How do I achieve a V line with Botox? (Photo)

Thank you for your question and for providing photos. When injected into the masseter muscle, Botox should adequately slim your jawline to achieve a more V-like contour. Dermal fillers are also a favorable solution for contouring the jawline and creating an elegant, well-defined appearance. If you’ve been unsatisfied with injectable solutions, you can also consider a microneedling treatment such as Profound RF to encourage your body’s collagen production and provide a lifted, tightened effect on your neck and jaw.
I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced expert injector. They will be able to review your treatment history, discuss your concerns with you, and help you decide on the best course of action.

In general, getting neurotoxin for facial slimming will involve injecting the lower 1/3 of the masseter muscle along the jaw line. This should, over time, reduce the bulk of the muscle and produce facial slimming. However, this will only be along the jaw line and should not have much, if any, pronounced effect on the cheeks. Other things, like weight loss or gain, can accentuate or change these features. Different types of hyaluronic acid or other fillers may be able to help correct these issues.

For a more defined jawline to strengthen your profile (and help prevent the dreaded jawline "jowl" sagging), we use injectable fillers like Revanesse Versa - a filler known to limit swelling and give subtle, soft enhancements - or Radiesse. Using a cannula to limit pain and swelling, we inject on the bone in strategic points to get more lift and shaping, resulting in a more contoured lower face and defined, structured jawline. I would suggest getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer
