Facial Slimming

A slim, sculpted jawline is essential to an attractive facial shape. Many patients covet the universally desired V-shaped contour in the lower face, which telegraphs beauty, femininity, and grace. If you are struggling with an overly prominent masseter muscle and feel that your jawline looks boxy, you may be an excellent candidate for BOTOX injections in downtown New York City. Enlarged masseter muscles can cause self-consciousness and also can indicate teeth grinding, a symptom of temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ). At LM Medical NYC, Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Morgan Rabach delivers highly individualized treatment plans and outcomes that are precise, artful, and satisfying.

What Is Facial Slimming?

Enlarged masseter muscles in the jaw can negatively impact the overall facial shape, leaving patients unhappy with a square or masculine-looking profile. Dr. Rabach in downtown NYC can inject BOTOX to weaken the masseter muscles and reduce their contraction, restoring a slimmer, more streamlined contour that is more feminine and flattering. BOTOX injections can not only improve your appearance, but can also address the effects of jaw clenching and bruxism (teeth grinding), conditions that lead to fatigue, tension, and headaches.

  • Frustrated by a bulky jawline and wide facial shape
  • Looking to restore a more feminine V-shaped contour in the lower face

  • Non-surgical and non-invasive

How to Begin Your Facial Slimming Journey

To get started with facial slimming in downtown NYC, you will first sit down with Dr. Rabach for a comprehensive consultation. This initial session includes: 

  • A detailed medical review and an exploration of previous treatments. Open, transparent answers to all of your questions
  • A skin analysis and physical evaluation 
  • An overview of the treatment’s risks, benefits, downtime, costs, and anticipated results 
  • The formulation of an individualized treatment plan that meets your needs. Information about any add-on procedures, such as dermal fillers or lip augmentation

Once you are approved for the treatment and you decide to move forward, we can schedule your BOTOX injections right away.

What to Expect on the Day of Facial Slimming

On the day of your appointment at our world-class clinic in downtown NYC, we will warmly welcome you and briefly review your treatment plan, addressing any last-minute questions. You will then be placed in a comfortable treatment suite, and your skin will be numbed with a topical anesthetic to maximize comfort and peace of mind. 

Dr. Rabach will then strategically administer BOTOX into the masseter muscles, streamlining the facial shape and restoring elegant, sculpted contours. Most sessions involve 5 to 6 injections directly into the muscles on either side of the jaw. Sessions can be repeated every 3 months for one year, and then every 4 to 6 months once you have achieved your desired results.

Facial Slimming Recovery

One of the biggest advantages of facial slimming with BOTOX for our busy, active patients in downtown NYC is that treatment comes with no downtime or recovery. Men and women in the Manhattan area can immediately resume their normal schedules without missing a beat. 

Minor side effects can include redness, swelling, and soreness at the injection points. These symptoms resolve quickly and can be alleviated by taking over-the-counter painkillers. 

Try to avoid rubbing, touching, or massaging your skin after your appointment, and postpone strenuous exercise for 24 hours. You should also limit exposure to excessive heat and refrain from drinking alcohol for several days after your session.

Combining Facial Slimming with Other Procedures

To maximize your results and help you achieve the refreshed, rejuvenated look you envision, Dr. Rabach can combine facial slimming with other powerful cosmetic solutions, including the following:

Neck Lines Treatment

To treat “tech neck” or prominent vertical neck bands, Dr. Rabach can inject BOTOX to restore a smooth, balanced profile. The treatment is ideal for patients seeking an innovative, non-invasive approach who are not quite ready for a surgical neck lift.

Lip Fillers

Lip fillers are an effective, non-surgical option for enhancing lip volume, suppleness, and radiance. The treatment can also smooth vertical lip lines, increase lip border definition, and sharpen the Cupid’s bow, delivering a youthful, attractive smile.
