Jaw Slimming

Sculpted Definition And Softened Strength.

If you feel your jawline appears overly wide or heavy when you clench, jaw slimming treatment can create a softer, more contoured lower face. Often caused by enlarged masseter muscles, this concern can affect facial balance and, in some cases, be linked to teeth grinding or jaw tension.

At House of Glo, our medically-led Jaw Slimming treatment gently relaxes these muscles to refine the face shape while maintaining natural expression.

What is Jaw Slimming treatment?

Jaw Slimming treatment is a non-surgical procedure that uses carefully placed anti-wrinkle injections to relax the masseter muscles - the strong muscles at the back of the jaw responsible for chewing and clenching. When these muscles are enlarged, they can create a wider, more square lower face. By gently softening their activity, the jawline gradually appears slimmer and more contoured over time. In some cases, the treatment can also help relieve symptoms of jaw tension, teeth grinding (bruxism) and facial discomfort.

What Does Jaw Slimming Treatment Treat?

Jaw Slimming treatment is designed to soften and rebalance the lower face by reducing overactivity in the masseter muscles. The result is a more contoured jawline and, for some patients, relief from muscle-related tension.

It can help to treat:

  • A wide or square lower face caused by enlarged masseter muscles
  • Facial heaviness in the jaw area
  • Teeth grinding (bruxism)
  • Jaw clenching
  • Tension-related jaw discomfort
  • Headaches linked to jaw muscle overactivity
  • Imbalance between the upper and lower face

Is Jaw Slimming Treatment safe?

Jaw Slimming treatment is considered safe and well established in aesthetic and medical practice. The same medication has been used for many years to treat muscle-related conditions such as teeth grinding and jaw tension. When performed with clinical precision and conservative technique, the procedure is quick, minimally uncomfortable and involves little to no downtime. Your safety, comfort and natural-looking results are always the priority.

What to Expect from the Jaw Slimming session

1. Consultation

Your appointment begins with a detailed consultation with Nurse Julie. You’ll be asked to clench your jaw so muscle strength and bulk can be assessed. We’ll discuss your aesthetic goals, any symptoms of teeth grinding or tension, and review your medical history to ensure suitability.

2. Treatment

The treatment itself is quick and precise. Small amounts of anti-wrinkle medication are carefully injected into the masseter muscles on each side of the jaw. The procedure usually takes around 10–15 minutes and involves minimal discomfort.

3. Aftercare

You can return to most daily activities immediately after your appointment. You’ll be advised to:

  • Avoid rubbing or massaging the area for 24 hours
  • Remain upright for several hours post-treatment
  • Avoid strenuous exercise and excessive heat for 24 hours
  • Be mindful of excessive chewing or gum use in the first day

Personalised aftercare guidance will always be provided.

4. Results

Jaw Slimming results develop gradually. You may notice early changes within 2–3 weeks, with full contouring visible at around 6–8 weeks as the muscle reduces in size.

The lower face will appear softer and more refined, while tension-related symptoms may improve sooner. Results typically last around 4–6 months.

Why Choose House of Glo for Jaw Slimming treatment?

Jaw Slimming involves strong functional muscles and requires expert anatomical knowledge to achieve safe, balanced and natural results. At House of Glo, your treatment is delivered with clinical precision and genuine care. Here’s why patients trust us:

  • Medically Led Expertise – Your treatment is carried out by Nurse Julie, an experienced Advanced Nurse Prescriber with in-depth understanding of facial anatomy and muscle dynamics.
  • Comprehensive jaw assessment – We evaluate muscle strength, clenching patterns and facial proportions before recommending treatment.
  • Facial harmony focus – We consider your entire facial balance, not just the jawline in isolation.
  • Subtle, sculpted results – The aim is refined contouring — softening heaviness without looking over-treated.

FAQs

Following your consultation and detailed assessment with Nurse Julie, small, carefully measured amounts of anti-wrinkle medication are precisely injected into the masseter muscles during one session. The procedure usually takes around 10–15 minutes, and you can return to most normal daily activities shortly afterwards.

While the treatment itself is completed in one visit, results develop gradually over several weeks as the muscle reduces in size. A review appointment may be offered to monitor progress and ensure your results are balanced and in harmony with your facial features.
