Chewing a gum after the Botox procedure

Non-surgical Editor Nick Posting update : 2021.01.20



Most of you may have heard that especially after jaw or jawline Botox procedures, it is not allowed to chew a gum or eat some tough products such as meat and etc. The reason for that is that it may decrease the effect of Botox, thus, many clinics do not recommend it.


Exceptionally, our She's Plastic Surgery Clinic does the opposite: we give a gum for our customers to chew after jaw Botox. Why do you think that it? Well, the reason is that it will improve the effect of the procedure.

Why do you think that it? Well, the reason is that it will improve the effect of the procedure. This sounds absurd, does it not? In our clinic, when a jaw Botox procedures finishes, right after that we give a gum that our customers should chew for only 30 minutes.


By doing so, the Botox injection will evenly spread in the jaw and jawline area so that the effect doubles. After that, it is required to avoid tough products such as gums, meat. This is the safest way to see the effect of the procedure.


The peak of the effect comes in 2-3 weeks after the procedure and lasts for 5-6 months on average. It is recommended to repeat the procedure before the effect of previous Botox injection disappears. Only then, you can maintain the effect of the procedure to the maximum.
