How Injectables Can Slim Your Face or Neck

When people think of facial injectables, they often picture wrinkle-smoothing treatments or lip enhancements. But modern aesthetic medicine offers far more than that. Today, injectables can also reshape and slim the face and neck, creating a more sculpted, balanced, and refined appearance — without surgery or downtime.

At Creative Facial Aesthetics in New York City, our team of expert injectors uses advanced techniques with neuromodulators (like Botox®, Dysport®, and Xeomin®) and Kybella® to contour the lower face and reduce unwanted fullness in the neck. These treatments offer a subtle, natural-looking transformation that develops gradually over time, helping patients look refreshed — not “done.”

Slimming the Face with Neuromodulators

One of the most common areas for injectable facial slimming is the masseter muscle, the powerful jaw muscle that helps with chewing. For many people, overactive or enlarged masseter muscles can create a wider, more square-shaped jawline — especially common in those who clench or grind their teeth.

By precisely injecting neuromodulators into these muscles, our injectors can gently relax them, reducing their activity and bulk over time. This results in a slimmer, softer, and more refined jawline without affecting your ability to speak or chew normally.

The process typically takes 10–15 minutes, and results develop gradually over 4–6 weeks as the muscles begin to relax and the face takes on a more contoured appearance. For most patients, full results last 4–6 months, with maintenance treatments helping to preserve the slimmer, more balanced look.

Eliminating a Double Chin with Kybella®

If you struggle with fullness under the chin — often called a double chin — you’re not alone. Even with diet and exercise, submental fat can be stubborn and difficult to reduce. This is where Kybella® comes in.

Kybella is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that targets and destroys fat cells beneath the chin using a synthetic form of deoxycholic acid, a molecule your body naturally produces to help break down dietary fat. Once injected, Kybella gradually reduces submental fullness as your body metabolizes the destroyed fat cells, permanently eliminating them from the area.

Most patients begin to see visible improvement after 2–4 sessions, spaced about a month apart. The results are permanent — once the fat cells are gone, they cannot return — making Kybella an effective long-term solution for achieving a sharper jawline and more defined neck profile.

Subtle, Natural Results — Over Time

One of the greatest advantages of injectable facial and neck slimming is that results develop gradually, giving your appearance a naturally refined look. Unlike surgical procedures, which can require weeks of recovery and result in dramatic immediate changes, injectable treatments allow you to continue your daily life without interruption.

You can expect:

• Minimal downtime — most patients return to work the same day.
• Gradual improvement over several weeks or months.
• Natural-looking results that enhance your features, not change them.
• Customizable treatment plans tailored to your anatomy and goals.

At Creative Facial Aesthetics, we use advanced mapping and injection techniques to ensure symmetry, precision, and natural harmony. Each treatment plan is uniquely designed to enhance your individual bone structure and proportions — never a “one-size-fits-all” approach.

We take the time to evaluate your goals, facial balance, and skin quality before recommending a customized treatment plan. Whether your concern is a broad jawline, excess chin fat, or both, we can create a comprehensive non-surgical contouring strategy that delivers long-lasting results.

Slimmer, Smoother, and Naturally You

Facial and neck slimming doesn’t have to mean drastic change — it can be about refining your natural beauty. With injectables like neuromodulators and Kybella, it’s now possible to achieve elegant, gradual improvements that help you look more youthful and confident without anyone knowing you’ve had “work done.”

At Creative Facial Aesthetics in New York City, our mission is to help every patient feel their best — confident, refreshed, and completely themselves.
