When most people think of Botox, they picture smoother foreheads and softened crow’s feet. And while Botox is incredibly effective at reducing fine lines and wrinkles, there’s much more to it than cosmetic touch-ups.
Liquid Mobile’s Director of Clinical Operations, Jazmen Dumbauld, recently shared three surprising ways Botox can be used beyond the basics.
1. It Can Help Reduce Underarm Sweating
“Botox is a wonderful drug that you can use in various locations,” Jazmen said, “not only for the upper face or lower face for wrinkles and fine lines, but you can also use it for underarm sweating.”
This condition, known as hyperhidrosis, causes excessive sweating even in cool temperatures. Botox works by blocking the nerve signals that trigger sweat glands, helping people stay dry and confident for months at a time.
2. It Can Treat the Neck (Yes, Really)
“It can also help reduce the strain from the platysmal bands in your neck. So we can treat your neck,” Jazmen explained.
The platysmal bands are the vertical muscles that run down the neck. As we age, they can become more pronounced, leading to a “pulled” or aged appearance. Botox helps relax these muscles, creating a smoother, more youthful neckline.
3. It Can Slim the Jaw and Ease Clenching
“And then you can also use it for any jaw slimming or jaw clenching that you might experience,” Jazmen added.
By injecting Botox into the masseter muscle, you can gently relax the muscle responsible for chewing, helping to create a softer, more sculpted jawline with a naturally contoured look.
