When can I do heat treatments (Exilis, HIFU & RF) after Jawtox?

After getting Jawtox (Botox in the masseter area), it's generally recommended to wait at least 2 weeks before undergoing heat-based treatments like Exilis, HIFU, or RF. This allows the Botox to fully settle and reduces the risk of it spreading or becoming less effective.
High heat or energy treatments too soon can potentially interfere with the Botox’s placement or effectiveness. After the two-week window, these treatments are usually considered safe if performed carefully by an experienced provider. Always check with your injector to coordinate timing based on your treatment plan.

It is OK to continue these treatments while receiving Botox into your jawline or masters. Typically, we recommend for our patients to wait two weeks in between receiving neurotoxin injections, and ablative treatments or anything that’s going to manipulate the skin and tissues of the face where tox was injected.

Energy based treatments such as Ulthera, OligioX, Potenza, et cetera may be performed in the same day as your "Jawtox" as long as it is performed prior to the injection. If you've had Botox or Dysport for masseter reduction already, then it will not effect the results of the injection to have any of these energy based treatments as soon as 1 week afterwards. The neurotoxin is injected deep into the body of the masseter muscle, at a depth the RF or ultrasound will not penetrate, and it will have already been taken up by the neuromuscular junction long before a week.
