Non-Surgical Jaw Correction
What is a Non-Surgical Jaw Correction?
Without the lengthy and painful recovery period of surgery, a liquid Jaw correction can be performed in 30 minutes without any downtime. This nonsurgical approach can offer the appearance of symmetry to the proportions of your face for the look you desire. Heaviness to the jawline occurs with loss of skin laxity and descent of facial fat pads. Enlargement and squaring of the jaw occur from overdeveloped masseter muscles. Fillers offer an option to improve structure to the sagging jaw, while muscle relaxants like Botox soften the masseter for a less masculine look.
Applications:
- Jawline enhancement
- Jawline and Jowl reduction
- Masseter muscle softening
How it Works
After cleaning the treatment area, a topical pain medication is applied. A filler like Voluma or Radiesse is used to improved jawline for the results you desire. When softening the masseter, after mapping the muscle and function, using sterile technique, a series of botox injections are applied.
What to Expect
The procedure can take 30-60 minutes, with no downtime, and minimal pain. Occasional bruising can be seen 24-48 hours post procedure. Like any filler, immediate results can be seen, however usual precautions and care are to be followed as per provider details.
Applying Botox for masseter reduction, it may take 6 months before visible shrinkage of the muscle can be observed. For optimal results, Botox is applied every 4-6 months for 1 year.
