[Ttukseom Sio Clinic] Jaw Botox,

Is a square jaw always due to bone?

Located 1 minute from Ttukseom Station Exit 1.

Hello. This is Sio Clinic,

known for excellent Botox in Ttukseom.

When looking at the overall

impression of a face,

the jawline plays an important role.

Depending on the width and angle

of the jaw, the face can look defined,

or conversely, a wide and angular

look can be emphasized.

"I think my face looks big

because of my square jaw."

In fact, some of the people

who visit us are concerned

about the shape of their bones.

However, not all square jaws

are caused by bone.

The shape of the jaw can be

influenced not only by bone

but also by fat, soft tissue,

and the development of the

masseter muscle.

Today, based on these differences,

we will discuss common questions

about jaw Botox step by step.

Square jaw, is it really because of bone?

If you clench your jaw and feel

a hard area protruding below

your ear, it may be that your

masseter muscle is developed.

In cases where muscle development

affects the width of the lower face

and an angular impression,

you can consider non-surgical

methods rather than surgery.

Jaw Botox is a method that helps

reduce the volume of the masseter

muscle over time by reducing

excessive muscle contraction.

While it does not reduce the

size of the bone itself,

if the masseter muscle is developed,

you can expect a softer contour

as the width of the lower face

is alleviated.

Does the habit of clenching

teeth affect face shape?

If you have a habit of clenching

your teeth when concentrating

or grinding your teeth during sleep,

you are repeatedly using

the masseter muscle.

Reducing these habits can help

lower the burden on the jaw,

but there is a limit to how quickly

muscles that have already developed

over a long period can shrink

just by fixing the habit.

Therefore, you can consider

jaw Botox after examining the

degree of masseter development.

However, if you have teeth grinding

or jaw discomfort, it is advisable

to check the cause rather than

judging based on aesthetics alone.

What if one side of the jaw

looks bigger?

Sometimes one side of the jaw

looks wider or the left and right

jawlines feel different when

taking photos. This asymmetry

should also be examined for its cause.

There may be various factors

such as bone structure or occlusion,

but if it is muscular asymmetry

where one masseter muscle is

relatively more developed,

you can consider a method to

control the muscle in that area.

The important thing is not to

apply it equally to both sides,

but to approach it according to

the individual's condition by

examining the facial structure

and muscle development.

Rather than making it small,

checking the balance

It is difficult to think of jaw Botox

simply as a 'procedure to make

the face smaller'.

If the masseter muscle is the cause,

it is meaningful for alleviating

the width of the lower face,

but you cannot expect the same

change for all square jaws or

facial asymmetries.

At Ttukseom Sio Clinic, we first

examine what factors caused the

jaw shape and, if necessary,

we want to consider appropriate

methods together.

Currently, Ttukseom Sio Clinic is

preparing commemorative benefits

for those with jaw concerns

to celebrate our 1st anniversary.

If you are worried about changes

in your jawline but it was difficult

to know the cause,

please start by calmly examining

your current condition.

Ttukseom Sio Clinic values

natural changes that consider

individual facial balance rather

than aiming only for

noticeable changes.

We hope you will resolve your

questions about jaw Botox at

Sio Clinic, where the representative

doctor provides 1:1 design

and direct treatment!
