Jaw Botox V-Line Contouring in Myeongdong Seoul
Achieve a slimmer, more defined jawline without surgery. Jaw Botox targets the masseter muscle to reduce jaw width and create the coveted Korean V-line silhouette. From ₩29,000 at RE:BERRY Myeongdong, 2 minutes from Myeongdong Station.
What Is Jaw Botox?
Jaw Botox (masseter Botox) is a non-surgical injectable treatment that relaxes the masseter muscle to slim the jawline, creating a V-line facial contour. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, 50 units of botulinum toxin are precisely injected into each masseter muscle, producing visible jaw slimming within 2-4 weeks. The procedure takes under 15 minutes with no downtime.
The masseter is one of the strongest muscles in the body. When overdeveloped due to teeth grinding (bruxism), habitual clenching, or genetic factors, it creates a square, wide jawline. Jaw Botox works by temporarily blocking acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction, causing controlled muscle relaxation and gradual atrophy. This non-invasive approach has replaced jaw reduction surgery for most patients seeking facial slimming in Korea. RE:BERRY Myeongdong uses premium Korean botulinum toxin brands with proven safety profiles, administered by board-certified physicians who understand Asian facial anatomy.

How Jaw Botox Works at RE:BERRY Myeongdong
A simple four-step protocol for safe, effective jaw slimming.
Consultation & Jaw Assessment
Dr. Baek evaluates your masseter muscle size, bite pattern, and facial symmetry. The doctor determines the optimal injection dosage and placement points based on your anatomy.
Injection Mapping
The doctor marks precise injection points on each masseter muscle. Typically 3-5 points per side are identified for even distribution and natural-looking results.
Botox Administration
Using ultra-fine 30-32G needles, botulinum toxin is injected into the masseter muscle at precise depths. The entire injection process takes approximately 5-10 minutes.
Aftercare & Follow-Up
No downtime required. Avoid massaging the area for 24 hours. Follow-up recommended at 2-4 weeks to assess results and determine if touch-up is needed.

The Science Behind Jaw Botox
Peer-reviewed research supporting botulinum toxin for masseter reduction and facial contouring.
Mechanism of Action
Botulinum toxin type A blocks the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, causing temporary chemical denervation of the masseter muscle. This leads to dose-dependent muscle relaxation and, with sustained denervation over 2-4 weeks, measurable muscle atrophy. The reduced muscle volume translates directly to visible jaw narrowing.
Masseter Hypertrophy and Facial Width
Masseter hypertrophy is a common cause of a wide, square jawline, particularly prevalent in East Asian populations. Studies using ultrasonography have demonstrated that botulinum toxin injection reduces masseter thickness by 20-30% at peak effect (8-12 weeks post-injection). The reduction in muscle volume creates a more tapered, V-shaped lower face contour.
Dosing and Safety
Standard dosing for aesthetic masseter reduction ranges from 25-50 units per side. Kim et al. (2003) established the efficacy and safety of 25U per side, while subsequent studies by To et al. (2001) and Xie et al. (2014) confirmed that higher doses produce greater and more sustained reduction without significant adverse effects when properly administered.

Frequently Asked Questions About Jaw Botox
Expert answers to the most common questions about jaw Botox at RE:BERRY Myeongdong Seoul.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong offers masseter jaw Botox 50U at ₩29,000. Wrinkle Botox is ₩19,000 per area. All prices exclude VAT. These are April 2026 promotion prices.
Yes. Jaw Botox and masseter Botox refer to the same procedure: botulinum toxin injection into the masseter muscle for jawline slimming and V-line contouring.
Initial results last 4-6 months. With repeated sessions (typically every 4-6 months), the masseter muscle gradually atrophies, making results last progressively longer — up to 8-12 months after 3+ sessions.
Most patients describe a mild pinching sensation. Ultra-fine 30-32G needles are used, and the procedure takes only 5-10 minutes. Topical numbing is available but rarely needed.
When properly dosed and administered by an experienced physician, jaw Botox does not affect normal chewing. The masseter is only partially relaxed, not paralyzed. You may notice slightly reduced bite force with very hard foods for the first few weeks.
Standard dosing is 25-50 units per side, depending on masseter size and desired result. RE:BERRY’s package includes 50 units, which is appropriate for moderate to significant jaw reduction.
Muscle relaxation begins within 3-5 days. Visible jaw slimming appears at 2-4 weeks. Maximum V-line effect is achieved at 6-8 weeks.
Yes. Botulinum toxin has over 30 years of clinical use. When administered by a trained physician, jaw Botox has an excellent safety profile. Side effects are rare and typically limited to mild bruising at injection sites.
Absolutely. Popular combinations include jaw Botox with nose filler for overall facial harmony, or with Ultherapy for simultaneous lifting and slimming.
Jaw Botox is non-surgical, takes 10 minutes, has no downtime, and costs from ₩29,000. Jaw surgery (V-line osteotomy) involves bone reshaping under general anesthesia with 4-8 weeks recovery and costs ₩5,000,000+. Botox is reversible; surgery is permanent.
No special preparation needed. Avoid blood thinners (aspirin, ibuprofen) and alcohol for 24-48 hours before treatment to minimize bruising risk. Arrive with a clean face.
Yes. RE:BERRY Myeongdong is 2 minutes from Myeongdong Station Exit 2. We offer 8-language support including English, Japanese, Chinese, and Thai. Walk-ins welcome, but booking recommended.
No. Jaw Botox produces gradual, natural-looking slimming over 2-4 weeks. There is no dramatic overnight change. The result looks like natural weight loss in the face.
Most patients return every 4-6 months initially. After 3-4 sessions, the interval can extend to 6-12 months as the masseter muscle progressively shrinks.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong uses premium Korean botulinum toxin products that are KFDA-approved. The specific brand is selected based on your treatment goals and discussed during consultation.
No downtime whatsoever. You can return to all normal activities immediately, including eating, talking, and applying makeup. Most patients go straight back to shopping in Myeongdong.
Yes. Jaw Botox is an effective treatment for bruxism (teeth grinding) and TMJ disorder. By relaxing the masseter, it reduces nighttime clenching, jaw pain, and tension headaches.
They address different concerns. Jaw Botox reduces muscle mass for structural slimming. Thermage tightens skin and reduces fat for overall face tightening. They can be combined for comprehensive facial contouring.
Jaw Botox results are temporary and fully reversible. If you feel the effect is insufficient, a touch-up can be done at your 2-4 week follow-up. If you prefer a less dramatic result next time, dosing can be adjusted.
Yes. Jaw Botox is popular among men for softening an overly angular jawline or relieving bruxism. Dosing may be slightly higher for men due to larger muscle mass.
At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, Botox treats forehead lines, frown lines, crow’s feet, bunny lines, lip flip, gummy smile, neck bands, and hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).
