Please check if I qualify for salivary gland Botox.
2026.07.19 20:47
I was worried because the area under my ears and chin was always swollen and looked thick as if I had gained weight, and I was told that this might not just be simple fat but could be due to salivary gland enlargement.
I looked it up online and found that Botox is effective for reducing salivary gland muscles, but I would like to know exactly what symptoms qualify someone for this treatment. Can people who experience stiffness or swelling around their jaw when eating also see improvement through this procedure? I am also curious if the injection site or mechanism is significantly different from jaw Botox.
I am under a lot of stress because my face looks wide every time I look in the mirror, so I am seeking expert advice on whether I can expect my face to become smaller if I receive this Botox treatment.

- 02CommentsI also got a consultation because I was told I looked tired due to defined lines under my cheekbones when I was expressionless. They told me that nasolabial folds need to be considered in conjunction with cheek hollowing or sagging. Since Botox alone might not solve the problem, make sure to ask about concerns regarding facial movements during your consultation. As someone who had a reality check to see if massages could smooth them out, I think it's faster to just see a professional.400026.11.04
- 03CommentsSince it is common for only one side of the masticatory muscle to develop more due to habits, I think knowing about my chewing habits first will be very helpful for the consultation! You won't regret it if you discuss during the consultation whether square jaw Botox and fine wrinkle management above the jawline can be done together, as well as the duration of the effects.310026.11.04
- 01CommentsSince fillers are an injection procedure, bruising and swelling may last for about a week!820026.11.01
- 02CommentsI think it is a really prudent and good attitude to consider movement discomfort first rather than deciding based solely on the results! If you ask about movement during meals and monitoring options during the consultation, you won't regret it.480026.11.03
- 03CommentsSince wrinkles around the mouth are in an area that moves a lot when speaking or smiling, I imagine you are most concerned about whether your facial expressions will look natural after the procedure. The choice between Botox and fillers depends on the cause of the wrinkles, so I recommend consulting with a doctor to compare recovery times and lasting effects.610026.10.30
- 01CommentsGetting forehead fillers definitely has a great effect on improving wrinkles. I recommend getting Botox at the same time.1330026.10.12
- 02CommentsIf you fill in about 3 to 5cc evenly, focusing on the sunken areas, it will become plump without any bumps.730026.10.12
- 03CommentsIt stings slightly during the procedure, and the effects usually last 3 to 6 months. If you get it regularly before wrinkles settle, the results will last longer.1000026.10.12
