Yes, BOTOX® Cosmetic, which is well known for treating wrinkles and frown lines, can alternatively be used for facial contouring. Instead of undergoing invasive and complicated jaw bone reduction surgery with a plastic surgeon, using BOTOX® injections to contour the face and jaw line requires no downtime afterward and it is safer, faster, and less expensive. The full slimming effect becomes apparent approximately two weeks after the treatment and these results can last anywhere from four to eight months. The cost for using BOTOX® for facial slimming can range from $800-$1200.

I know this in an old thread but I've done this and it definitely works- as long as the problem is muscular and not skeletal. I grind my teeth and had huge chipmunk cheeks. I got the botox and my jaw went back to normal. You do have to do it several times a year however.

Don't they need to use a lot of Botox for TMJ? It must cost a bundle to do that several times a year!
