Do you think your jaw is too wide or heavy? Many people feel their jaw is too large for their face and wish that their face had a ‘V’ shape rather than a square or round appearance.
Some complain that their jaw always looks clenched, even when they are relaxed.
If you feel that your silhouette would be improved if your jawline were slimmer or softer, a jaw slimming treatment may be right for you.
Jaw Slimming Treatment
Treating The Jaw
A large or square jaw appearance is often caused by overly developed masseter (chewing) muscles, which add bulk to the lower jaw. Jaw slimming injections work by weakening the chewing muscles.
As these muscles relax, a square or heavy lower jawline attains a softer angle.
Many clients find this treatment makes them look less aggressive or masculine, giving them a softer, more feminine appearance.
