I’m a 20 year old female I’ve always had a very round looking face from my chubby cheeks but I do have a strong jawline.I do have TMJ issues so I most probably will already be getting masseter Botox for the medical reasons but I was wondering if it would be enough for the aesthetic reasons of making my face not look so bottom heavy. I am of normal weight and relatively healthy, so it’s not a health issue. I’m not sure what else I can do to help with the heavy look.

Answer: Masseter Botox Hello! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Aesthetic Skin in Winnetka and Chicago. This is a great question. Masseter Botox can be a great option for addressing the roundness of your face, especially if you're already planning to get it for TMJ issues. By relaxing the masseter muscles, this treatment can help slim the jawline and create a more balanced appearance, reducing the bottom-heavy look you're concerned about. Many people notice a subtle contouring effect after the procedure, as it can reduce the prominence of the cheeks over time. In addition to Botox, maintaining a good skincare routine and considering other treatments like dermal fillers in the upper face or even options like cheekbone contouring could further enhance the overall balance of your features. I hope this helps and best of luck!
