Jawline Slimming Botox for V-Line Jaw in Seoul
Achieve a slim, defined V-line jawline without surgery using masseter Botox at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport. Our physicians inject Allergan Botox into the hypertrophic masseter muscle to reduce jaw width by 20-30% over 4-8 weeks — from just ₩9,900 per unit, open 365 days near ICN airport.
What Is Masseter Botox for Jawline Slimming?
Masseter Botox is a non-surgical procedure that injects botulinum toxin (Allergan Botox) into the masseter muscles — the large chewing muscles at the angle of the jaw. By temporarily weakening these muscles, they gradually atrophy over 4-8 weeks, reducing jaw width by 20-30% and creating the coveted Korean V-line facial contour. At RE:BERRY Incheon Airport, we use high-dose Allergan Botox (40-60 units per side) with deep intramuscular injection technique for maximum jaw slimming.
The masseter muscle is one of the strongest muscles in the body relative to its size. In patients with masseteric hypertrophy — common in East Asian populations and those who clench, grind teeth (bruxism), or chew gum frequently — the enlarged masseter creates a square, wide jaw appearance. Korean aesthetic medicine pioneered the use of botulinum toxin for jaw contouring in the early 2000s, and the technique has been refined over two decades. The treatment requires higher unit counts than wrinkle Botox (typically 40-60 units per side, 80-120 total) and precise deep-muscle injection. Results develop gradually over 4-8 weeks as the muscle mass decreases, with peak slimming at 8-12 weeks. Effects last 6-12 months, with cumulative sessions producing longer-lasting results. RE:BERRY physicians perform hundreds of masseter Botox procedures monthly, using ultrasound-guided marking for optimal muscle targeting.

How Jawline Slimming Botox Works at RE:BERRY
Our 4-step masseter Botox protocol for predictable V-line results.
Step 1: Jaw Assessment & Muscle Mapping
Your doctor palpates both masseter muscles while you clench your jaw to assess muscle thickness, symmetry, and the bulge pattern. We measure jaw width with calipers and photograph from frontal and 45-degree angles for baseline documentation. If there is significant asymmetry, the unit count will be adjusted per side for a balanced result.
Step 2: Deep Intramuscular Injection
Using Allergan Botox, the doctor injects 40-60 units per side into the masseter belly at 3-5 points. Korean technique emphasizes deep intramuscular placement (not superficial) to target the muscle’s thickest portion while avoiding the parotid gland and facial nerve branches. The injection takes approximately 5 minutes per side.
Step 3: Symmetry Check & Ice Application
After injection, the doctor verifies symmetric placement and applies cold compresses to reduce bruising risk. You are advised to avoid hard or chewy foods for 2-3 days and to refrain from massaging the jaw area. No downtime is required — you can resume normal activities immediately.
Step 4: Progressive Slimming & Follow-Up
Jaw slimming is gradual: you will notice initial softening of the muscle at 2-3 weeks, visible jaw narrowing at 4-6 weeks, and peak slimming at 8-12 weeks. RE:BERRY offers a 6-week follow-up (in-person or video) to assess progress and plan your next session. Most patients achieve their ideal V-line after 2-3 sessions spaced 4-6 months apart.
Why Choose Masseter Botox at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport
- Non-Surgical V-Line: Achieve Korean V-line jaw contouring without bone shaving surgery, general anesthesia, or weeks of recovery.
- 20-30% Jaw Reduction: Clinical studies show masseter Botox reduces jaw width by 20-30% at optimal dosing, equivalent to 5-15mm of visible narrowing.
- Bruxism Relief: Masseter Botox simultaneously treats teeth grinding (bruxism) and TMJ discomfort — a dual aesthetic and functional benefit.
- Cumulative Improvement: Each treatment session builds on the previous one. After 2-3 sessions, the muscle atrophy becomes semi-permanent, requiring fewer units.
- Zero Downtime: Walk in, get treated, walk out. No swelling, no bandages, no diet restrictions beyond avoiding very chewy foods for 2-3 days.
- Airport Convenience: RE:BERRY is minutes from ICN airport, open 365 days. Perfect for layover treatments or pre-departure sessions.

The Science Behind Masseter Botox Jaw Slimming
Peer-reviewed evidence supporting botulinum toxin for masseter hypertrophy and facial contouring.
Botulinum Toxin for Masseteric Hypertrophy
Masseteric hypertrophy is a benign enlargement of the masseter muscle that causes a square, wide lower face. The condition affects an estimated 8-14% of the population, with higher prevalence in East Asian populations. To et al. (2001) first described botulinum toxin injection for masseter reduction, and Kim et al. (2003) established the standard injection protocol: 25-50 units of onabotulinumtoxinA per side, injected at 3-5 points within the muscle belly at the mandibular angle. Their prospective study of 60 patients demonstrated a mean jaw width reduction of 11.5mm (range 5-20mm) at 12 weeks.
Dose-Response Relationship & Optimal Protocol
Xie et al. (2014) conducted a dose-ranging study comparing 25, 40, and 60 units per side in 90 patients with masseteric hypertrophy. The 40-unit and 60-unit groups showed significantly greater jaw width reduction (14.2mm and 16.8mm respectively) compared to the 25-unit group (8.7mm). Patient satisfaction was highest in the 40-60 unit range. Importantly, the higher doses did not increase adverse events, as the masseter can tolerate large botulinum toxin doses due to its substantial muscle mass. RE:BERRY protocols typically use 40-60 units per side based on individual muscle assessment.
Cumulative Effect and Long-Term Muscle Atrophy
Lee et al. (2018) followed 112 patients over 3 years of serial masseter Botox treatments. After 3+ treatment sessions, 78% of patients showed persistent muscle volume reduction lasting 12-18 months between sessions (compared to 4-6 months after the first treatment). Ultrasonographic measurement confirmed a mean 31% reduction in masseter thickness after cumulative treatment, supporting the concept of progressive denervation atrophy. This explains why repeat patients at RE:BERRY often require lower doses over time while maintaining their V-line contour.
Dual Benefit: Aesthetics and Bruxism Treatment
Masseter Botox simultaneously addresses teeth grinding (bruxism) and TMJ dysfunction. Shim et al. (2014) conducted a randomized controlled trial of 20 bruxism patients and found that masseter Botox reduced nocturnal EMG activity by 60% and decreased bite force by 38% at 4 weeks. Patients reported significant improvements in jaw pain, headache frequency, and tooth sensitivity. At RE:BERRY, approximately 40% of jawline slimming patients also report bruxism symptom relief as a secondary benefit.

What Our Patients Say About Jawline Slimming
“My jaw was always the widest part of my face. After two sessions of masseter Botox at RE:BERRY (100 units each time), my face shape changed from square to oval. The transformation was gradual so nobody suspected I had anything done — they just said I looked ‘different, better’.”
“I combined masseter Botox with Juvederm chin filler at RE:BERRY Incheon during a trip to Seoul. The V-line effect is amazing. My jaw is narrower and my chin is more defined. Dr. Cho was incredibly precise.”
“As a man with a heavy jaw from years of teeth grinding, I was skeptical about Botox. But after 3 sessions over 14 months, my jaw is slimmer and I have zero bruxism symptoms. The ₩9,900/unit pricing is unbeatable for Allergan Botox.”
“Got my masseter Botox on a layover at Incheon. Dr. Kim did it in 20 minutes. Six weeks later, my face looks completely different in photos. Already booked my second session for my next Seoul trip.”
