Our doctor will focus the treatment precisely where the three heads of the masseter (jaw) muscle overlap, and at the deep and superficial part of the muscle, which happens to correspond with where the muscle inserts into the bone. 

This is to ensure maximum effect of the botox jaw reduction injections so that you get your long-term jaw and face slimming results.

By reducing the muscle at the point of attachment to the bone, research has shown that your bone can also reduce over time. This gives longer-lasting results without compromise to the strength of the bone.
