I already have a long face and big chin so don’t want to make it appear larger than it is. I just wanted a slimmer face and a smaller lower face as i feel like my chin brings a lot of attention to it. Will the botox make my face look longer and my face more gaunt? bc of my cheekbones. I have added a pic too.

Answer: Elongated face Thank you for question.There are actually 2 questions to address: teeth grinding and elongated face with a prominent chin.It seems your left side of face has a more prominent masseter.And if it so, Botox to left masseter might help for teeth grinding and to create more symmetry to your face.If right side more bothersome, I would advise to use a sleeping mouth guard as one of the best ways to stop grinding teeth.The elongated face: plump up your cheeks: it will create fullness and bring more balance to the face.The prominent chin: Botox to relax the chin, and Botox along the jawline and for platysmal bands in the neck: it will bring more balance to your face.Consult your aesthetic provider for full face assessment, employ step by step plan to achieve your goals.All the best, Dr.Liliya
