Beauticians always study and suggest different styles according to your face shape. There are certain shapes that suit you and certain that make you look even more appealing. Although beauticians can suggest what best suits your face, there is much more that you can do if you want to get that desired shape. Don’t hold. BOTOX® can do wonders for you.
If you have a square or a rectangular jaw shape, resulting in similar shape of the face – and you dream to have a slimmer looking and almost almond shaped face, read on. You will learn how BOTOX® has come up with a procedure that has amazing and lasting results.
BOTOX® is a protein derived from botulism toxin. To treat the square jaw, one injection of BOTOX® is injected on each side of the jaw. This weakens that muscle and thus the jaw slowly gets a slimmer shape. This lasts for six months and more and can be extended if you avoid chewing nuts, hard foods and steaks and ice.
The quantity of BOTOX® varies from person to person and according to the person’s preferences. This avoids any unnecessary top-ups in the future and any repeat injection pain as well.
Bruxism
BOTOX® is very helpful in treating patients suffering from Bruxism – a condition where a person grinds his teeth and clenches his jaw. With this kind of activity, what happens is that the muscles of masseter become very strong and big. This makes the jawline and the complete faceline appear squarish. To top this, with small facial features of Asians, the square jaw becomes even more visible.
Botox helps reduce headaches and temporo-mandibular joint (TMJ) aching. The injections actually reduce the strength of the muscles of masseter that causes bruxism. This reduces the teeth grinding significantly. There will be reduced pain and inconvenience of bruxism with just two injections.
With the traditional approach of treating bruxism, people had to use mouth guards that would soften the impact of clenching. Botox has made the treatment more effective and almost painless.
Evidences also claim that BOTOX® leads to some bone remodelling making the bony angle of the jaws reduce in size. This makes the changes permanent. Why not BOTOX® then?
