Face lifting Botox is a non-surgical treatment that helps define and tighten the jawline. It uses Botulinum Toxin Type A, injected into small facial muscles along the jawline—such as the sides of the cheeks, below the ears, and jawbone line. This helps lift the skin naturally and makes the face look slimmer and more contoured.
The doctor injects small amounts of Botox into the shallow layer of skin in tiny dots (like fish eggs) along the jawline from the cheeks to the sides of the ears. These areas control skin tightness.
Botox works by relaxing certain muscles that pull the skin downward, and at the same time, it encourages the upper muscles to lift the skin. This creates a sharper jawline. It’s a safe and popular technique with fast results.
Most people feel only mild pain, which is tolerable. Doctors will apply a cold pack before injecting to reduce discomfort. If you’re still worried, numbing cream is available with free of charge.
You’ll start seeing the best results around week 3 to 4 after injection. Your jawline will look tighter, more defined, and your face shape will look sharper from every angle.
Even though Botox doesn’t need much prep, if you’re worried about bruises or needle marks that may last long, here’s how to prepare:
Stop taking painkillers or certain supplements at least 2 weeks before injection, such as aspirin, NSAIDs, vitamin E, vitamin K, fish oil, or evening primrose oil. These may slow blood clotting and cause bruises to fade slowly.
Avoid alcohol 24 hours before the injection, as it may widen blood vessels and make needle marks more visible.
Note: Pregnant or breastfeeding women should avoid Botox for safety reasons, even though there’s no confirmed research showing harm, it's better to be cautious.
After getting face lifting Botox, there’s no need to rest. You can wash your face, apply skincare, wear makeup, or use face masks as usual. But to let the Botox work its best, here are some simple tips:
Heat is one thing to avoid. Botox is sensitive to high temperatures, especially over 60°C, which can break it down faster. This makes the results fade earlier than expected. So, avoid high-heat activities during the first week.
You can go outside as usual. But try not to stay too long in strong sunlight. While the heat from the sun isn’t enough to break down Botox, it can irritate your skin causing redness, burning, or dark spots. It’s best to use SPF 50+ sunscreen every day and avoid strong sun around noon or early afternoon.
You can eat normally. Hot pot, BBQ, or other hot meals don’t affect Botox. The heat from food or steam isn’t strong enough. Just avoid direct heat on your face during the first week — like putting your face too close to a hot grill or steaming your face.
Usually, there’s no major swelling. You may see tiny bumps like mosquito bites from the needle which will go away in 2–3 hours. Some people with sensitive skin may get light bruises, which fade on their own in 7–14 days. You can cover them with concealer if needed.
Face lifting Botox usually lasts around 3 months, but this can vary slightly depending on how well you care for your skin and how regularly you repeat the treatment.
Botox resistance happens when your body builds antibodies against Botulinum Toxin Type A, making the treatment less effective. You can repeat Botox, but it’s important to wait 3–4 months between sessions. Avoid getting it too often — for example, every month or doing frequent small touch-ups before the previous dose wears off.
To avoid resistance (which currently has no cure), it’s best to:
Face lifting Botox usually uses around 50 units. The doctor will assess your face and inject the right spots based on your muscle structure to give you a natural-looking, slim, and lifted result.
While Face-lifting Botox, on the other hand, is injected along the jawline from the jaw down to under the chin or upper neck. It helps lift and tighten the skin along the facial frame, making the jawline sharper and the face more defined.
For the best results, doctors often recommend combining both jaw Botox and face lifting Botox to achieve a slimmer, more sculpted V-shape face.
Reviews of face lifting Botox and jaw Botox together:
Ultraformer III and face lifting Botox both help lift the face, but they work in different ways and suit different needs.
Many clients choose to do both treatments together for better, longer-lasting results: lift the skin and define the jawline from all angles.
The same Botox lifting technique can be applied to the neck which is great for people with loose neck skin, vertical lines, or sagging under the chin.

Getting Botox with low-quality products, like smuggled or unapproved brands, or from unlicensed injectors, is risky. It may not work, wear off too fast, or worse — cause side effects like allergies, swelling, redness, or even Botox resistance, where the muscles stop responding to the product. Right now, there’s no cure for this condition.
To check if your Botox is real, you have to:
Examples of how to check for authentic Botox:
Before getting Botox, always choose a trusted clinic that uses products directly imported from certified distributors. A good clinic will allow you to inspect the product before injection.
If you plan to get Botox in multiple areas like jaw slimming and face lifting, it’s best to do them in the same session. This avoids getting injections too frequently, which could increase the risk of developing Botox resistance over time. If unsure, talk to your doctor to create a proper treatment plan.
Jawline filler uses hyaluronic acid to fill and shape the jawline, adding volume and definition. It’s ideal for people who want a sharper or more structured look.
Face-lifting Botox tightens and pulls the skin upward to create a slimmer shape. It doesn’t add volume like filler, but helps lift and contour the jawline. It’s perfect for those who want a soft, natural V-shape.
To get the best results for a slimmer face, you can combine face lifting Botox with:
Summary Face lifting Botox is a popular option to naturally shape and define the face. It gives fast results without surgery. It’s great for those who want to look good from every angle or those starting to see mild sagging and want to take early care of their skin.
No matter what treatment you choose, always consult a qualified doctor first. A proper facial assessment helps plan the right injection points and choose the best product for your needs.
