Before And After BOTOX® & Fillers for the Round Face Case 1305

ABOUT THIS PATIENT
This patient is in his late 20s and first came to Mabrie Facial Institute for BOTOX to treat his masseters. Like many patients dealing with TMJ, he was experiencing bulky jaw muscles and facial tension that impacted both his comfort and facial balance. After getting regular treatments with us and seeing a noticeable reduction in jaw clenching and width, he was ready to explore more options. His goal? To feel like himself again. He told us he wanted to bring back the facial shape he had before TMJ took over and add more definition to his features. We love when our patients trust us to guide them through that next step—especially when it means creating harmony with subtle but impactful changes.

MFI TREATMENT PLAN
After an i360 full-face assessment, Dr. Mabrie designed a treatment plan focused on restoring balance and structure. We continued with BOTOX to the masseters to keep the muscle bulk down and help with TMJ symptoms. From there, we added dermal filler to the cheeks and midface, which not only brought back natural contour but also softened and lifted the overall facial appearance. To complete the plan, we used a touch of Botox in the chin—this smooths dimpling and gives a bit of forward projection, which helps balance the lower face. Every decision was made with his natural features in mind—our approach is always about enhancing, not changing.

THE OUTCOME
The results are exactly what he was hoping for: a more contoured, proportionate look that brings back the facial shape he missed. By relaxing the masseters and adding volume where it had diminished, we’ve re-established balance from top to bottom. His jawline looks sleeker, his cheeks are more defined, and his lower face feels more cohesive with his overall structure. The changes are subtle but powerful—friends and family notice he looks refreshed, but can’t quite pinpoint why. That’s our sweet spot. It’s exciting to see how confident and relaxed he feels now, knowing his face finally reflects the way he sees himself.
