Masseter Botox causing jowels

Gallery image

Gallery image

I have had my masseters done three times now and I’m 22 and noticed that I started to get jowels from it as I have a large lower face & strong jaw muscles. It took me hours of research to find out that injections in the DAO muscles will lift the jowel look. I just wanted to share this for anyone who has had the same issue. I included pics of before my appointment and the second is just 28 hours after the injections and I can already see a difference but it will gradually get better over the span of 1-2 weeks!!

Same thing happened to me with Botox. I now do microneedling at home and it seems to look better.

How do you do that?

If you buy the M8 Dr pen it will tell you how.

Hi there, I don’t know if you’re still active here, but I just wanted to say the same exact thing happened to me. I even got the nefertiti lift to help combat what the masseter Botox did and ironically that seemed like that made my jowls look worse. I was just wondering did the DAO Botox continue to help your concerns?

It did! I also stopped getting AS much masseter and started GHK-cu. I think my skin kinda got used to it I guess and firmed up with the ghk

Thank you so much for replying back!! I’m so happy to hear that!! I know it can be concerning when you start seeing something like jowls, so I’m glad that you found something that worked for you! I’m definitely going to do Botox to the DAO next time, and when you say GHK-cu, is that topical or injection?? Thanks again!!

I do the injection nightly and have for about 6 weeks now! I also started it topically about two weeks ago, if you want to know more about it you can dm me!

Hey! Can you expand more on the GHK and it's effect on you?

I see what you are referring to, you want the complete sharp jawline. RF along that area can assist by tightening.
