For a jaw Botox consultation, in what order are masseter muscle size and chewing function checked?
I am asking this question because I am curious about what needs to be checked before receiving a jaw Botox consultation at Maypure. Even if the goal is the same—to refine the jawline—it seems the consultation will vary depending on the size of the masseter muscles, the shape of the bone, and the ratio of skin to fat. Rather than judging whether Botox is appropriate based solely on the contours visible in photos, is it necessary to first examine the muscles directly when the teeth are closed?
In particular, I would like to know how chewing function is assessed, in addition to cosmetic changes. Would it be helpful to organize information before the consultation, such as whether I have a habit of chewing on one side, frequently eat tough foods, or am currently undergoing dental treatment? I am also curious about the criteria I can be explained for determining the appropriate dosage and injection site for me.
If I decide to proceed with the procedure, I would like to hear first how functional discomfort is assessed, rather than how quickly my jawline will change. Could you provide specific guidance on how long I should expect to see results if I experience difficulty chewing or notice asymmetry when smiling, and in what situations I should contact you immediately?
I would also like to inquire about how to schedule the follow-up consultation to check muscle changes and function, so that I do not decide whether to have additional injections too early after the first procedure. Rather than booking a fixed number of sessions in advance, I would like to receive an explanation of the cases where sessions can be postponed based on the examination results, along with the total cost.
