What Cosmetic Injectables Treat
Injectable treatments like Botox, Dysport, and Daxxify target muscle activity that contributes to wrinkles, tension, and facial imbalance.
Common treatment areas include:
- Horizontal lines on the forehead
- Frown lines between the brows
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Nasolabial folds
- Prominent cheek muscles or clenching-related bulk
- Fat reduction and contouring around the neck
Botox for TMJ and Jaw Tension
Overactive jaw muscles can cause clenching, grinding, and discomfort in the face or neck. Botox for TMJ can relax these muscles to ease tension, reduce pain, and protect surrounding teeth and joints from strain. Treatment is quick, comfortable, and does not affect normal facial movement or chewing.
