If you have been facing insecurities of your round face, like me, then there’s one fuss-free and non-invasive facial treatment you should not hesitate to get done – jaw reduction by Botox or Dysport! It’s a painless, okay probably just a pinch on your cheeks, and the best part? No down time! Definitely less dramatic than invasive cosmetic surgeries.
I visited Astique clinic, which is just a stone’s throw away from Orchard MRT, to get my jaw reduction treatment and chin fillers.
Looks professional and clean right? Heh.
So I started with meeting the ever friendly and caring Dr. Celine, who’s an experienced doctor in this field for several years already. We went through the standard string of questions to check if I have any drug allergies, and past aesthetic treatments that I have done before.
We then went on to discuss the issues I had with my face.
Dr. Celine is a very caring doctor and she was concerned about my aging eye bags. She also advised me to fix that area! It was a very quick session to find out about my wants and needs and shortly after, we proceeded to the treatment room.
Here’s a shot of the nurse who’s helping me to wash off all the gunk on my face.
Numbing cream was applied onto my skin after that and the procedure was almost painless because of that. They left it on my face for a good 20 minutes.
Trust me, I’m a guy who’s very skeptical and doubtful. After 20 minutes, I tried to poke my face with a pen to see if the numbing cream works. And yeah, I didn’t feel a thing at all. Heh!
The products which they are gonna use on my face!
Dr. Celine came into the treatment room with her magic marker to draw on my face so that she would know which is the area to focus on and inject the botox in.
Wondering why was there a finger on my temple? It was to distract my thoughts while Dr. Celine worked her magic on my jaw. The entire jaw reduction process only lasted about 10 minutes? It. Was. That. Fast.
Once my jaws were done, Dr. Celine went on to explain the type of product she was going to use for my chin fillers! What took me by surprise was that should there be a day I’m unhappy with the shape of my chin, the process is reversible! They’re able to dissolve Hyaluronic Acid (HA) based fillers and usually recommend them for first timers especially.
Then we went on to use an ice cube to numb my chin further. Honestly, the coldness of the ice cube was definitely more painful than all the needles going into my face. Trust me.
Alright, now to inject the fillers into my chin!
You see, the nurse used her finger to tap on my temple again? Haha, I was honestly distracted by her fingers instead of the needle man.
Now it’s time to finish the job – moulding & shaping!
Yay, job done!
See the instant effect on my chin?
Well, the botox will only start to take effect next week, so it’s a slow gradual change on the face shape. And your friends wouldn’t be able to see the difference! They’ll probably be like “hey xxx, did you lose weight?”
The entire consultation and process took only like an hour? Super fuss free and painless, I promise!
Gotta thank Dr Celine and the entire Astique team for the most hospitable and pleasant experience!
If you can’t wait to experience the powers of Botox & Fillers in the hands of a caring and skilled doctor like Dr. Celine, you’re in luck! So hurry, make your appointment today!
