arnica cream to the treated area.

It is recommended that you avoid applying makeup to the treated areas for the first four hours after treatment. Exposure to intense heat (sun, sauna, or tanning bed) is also discouraged for one week after treatment. We advise against having a facial for two weeks after treatment. You can assess the final result after two weeks.

If you have any questions about your recovery, please feel free to contact us.

Risks

The risk of complications is very small. As with any procedure, there is a small risk of infection or allergy.
