Botulinum toxin is a refined neurotoxin which, when injected locally into muscles, causes muscular relaxation. When injected in small quantities into the muscles involved in migraine tension headaches, or the trapezius muscles, this causes the muscles to reduce in size and become less active. As a result, muscle tension is eased. Following the injections, there is a lag period before the effects appear – usually about 3-5 days, reaching the full effects by about day 10-14 post-treatment. When injected into the masseter muscles (for treatment of teeth grinding or jawline slimming), the effects take longer to develop (on average 4-6 weeks) because this muscle is known to be large and strong.
Expertly administered botulinum toxin can help to slim the lower face profile by shrinking the masseter muscles. This can also simultaneously reverse symptoms of teeth grinding and jaw tension.
Botulinum toxin for trapezius muscles is administered in 5 points within the muscle. For masseter muscles (with or without muscle tension due to teeth grinding), it is administered in 5 points within the muscle to achieve a degree of lower facial slimming.
Yes. Botulinum toxin injections are safe to receive with other facial injectable treatments like Hyaluronic Acid Fillers. Masseter botulinum toxin is commonly used to slim the lower face as part of our V-Shape structural enhancement treatment.

For an average patient, the results last 3-4 months and begin to gradually wear off after this period. The majority of patients receive botulinum toxin injections two-three times per year. The length of results and desired frequency of treatment can be influenced by the strength of each individuals’ muscles and lifestyle.
