Botulinum toxin (Botox) masseter injection is currently one of the safest and most effective non-surgical methods for face-slimming. At Rappoel Dermatology, jaw-slimming injection is the most frequently requested treatment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 15px; color: #3d2b1f; line-height: 1.9; margin: 0 0 14px;\">Rappoel physicians have extensive clinical experience with Botox injections.
