I’ll let you in on a little secret. I’ve been doing Masseter BOTOX®, better known as jaw botox for a while now. It started about 2 years back when I visited my dentist. I was told that little hairline cracks have started to appear on my teeth. Then I realised why I have been waking up to jaw pain every morning that sometimes cause my head to hurt as well. I have been grinding and clenching my teeth while I sleep. That was when she suggested botox or mouth guard. No prize for which option I decided on. Since then, I’d go see an aesthetic doctor every half a year for my masseter botox. BOTOX® helps to weaken the muscles to reduce involuntary grinding and clenching of the jaw. This significantly relaxes the muscle and reduces the wear and tear on the teeth due to grinding and clenching. The effect lasts for approximately 6 to 9 months. The lost of muscle mass also will give a slimmer jawline akin to weight loss. I’d be lying if I say that the added slimming of my face doesn’t excite me. Find me a female who doesn’t want to look slimmer. Bet you can’t! haha. […]
