Has anyone tried getting square jaw Botox and salivary gland Botox together?
2026.11.14 06:22
Hello, I am a male office worker in my late 20s. Lately, every time I look in the mirror, the area below my ears and along my jawline feels bulging, which has been bothering me. I suspect it might be due to my square jaw muscles, so I am considering getting jaw Botox. However, I have read that it often appears bulging due to asymmetry in the parotid or submandibular salivary glands. When I go for a consultation, does the doctor usually examine the area to determine if it is jaw muscles or salivary glands and administer a customized dosage? I am also curious how long the soreness when chewing or swelling lasts if I get injections in both areas. Since I have to go to work the very next day, I am slightly worried about whether it will interfere with my daily life. If anyone who has had this done could share tips on when the effects appear or the treatment cycle, it would be a great help during my consultation!

- 01CommentsI also have a habit of furrowing my brows when concentrating or looking at my smartphone, so I tried it as a preventative measure and was quite satisfied! Even before the creases deepen, slightly relaxing the muscle tension helps correct facial expression habits. Usually, you can feel the tension gradually draining about 1 to 2 weeks after the procedure, and the results seem to last for about 3 to 6 months. Since it is around the eyes, you might be worried about side effects. I recommend asking during your consultation if they thoroughly check your natural eyebrow muscle movements and eyebrow position first, and starting with a small amount to avoid an excessive treatment!2842026.11.11
- 02CommentsI've seen a lot of talk saying that it's better to manage frown lines before they deepen. If it's your first time, I think it would be a good idea to start with a small amount to see if your facial expressions look natural.560026.11.09

- 03CommentsI 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.4250026.11.04
