Botox for face slimming
Face slimming through botox is a cosmetic treatment that visually narrows the face without surgery. The technique is often used for people with a wider or more angular jawline due to thickened masseter muscles. By injecting Botox into these muscles, the muscle gradually relaxes and its volume decreases. This makes the face slimmer and creates a softer, more V-shaped facial contour. This is what we call face slimming.
Benefits of face slimming with botox:
- Fast and effective volume reduction at the jaws.
- Also offers solutions for increased muscle tension or teeth gr inding and/or clenching
- Short treatment (15 minutes) with no recovery time.
- Performed by an experienced physician.

The effect of botox in facial slimming
Botox relaxes the muscles responsible for The movement your chewing muscles make, such as when eating or clenching your teeth together. By injecting small amounts of botox, we block the signals of the nerves visit thethem muscles, causing the muscle to relax and decrease in volume because it is used less intensively. As a result, the face looks slimmer. The treatment is especially effective in people with tense or highly active jaw muscles, such as those with teeth grinding or clenching.
The first effects of a facial slimming treatment are visible after 2 weeks. However, results gradually become more visible as the muscle is used less intensively and therefore decreases in volume. The result is optimal after 6 to 8 weeks.

Who is face slimming suitable for?
Botox for a slimmer face is especially suitable when you have very active chewing muscles. This is often the case when you grind or clench teeth, but can also be the case when you don't.
Regular touch-ups help to relax muscles for longer periods of time and prevent them from becoming overactive and increasing in volume again.
Can I still chew after botox?
Yes, that is, of course, still quite possible. We make sure that the chewing muscles are no longer overactive, but do not paralyze them. So you can continue to move as you always do and will not notice much of the reduced muscle activity yourself.
However, you will notice that you will experience less tension in the jaws, teeth clenching/grinding, and headaches may also be reduced.
