What Is Botox Jaw Slimming?
Botox jaw slimming is a non-surgical technique that reduces the size of the masseter muscles, the chewing muscles located at the back of your jawline. These muscles can become enlarged over time from frequent clenching or teeth grinding, giving the lower face a broader or more square appearance. Jaw slimming Botox works by relaxing these muscles with carefully placed injections, gradually softening the jawline and narrowing facial proportions.
While a defined, square jawline can be considered masculine and desirable in some men, many female patients, especially Asian women, seek a more tapered, feminine shape. For these individuals, masseter reduction with Botox offers a gentle way to reshape the face from square to a more refined oval without surgery or downtime.
The treatment has become increasingly popular for those who prefer subtle yet noticeable changes in facial balance. Patients often notice a difference in facial contour between two and eight weeks after treatment, with results typically lasting 4–6 months.
In addition to its cosmetic benefits, Botox for jawline slimming may help relieve jaw tension or clenching symptoms.
Botox for Square Jaw
Many patients visit our office with the desire for a more feminine, V-shaped jawline. If you feel that the shape of your face is too wide or square at the jaw, our popular Botox jaw reshaping procedure might be right for you. Gaining in popularity, Botox for the jawline is ideal for individuals who would like to reduce the size of their jaws or correct asymmetrical jaw muscles.
Dr. Jane is one of the Bay Area’s top cosmetic dermatologists. She uses Botox to relax and temporarily weaken the masseter muscles, resulting in a slimmer, more appealing lower face shape. A non-surgical jawline reduction in our offices is designed to add harmonious balance to the face without the dangers of surgery. She combines a dermal filler for even better recontouring.

How Does Botox Work?
This minimally invasive procedure is much more straightforward than traditional jaw reduction procedures. It involves virtually painless injections of Botox directly into the masseter muscle near the back of the jaw. The Botox slowly and gently reduces the size of the masseter muscle, reducing the appearance of a strong and square jawline.
One can begin to see the results in about four weeks, and the effects persist for more than one year. Compared to traditional uses of Botox (i.e., between eyebrows and forehead), the effects on the jawline last much longer.
Most patients seem to need no more than 2–3 treatments over several years to maintain the result, and it is reasonable to consider this treatment very long-lasting but not truly permanent.
What Happens During Botox Jaw Reduction Treatment
While many believe the only path to a slimmer jawline is cutting or reshaping the jawbone, our Botox jaw contouring procedure achieves measurable results without incisions or downtime. By safely injecting Botox into specific areas of the jaw muscles, Dr. Jane’s technique blocks the activity of targeted muscles and softens the masseter muscles, resulting in a relaxed jawline.
The single injection method per side of the jaw reaches all five points within the muscle. Your non-surgical jawline treatment is comfortable, quick, and requires no downtime. After your initial Botox jaw reduction, you’ll notice signs of face slimming within 2–8 weeks.
What to Expect During Jawline Reduction Recovery
After your minimally invasive jawline reduction procedure, you may notice tiny red marks at the injection site. These are temporary and typically fade quickly, but they are easily covered with makeup if needed.
For optimal results, refrain from lying down for at least four hours after the treatment. Most patients eat lightly for the first few days after the surgery since the jaw regains its full chewing capacity after ten days.
Botox jaw reduction makes it possible for patients to eat right after the treatment without experiencing any pain. Patients of Dr. Jane will expect to receive 20–40 units on each side to have a smaller lower face. She combines Kybella and/or Ultherapy for the patients who want a slimmer face. Most patients may need a second treatment at six months to one year to maintain their results. The need for any future maintenance treatments depends on each case.
Benefits of Botox Jaw Slimming
Key advantages include:
- Non-surgical alternative to jaw reduction surgery
- Quick treatment, often completed in under 30 minutes
- Minimal discomfort with no need for anesthesia or downtime
- No scarring or invasive recovery process
- Gradual, natural-looking results that enhance facial balance
- May reduce jaw tension or clenching-related symptoms
It makes masseter reduction with Botox an appealing option for individuals who want facial contouring without the extended healing time of surgery.
