What is V-Shape Botox Injection?
Botulinum toxin injection is a medical treatment that is specially used to help relax facial muscles and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This is a non-surgical treatment that helps to alter your appearance with little to no downtime after just 1 session.
The most common use of Botulinum toxin is for the cosmetic treatment of fine lines and wrinkles – often the most telling sign of age. Wrinkles and fine lines are caused by changes in the skin, around areas where muscles are overactive, for example, around the eyes and mouth.
Unlike the typical Botox procedure, this V-Shape Botox Injection treatment aims to create a V-shaped facial structure by targeting the masseter muscle as the injection site (The masseter muscle is located in the cheek area and is used in chewing food).
How It Works
Botulinum Toxin is a naturally occurring protein derived from the bacterium Clostridium Botulinum. The amount of toxin used in treatments is minimal and extremely safe.
This procedure also focuses on helping with bruxism. Bruxism is a condition in which someone grinds, gnashes, or clenches their teeth. If you have bruxism, you may unconsciously clench your teeth when you're awake (awake bruxism) or during sleep (sleep bruxism). In some cases, this situation can cause headaches. When the muscles are repetitively used, the muscles can expand and this will cause your jawline to appear bigger, and your face will look more square. In order to reduce the size of the jawline, the masseter muscle should be relaxed so that it can shrink in size.
