Why did I have jaw botox done?
I've always been insecure about my large jaw. I'm born with a squarish jaw that is extremely prominent and many of my friends have commented before.
"Rach, your jaw is damn square sia"
And honestly, I've always hated it. I didn't like to be reminded that my jaw isn't feminine and that is very manly. That is also one of the reasons, I've never cut my hair short. I always made sure it is long enough to cover my face to give it an illusion that it is smaller.
I used to be think that I would be stuck with this squarish jaw because the one method I know of to have a slimmer face was through plastic surgery. But in 2018, after a little research, I found out that I can make the changes without going under the knife!
Then, I paid a visit to Astute Aesthetics who has great reviews. The consultants were patient and kind, they make sure that you're comfortable and speak to you as though you're their friend. I spoke to them regarding my concerns and they told me the best ways to rectify my problems.
They recommended that we went ahead with doing jaw botox as I've huge muscles around my jaw area that results in a much more squarish, boxy face. To reduce this muscles, I would require botox.
