Bring these questions
- Which of the areas I am interested in suit treatment, and are any of my concerns not muscle-related?
- Which product would you use, and why is that choice right for my areas?
- What should I avoid before a flight or event, and how might bruising show in photos?
How areas are mapped
On the face, the physician may assess the forehead, around the eyes, between the brows, around the mouth and the jaw muscle. On the body, the trapezius and calves can be discussed. Several areas can be considered in one visit, but only suitable ones are treated.
What the evidence covers
Published research the clinic cites covers the jaw muscle only, in a small group, with a preparation and dose that do not convert to other products. It does not establish a universal dose or schedule, or results for other areas. Expectations are set individually.
When another approach fits
Fullness along the jaw that comes from fat rather than muscle may suit InMode instead. Concerns about lip or ear shape relate to filler rather than muscle relaxation. The physician explains which mechanism matches what you see in the mirror.
Recovery and travel
The injection itself is brief, usually within ten minutes. Temporary redness, small bumps at injection points or bruising can occur, varying by person and area. A fine needle is not an incision, but it does not guarantee an invisible recovery, so confirm timing before travel or events.
A source to discuss
A small trial in women with enlarged jaw muscles found changes in muscle size after botulinum toxin, while repeated treatment also affected muscle function, so it does not establish a universal dose or schedule.
Enlarged jaw muscle (masseter) only. It does not cover the forehead, the eye area, between the brows, around the mouth, the shoulders, the calves, pores or teeth grinding, and it does not establish a dose or a schedule for the products priced on this page.
A randomized triple-blinded study in 26 women using abobotulinumtoxinA at 75 units per masseter, a preparation and dose that do not convert to the products listed here. The first treatment was not placebo-controlled, and masticatory performance did not differ significantly between the repeat-treatment groups.
