By using a combo of some of my favorite treatments, a slimmer face is just a few appointments away.

A few months back I wrote a post highlighting facial slimming with Botox. In it, I mentioned “Instead of undergoing surgery to have buccal fat removed, you can simply inject Botox into the masseter muscles, the muscles in the lower face, to soften jaw muscles, which causes noticeable facial slimming and shaping. Masseter muscles, which you can feel if you clench your jaw, help you chew food and are located toward the back of your jaw. They are incredibly strong. One of the strongest muscles in your body, actually. If you have bulky masseter muscles, it can give the face a square shape or a wider appearance. But, relaxing those muscles with Botox can help shrink the muscle and create a slimming effect, giving the face a shape that appears more oval or a heart shape. And who doesn’t want that?”

But there’s even more you can do to slim your face. And it doesn’t require going under the knife. By combining different modalities, like Botox with filler and Morpheus 8, you can achieve the look you’ve been dreaming about with me, Danielle Smith, Aesthetic Nurse Practitioner and Miami botox and filler specialist at smith & co. While we know Botox can help with masseter muscles, filler can be used for cheeks, chin and jawline to give you a more defined look. Then, there’s the Nefertiti lift, a non-surgical neck lift that uses Botox to relax neck muscles to create a longer, thinner-looking neck, a la the Egyptian queen Nefertiti. She was well-known for her stunningly elongated neck. 

The final touch: Morpheus 8 for buccal fat and under chin fat slimming. The FDA-cleared cosmetic treatment uses microneedling and radiofrequency energy to rejuvenate skin. By creating micro lesions in the skin, Morpheus 8 helps produce collagen and elastin to smooth and firm the skin. It also helps with fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, acne scars and fat. 

By combining these techniques, you can put your best face forward.
