Does chin Botox work even for people who habitually tense their chin?

턱끝 보톡스는 평소 힘주는 습관이 있는 사람도 효과를 느끼나요?

I don't really notice it when I'm still, but it keeps bothering me that my chin looks bumpy when I talk or take pictures because I tense up.

I used to think it was just a facial habit, but after watching recent footage, I realized I tense my chin more often than I thought. So, I am looking into chin Botox.

What I'm wondering is whether getting Botox is enough, or if I also need to fix my habit of tensing my jaw.

I tend to unconsciously tense up my lower body when I'm nervous or concentrating, so I'm worried that if I maintain the same habit after the procedure, I'll go back to how I used to be quickly haha.

Wouldn't getting chin Botox make my facial expressions look awkward?

What I want is not for my chin to be completely smooth and fixed, but just to make it look less bumpy than it does now when I speak or smile.

I especially don't like my smiling expression changing, so I want to take it conservatively at first, haha.

I am also curious if you make decisions during consultations by observing muscle movements while having the patient make their usual facial expressions.

I would also like to know if the effects of chin Botox appear immediately, or if it takes a few days to notice a difference in facial expressions.

Has anyone else tried getting chin Botox because they were worried about the habit of tensing their jaw like me?

I am also curious whether you consciously tried to change your habits after the procedure, or if you naturally started applying less force over time.

  • 턱끝(자갈턱) 근육에 무의식적으로 힘이 들어가는 습관이 있으시다면 턱끝 보톡스가 도움이 될 수 있습니다. 턱끝 보톡스는 이복근과 턱끝근의 과도한 수축을 이완시켜 말하거나 표정을 지을 때 생기는 자갈 모양의 울퉁불퉁한 요철을 완화해 주는 원리입니다. 표정이 어색해질까 봐 걱정되신다면 상담 시 평소 웃거나 말할 때의 입매 움직임을 원장님께 직접 보여주시고, 첫 시술은 소량으로 보수적으로 분할 주사해 달라고 요청하시면 표정 변화 없이 자연스럽게 턱끝 라인만 정돈될 수 있습니다. 보통 시술 후 3~5일 정도 지나면서 서서히 근육 힘이 풀리기 시작해 1~2주 차에 가장 자연스러운 효과가 나타납니다. 보톡스로 근육 긴장이 완화되면 평소 힘을 주는 습관 자체도 의식하지 않아도 한결 덜 들어가게 되니, 시술 주기와 함께 용량을 조절해 가며 맞춤 상담을 받아보시길 권해드립니다.
