Precautions After Masseter and Jaw Botox

YES! SMILE!

Hello,

This is Yesmir Dental Clinic 😊

“Why do you get Botox at a dental clinic?” You were curious, right?

The Botox procedure performed at Yesmir Dental Clinic is

used as an adjunct treatment in a dental approach that may help relieve an overdeveloped masseter muscle (the chewing muscle),

and may be helpful for jaw joint pain, teeth grinding, and clenching habits.

Today, we’ll let you know what to be careful about after the procedure 👇

✅ First, avoid chewing for 2 hours after the procedure.

The Botox needs time to work evenly within the muscle. Please pause gum and hard foods for a while.

✅ Second, do not lie down or bend your head forward for 4 hours after the procedure.

To prevent the Botox from spreading to other areas, it is best to keep an upright posture.

✅ Third, do not rub the treatment area.

Please avoid massage, strong facial cleansing, rollers, and similar actions for about 1 week. If the medicine injected deep into the muscle spreads out, the effect may be reduced.

✅ Fourth, avoid hard or chewy foods.

The masseter muscle we use to chew food can develop more if it receives a lot of stimulation.

It’s like “bulking up at the gym” 😅 Please focus on soft foods for 1 to 2 weeks so the treatment effect can be maintained.

✅ Fifth, please manage your daily routine like this

You may wash your face and put on makeup on the same day, but please handle the treatment area gently. Swelling, bruising, or a cold sensation may occur, but

in most cases, they will naturally improve within a few days. Also, please avoid alcohol, saunas, and Korean steam rooms for about 1 week.

Botox is a procedure that may help not only with appearance, but also with reducing excessive tension in the chewing muscles and easing the burden on the jaw joint.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us anytime 🙌
