You will also find tips and advice for treatments and how to choose a suitable clinic and doctor.

What are face slimming treatments?

If you have a double chin, full cheeks, or an overly wide jaw (muscle), you may be eligible for a face slimming treatment. A face slimming treatment creates a “slimmer” appearance for your face. This is also called a jaw muscle treatment or “masseter Botox” treatment. These treatments are not offered by every clinic and are not suitable for everyone. It is important to get proper advice from an experienced cosmetic doctor. The most accessible face slimming treatment is treating the jaw muscle with Botox. This thins the enlarged jaw muscle and is only effective if the muscle is thickened due to overuse, such as teeth grinding, excessive clenching, or chewing a lot of gum.

Face slimming with Botox

Many people overuse their jaw muscles. This can become a habit or even a tic. The jaw muscle can be relaxed using botulinum toxin. Functionally nothing changes; only the masseter muscle is no longer excessively tensed. The result is a slimmer jaw. Treatment of the jaw muscle with botulinum toxin is effective for an average of 12–16 weeks.

I went in for Masseter Botox and honestly had such a good experience. Dr.Tosin was super welcoming and listened to all my concerns. She explained everything clearly which made me feel really at ease. The injection themselves weren’t painful at all, the whole process was quick. It’s been a week now, I don’t see face slimming yet but I can already feel the difference. The bulge I used to feel from clenching my teeth gone and I no longer experience tightness or pain in my jaw area. It’s helped with my teeth grinding and my TMJ a lot, which is such a relief. Overall, I am really happy with the treatment and grateful for how caring and patient the doctor was throughout👏👍 Show less »
The clinic has a great atmosphere! The staff are super friendly and lovely. The doctor is very skilled—I didn’t feel any pain at all. I tried Botox for face slimming, and the results are amazing. I’ll definitely be back for another treatment!

Before I began, the doctor made sure I fully understood the project and my numerous health prescriptions. she also carefully answered all of my concerns and provided an explanation of the theory and effects of face slimming! applied anesthetic, so there isn't much pain overall; it feels a little sour with face, but overall it feels fine.

3. How do you choose a clinic for face slimming?


Choose a clinic that offers (various types of) face slimming. Do they show before/after photos? Are there doctors who have many years of experience as a cosmetic doctor?

Face slimming double chin

A double chin can be treated by removing fat or by enhancing the chin and jawline. Fat can be removed through procedures like liposuction. Very small incisions are made to inject anesthetic fluid. Once the fluid has absorbed, excess fat is removed using a small cannula.

Fat can also be removed with Belkyra, an enzyme that a doctor can inject to locally dissolve fat. Read everything about the Belkyra treatment here.

In some cases, a double chin can also be treated by using fillers to enhance the chin and jawline. It is often surprising how much of a difference can be made by strategically adding a little volume to the chin and jawline.

Face slimming with Ulthera

Ulthera can also help reduce a double chin. This is currently a popular treatment at many cosmetic clinics. Enter your address to find all clinics that offer Ulthera.

Face slimming cheeks

If you feel you have (too) full cheeks, you may also be a candidate for one of the following treatments. Through a small incision inside the mouth, the fat pocket in the cheek can be removed, making the cheeks slimmer.

Another option is to use fillers to add volume to the cheekbones and/or jawline. This makes the face appear more ‘feminine.’ Fillers are temporarily effective (on average 8–12 months).

Face slimming jaw muscle

Some people are bothered by a prominent jaw muscle. Sometimes the jaw muscles are well-developed due to frequent chewing of gum, while others simply have a natural predisposition for noticeable jaw muscles. Botulinum toxin (Botox is a brand name of botulinum toxin) is a medication that relaxes overactive muscles. When the large jaw muscle (masseter) is relaxed with a Botox treatment, the volume of the jaw muscle noticeably decreases. Functionally, this usually causes no inconvenience.

Best clinic for Face Slimming

Not all clinics and doctors perform all treatments. Some doctors, for example, only use injectables and may not recommend alternative treatments. It is advisable to choose a clinic with a good reputation where doctors have the necessary experience.
