FACIAL SLIMMING AND EXCESSIVE TEETH GRINDING
reveal a relaxed and fresh appearance
We offer a specialised treatment aimed at reducing the width of a broad jaw, resulting in a more gracefully contoured lower face with a slimmer and more feminine jawline. This procedure is particularly effective for individuals with well-defined jaw muscles and a broader facial structure.
The muscles responsible for chewing and biting are known as masseters, and by administering anti-ageing product into these muscles, we can effectively reduce their size, creating a more oval jawline appearance.
It is worth noting that patients who grind their teeth may commonly experience headaches, migraines, jaw tenderness, and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) issues. This may also manifest as soreness in the temple region, facial tenderness, and dental problems. Beyond the aesthetic improvements, the relaxation of the masseter muscle often provides relief from these associated medical conditions, offering a comprehensive approach to both form and function.

What does facial slimming do?
Facial Slimming involve the administration of anti-ageing product into the masseter muscle, which is responsible for jaw clenching and teeth grinding. This treatment helps slim the face by achieving the following:
- Muscle Relaxation: The injected product temporarily relaxes the masseter muscle, reducing its size and activity. This, in turn, diminishes the prominence of the muscle and softens the jawline's angular appearance.
- Jawline Refinement: By reducing the masseter muscle's bulk, the jawline becomes more slender and oval-shaped. This creates a more aesthetically pleasing and balanced facial contour.
- Facial Symmetry: Masseter injections can also correct facial asymmetry caused by an overdeveloped or enlarged masseter muscle, helping to achieve a more harmonious and symmetrical facial appearance.
The treatment not only offers cosmetic benefits by slimming the face but can also provide relief to individuals who experience discomfort and medical issues related to teeth grinding and jaw clenching, as mentioned in the previous responses.
