An NYC Plastic Surgeon Charts The Rise Of Jawline Injections
While less common than forehead or frown-line Botox, jaw-muscle injections are nothing new. For people who’ve been diagnosed with TMJ (temporomandibular joint disorder), masseter Botox is commonly recommended by a dentist or orthodontist as a way to relieve tension and alleviate symptoms of chronic teeth grinding, jaw clenching, even migraine headaches. However, NYC plastic surgeon Dr. Melissa Doft says that she’s recently observed a notable increase in clients booking in for cosmetic masseter Botox, which she says, speaks to a larger trend in jawline interventions.
