​

Just like excessive weight lost, will my skin sag after the non-surgical square jaw reduction procedure?

​

Will I become addicted to the the non-surgical square jaw reduction procedure?

​

The treatment does not produce any form of dependence or addiction to B'tx. The "addiction" probably comes because you love your slimmed face so much, that you want to maintain it! If however, you are satisfied with the outcome and decide not to have any further treatment, there is no reason why you need to repeat the treatment again - its all up to you.

 

Is the outcome of the non-surgical jaw reduction by B'tx permanent?

​

With repeated non-surgical square jaw reduction treatment, the effects becomes more and more permanent as the body gets used to the smaller masseter muscles.

​

I did the non-surgical jaw reduction by B'tx. Why do I not see the result?

​

If you do not see the results from your recent non-surgical jaw reduction by B'tx, here’s a checklist to find out why:

​

1. Is the treatment done by someone reliable using approved ingredients? Only FDA (USA) and HSA (Singapore) approved B'tx ingredients should be used as unapproved composition can be ineffective. There are only 3 brands of approved botulum toxin, B'tx, Dyspot and Xomin. It also depends on whether the person who performed the non-surgical square jaw reduction for you is appropriately trained (which should be a qualified medical doctor) as dosage, protocol and methodology in administering the treatment is essential to see good results. An unlicensed spa or beautician should not be doing this procedure for you.

​

2. When did your non-surgical square jaw reduction by botulum toxin take place? Has it been 2 months after the procedure done at the doctor's office? Results are not instantaneous. You will have to wait for an average of 2-8 weeks before results can be seen. 

 

3. Was the dose of botulum toxin enough? If you used a small dose of botulum toxin, you will correspondingly see a small change in your appearance. Small dosages may be one of the reason why you are unable to notice the difference. Ask your cosmetic doctor for a heavier dose or go for a top up to see better results. 

 

4. Was the diagnosis and assessment of the reason for your square jaw correct? There are 4 main reasons why a person do not have a slim face. The first is a big bone, second is fat under the skin, third is fat under the cheeks, and lastly, huge and bulky masseter muscles at the jaws. The non-surgical square jaw reduction procedure is targeted toi reduce the huge and bulky masseter muscles at the jaws. If the reason for a square jaw or non-slim face is not the masseter muscles, this procedure may not work.

​

Other procedures are required to solve the other reasons to achieve a slim face. Sometimes, reasons for a square and non-slim face is multi-factored (more then one reason) as well. An experienced cosmetic doctor will be able to tell you the underlying reason for your square face and recommend the correct treatments accordingly. 

​

5. Do you have antibodies that are resistant to the brand of botulum toxin that you are using? It very rarely happens, but is technically possible that the injected B'tx is removed by your body antibodies such that the B'tx becomes ineffective in reducing the bulky masseter muscles at the jaws. The solution is to try other brands of botulnum toxin - such as Xomin which tends not to attract anti-body resistance, or try other modes of treatment. There is always a way out!
