What is a Jaw Slimming Injection at Oceanaconte Spa & Clinic?
Are you concerned about facial asymmetry or the appearance of a broad jawline? These concerns can impact the smoothness and aesthetics of your facial profile. Jaw Slimming Injections, through non-surgical cosmetic procedures, offer facial refinement. Unlike surgical methods such as jawbone reduction or facial liposuction, Jaw Slimming Injections involve non-invasive injections, eliminating surgical risks, with zero downtime, and delivering rapid, symmetrical facial transformation.
How does Jaw Slimming Injections work?
Jaw Slimming Injections employ the introduction of Type A Botulinum Toxin into the masseter muscle. This softens and reduces the size of the masseter muscle, promoting a symmetrical and smoother facial contour. Botulinum Toxin operates on the same principle as wrinkle reduction, blocking the transmission of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle movement. The muscle becomes temporarily immobilized, leading to the relaxation and shrinkage of the masseter muscle.
Who is suitable for Jaw Slimming Injections
A broad jawline may result from various factors, including bone structure, fat, and muscle development. Jaw Slimming Injections primarily address an excessively developed masseter muscle that contributes to an enlarged jawline. For jawline concerns due to excessive bone or fat, surgical procedures may be more suitable. Additionally, hyaluronic acid dermal fillers can complement the treatment, enhancing facial contours and harmony.
