Medical and Aesthetic Botox Treatments

Botox is a widely used and well studied treatment for both medical and aesthetic purposes. When administered by a surgeon trained in oral and maxillofacial surgery, Botox can be a precise tool that improves muscle related pain and helps achieve natural looking aesthetic results. In my clinic, Botox treatments are personalised and performed with careful dosing based on anatomy and muscle activity.

Medical Botox Treatments

Medical Botox is used to reduce muscle activity that causes pain, overload, or functional problems. It can be effective for conditions such as:

• Myofascial pain in the chewing muscles
• Teeth grinding (bruxism)
• Jaw clenching
• Excess load on the TMJ
• Headaches originating from the chewing muscles
• Masseter muscle hypertrophy

The treatment uses precise dosing and placement tailored to each patient’s muscle activity, rather than standard points. The goal is to reduce pain and muscle overload while maintaining normal function and a natural appearance.

Aesthetic Botox Treatments

Aesthetic Botox softens dynamic wrinkles and enhances facial appearance in a gentle, non invasive way. It is suitable for areas such as:

• Forehead lines
• Frown lines between the eyebrows
• Crow’s feet around the eyes
• Subtle eyebrow lift
• Reducing a gummy smile
• Refining the jawline by relaxing the masseter muscle

The goal is a natural result, without a frozen or exaggerated look.

Why choose a surgeon trained in oral and maxillofacial surgery?

• Experience treating myofascial pain and TMJ disorders

How the treatment is performed

Natural, safe, and personalised results

Botox can be an excellent therapeutic and aesthetic tool when performed by skilled hands. The goal is to achieve a precise, balanced, and natural result, improving function, reducing pain, and enhancing appearance in a subtle and refined way.
