Salivary Gland Botox in Busan Seomyeon

What is Salivary Gland Botox, and what does it do?

Salivary gland Botox injects botulinum toxin into the parotid gland, the large salivary gland that sits over the angle of the jaw in front of the ear. In some faces the gland is enlarged, from genetics, from years of clenching, or from habits that stimulate it, and it adds width exactly where a square jaw would. Botox reduces the gland's activity so it shrinks over six to eight weeks, narrowing the lower face in a way masseter Botox alone cannot. Saliva production from the other glands continues; the mouth does not go dry at the doses used.

At Boom Dermatology in Seomyeon this is the second step for a patient whose lower face stayed wide after well-dosed jaw Botox, and the first step when the doctor can feel that the width is soft gland rather than firm muscle. The two are often treated together in one visit. The doctor confirms which you have by palpation and by watching you clench before anything is injected.

Downtime after Salivary Gland Botox, and flying home

None. Pinpricks for an hour; occasionally a small bruise. Saliva feels normal at the doses used. The angle of the jaw narrows over six to eight weeks.

I had jaw Botox and my face is still wide. Why?

Because the width was not all muscle. The parotid gland sits over the same angle of the jaw and, when enlarged, adds a soft fullness that masseter Botox does not touch. Patients who clench heavily often have both an enlarged masseter and an enlarged gland. At Boom Dermatology the doctor palpates the area while you clench to separate the two, and treats both in one visit if both are present.

How do I know whether it is muscle or gland?

Clench your teeth and press the angle of your jaw. Muscle hardens and bulges under your fingers; gland stays soft and the same size. Bone does neither and does not move. The doctor confirms this at the consultation; it takes thirty seconds and costs nothing if you proceed.

Does reducing a salivary gland affect digestion or dry my mouth?

Not at the doses used for slimming. The parotid is one of several salivary glands; reducing its output modestly on each side leaves the others working and total saliva within the normal range. Patients who already have a dry mouth, or who take medication that reduces saliva, are not candidates, and the doctor asks.

How much narrower will my face actually look?

Enough to be visible in a front photo at six to eight weeks when the gland is the cause, and more when jaw Botox is done at the same time. It is a softening of the angle rather than a new face. The doctor at our Seomyeon skin clinic will show you on your own photo where the change will sit.

Is this permanent, or does the gland come back?

It comes back gradually as the toxin wears off, over four to six months, like every Botox treatment. After two or three rounds the gland tends to stay smaller for longer and intervals stretch. There is no cumulative harm from repeating it.
