Jawline Slimming with Botox.

Botox is an effective treatment for reducing a prominent or asymmetric jaw line caused by enlarged muscles. The muscles along the posterior jaw are used to chew and clench the teeth, and can become enlarged when the teeth are clenched while sleeping.

Teeth Grinding

By injecting small doses of botulinum toxin directly into the masseter muscle (the large muscle that moves the jaw), the muscle is weakened enough to stop involuntary grinding of the teeth and clenching of the jaw. This significantly relaxes the muscle and reduces the wear and tear on the teeth due to grinding.

Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)

Excessive sweating is a deeply distressing medical condition. It can cause physical discomfort, social awkwardness and reduced levels of confidence. Botox is a particularly effective treatment for focal hyperhidrosis. Botulinum toxin injections block the nerve signals responsible for sweating, stopping the sweat glands from producing too much sweat. Retreatment is typically needed in four to six months, as the nerves regenerate. Over time, however, patients can go longer between treatments.

Nefertiti Neck Lift & Platysmal Bands

A Nefertiti lift is a cosmetic procedure performed with botulinum toxin injections in the lower part of your face, jaw, and neck. The Nefertiti lift targets the platysma band of muscles that run vertically from the bottom of the face to your collarbone and is a temporary way to restore a youthful look without surgery. By injecting Botulinum toxin into specific parts of this muscle we are able to lessen lines around the bottom part of the face, smooth dimpled skin on the chin, erase or reduce folds or sagging of the lower part of the face, even out the symmetry of the lower face, jaw, and neck, remove lines on the neck and create a more pronounced definition of the jaw.
