What is Parotid Botox?
Botox for the parotid area (near the jawline and ears) is typically used to address overactive parotid glands, which can cause excessive salivation. By injecting Botox into this area, the function of the parotid glands is temporarily reduced, leading to less saliva production. This treatment can also help with contouring of the jawline.
This treatment is ideal for individuals experiencing excess salivation or those looking for jawline contouring through Botox.
Things You Should Know Before Your Parotid Botox Treatment
Before undergoing Botox injections in the parotid area, consider the following:
- Consultation: A consultation with a specialist is necessary to assess your concerns and create a personalized treatment plan.
- Avoid Anti-inflammatory Medications: Refrain from taking anti-inflammatory medications a week before the procedure to reduce the risk of bruising.
What Happens During Parotid Botox Treatment?
During the treatment, expect the following:
- Injection Process: Botox is injected into the parotid area using a fine needle to reduce gland activity or enhance contouring.
- Sensations: You may feel slight discomfort during the injections, but the treatment is quick and tolerable.
- Duration: The procedure typically lasts around 15 to 20 minutes.
Recovery and Results: What to Expect
After your Parotid Botox treatment, here’s what to expect:
- Minimal Downtime: You can resume normal activities immediately after the treatment.
- Reduced Saliva Production: If treated for excess salivation, you will notice a reduction within a few days to a week.
- Long-Lasting Results: The effects typically last for 3 to 6 months.
