Facial slimming with Botox® (Face Slimming)
A wide or prominent jaw can make the face appear stronger overall. Many patients desire softer, more harmonious contours – often without realizing that the cause lies in the musculature.
Through targeted treatment with botulinum toxin (Botox®), the chewing muscles can be gently relaxed. Over time, the jaw area appears narrower, and the face looks more balanced overall.
