About Jawline Slimming
Normal activities, like chewing, as well as grinding and clenching the teeth (bruxism) can cause the masseter muscles in the jaw to become inflamed. Over time, the inflammation may increase the size of the muscle and alter the shape of the jawline. The experienced team at Refine Medical Spa in Southlake, TX offers jawline slimming treatments with BOTOX injections to reduce the size of the masseter muscles for jaw contouring without surgery. The BOTOX injections temporarily relax the muscles so the jawline is softened for a smoother, less square appearance. Patients in the Southlake area who want to correct a large or square jawline without surgery can schedule a consultation to learn more about jawline slimming at Refine Medical Spa.

Ideal Candidates
Nonsurgical jawline slimming can help patients who want a softer or more even appearance in their lower face. A prominent jawline may be caused by jaw muscles that have become inflamed and enlarged by grinding or clenching. Enlarged jaw muscles may also be a side effect of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder. This can create a sharp contour to develop that alters the overall shape of the face. BOTOX injections can help soften the jawline by temporarily relaxing the jaw muscles for a slimmer, smoother shape.
What to Expect
After a consultation to create a custom treatment plan, patients will receive their BOTOX injections in one of our private procedure rooms. The injector may apply a numbing cream before cleansing the jawline to prepare for the treatment. Once the patient is ready, the team member will make several small injections of BOTOX along the jawline. After the injection, pressure will be applied to the treatment sites before the patient is allowed to leave and resume normal activities. Patients may have some redness and swelling for several days after their treatment that should resolve on its own.
Anticipated Results
It may take 6 – 8 weeks before patients see visible improvements from their BOTOX treatment as their jawline begins to soften. BOTOX injections typically reduce the size of the jaw for 6 – 8 months, as the treatment softens and relaxes the jaw muscles. Patients should talk to their injector about creating an ongoing treatment plan, including when to schedule touch-up injections.
