You stop noticing the frown lines between your brows every time you look in the mirror. Your forehead smooths out without losing the ability to show expression. Crow’s feet fade, and your face looks rested instead of tired.
That’s what Botox does when it’s done right. It relaxes the muscles that create those deep creases from years of squinting, frowning, and raising your eyebrows. The result is softer, smoother skin that still moves naturally.
If you’ve been dealing with a square or heavy jawline, masseter Botox can slim the lower face by reducing the bulk of overactive chewing muscles. You get a more tapered, balanced profile without surgery or downtime. And if you grind your teeth at night or wake up with jaw soreness, those same cosmetic injections can ease the tension that’s been wearing down your enamel and triggering headaches.
We’ve been serving Queens since 2009, and the injector leading our treatments is an Allergan Top 100 provider—a distinction earned by fewer than 1% of injectors nationwide. That’s not marketing talk. It’s recognition based on volume, skill, and results.
Every treatment uses FDA-approved Botox, and every consultation starts with understanding what you actually want—not upselling you on things you don’t need. Whether you’re coming in for forehead lines, crow’s feet, or facial contouring with jaw slimming, our approach stays the same: precise, conservative, and focused on keeping you looking like yourself.
Pomonok residents don’t have to drive into Manhattan for this level of care. You’re close enough to get expert injections without the commute, the markup, or the wait times that come with high-traffic areas.
Your first visit starts with a consultation. You’ll talk through what bothers you—whether it’s lines on your forehead, tension in your jaw, or both. We’ll evaluate your facial anatomy, watch how your muscles move, and map out exactly where to place each injection for the best result.
The actual treatment takes about 15 minutes. A fine needle delivers small amounts of Botox into specific muscles. Most people describe it as a quick pinch, nothing more. No numbing is usually needed, though ice or topical cream is available if you’re concerned about discomfort.
After the injections, you can go right back to your day. No bandages, no recovery period. You’ll be told to avoid rubbing the treated areas and to skip intense workouts for 24 hours, but that’s it. Results start showing up within a few days, with full effects visible around two weeks. The smoothing lasts three to six months, depending on your metabolism and muscle activity.

Every Botox session at Dolce Aesthetics NY includes a personalized assessment of your facial structure and movement patterns. We don’t use a one-size-fits-all approach—dosing is tailored to your muscle strength, your aesthetic goals, and whether you’re treating cosmetic concerns, functional issues like TMJ, or both.
For wrinkle reduction, common treatment areas include the forehead, the space between your brows (the “11” lines), and crow’s feet around the eyes. For masseter Botox, injections go into the jaw muscles to reduce grinding, ease tension headaches, and create a slimmer lower face over time.
Pomonok is part of a Queens community where people value straightforward care and real results. You’re not far from Flushing, Fresh Meadows, or Kew Gardens Hills—all neighborhoods where residents deal with the same stressors that lead to clenching, grinding, and premature aging. Whether it’s long commutes, demanding jobs, or just the pace of life in New York, those habits show up on your face and in your jaw. Botox addresses both.
Botox results typically last three to six months. The exact duration depends on your metabolism, how active your facial muscles are, and the area being treated. Masseter Botox for jaw slimming can last closer to four to six months because those muscles are larger and take longer to regain full strength.
Most people schedule maintenance appointments every three to four months to keep results consistent. Over time, some patients find they can go a bit longer between sessions because the muscles start to “learn” the relaxed state. But that’s not guaranteed—it varies person to person.
If you’re using Botox for TMJ or teeth grinding, you might notice the tension creeping back as the effects wear off. That’s your signal to book a follow-up. Staying on a regular schedule prevents the muscles from building back up to the point where you’re dealing with the same pain or cosmetic concerns all over again.
Not if it’s done correctly. The “frozen” look happens when too much Botox is injected or when it’s placed in the wrong spots. Skilled injectors know how to relax the muscles that cause wrinkles without eliminating all movement.
Your forehead should still be able to show some expression. Your eyebrows should still lift when you’re surprised. The goal is to soften the lines, not paralyze your face. That requires understanding facial anatomy and dosing conservatively—especially if it’s your first time.
At Dolce Aesthetics NY, our approach is to start with the amount that will give you noticeable improvement without overdoing it. If you want more smoothing after two weeks, a touch-up can be added. It’s easier to add a few units than to reverse an overly aggressive treatment.
You should look refreshed and rested, not blank. If someone asks if you got work done, it should be because you look great—not because your face doesn’t move.
Yes. Masseter Botox is one of the most effective non-surgical treatments for bruxism (teeth grinding) and chronic jaw clenching. It works by relaxing the masseter muscles, which are the large muscles on the sides of your jaw that you use for chewing.
When these muscles are overactive—whether from stress, sleep habits, or just how you’re wired—they can cause a range of problems. You might wake up with a sore jaw, develop tension headaches, wear down your teeth, or even crack a molar. Botox reduces the force of those contractions, which takes pressure off your teeth and joints.
The treatment doesn’t eliminate your ability to chew. You’ll still be able to eat normally. What it does is dial down the intensity of the clenching, especially at night when you’re not aware you’re doing it. Most people notice relief within a week or two, and the effects last about four to six months.
If you also want a slimmer jawline, masseter Botox delivers that as a bonus. As the muscle relaxes and shrinks slightly over time, the lower face becomes more contoured and less square.
The product is the same—FDA-approved Botox. The difference is where it’s injected and what you’re trying to achieve.
For wrinkles, Botox goes into the smaller muscles of the upper face: the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes. The goal is to stop repetitive movements that create creases in the skin. You’re treating cosmetic concerns—lines that make you look older or more tired than you feel.
For the jaw, Botox is injected into the masseter muscles, which are much larger and stronger. The goal here can be cosmetic (slimming a square jawline), therapeutic (relieving TMJ pain or teeth grinding), or both. The doses are higher because you’re working with bigger muscles, and the results take a bit longer to show up—usually a few weeks for slimming, though pain relief can happen faster.
Both treatments are quick, minimally invasive, and done in the same appointment if you’re addressing multiple concerns. We’ll adjust the technique and dosing based on what you need.
Botox is typically priced per unit or per treatment area. In the New York area, you can expect to pay anywhere from $12 to $25 per unit, depending on the provider’s experience and location. A single treatment area—like the forehead or crow’s feet—usually requires 10 to 25 units, which puts the cost between $250 and $600.
If you’re treating multiple areas (forehead, frown lines, and crow’s feet, for example), the total will be higher. Masseter Botox for jaw slimming or TMJ relief typically requires 40 to 60 units total (20 to 30 per side), so that can range from $600 to $1,200.
At Dolce Aesthetics NY, pricing is transparent. You’ll know exactly how many units you need and what the cost will be before any injections happen. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges. If you’re a first-time patient, the consultation will include a breakdown of what’s recommended and what it will cost, so you can decide if it fits your budget.
Some practices offer package deals or membership programs that bring the per-unit cost down if you’re planning to maintain regular treatments. It’s worth asking about those options if you know you’ll be coming back every few months.
No. Botox is often called a “lunchtime procedure” because you can get it done and go right back to work, errands, or whatever else is on your schedule. There’s no recovery period, no bandages, and no need to take time off.
You might see some minor redness or small bumps at the injection sites, but those usually fade within an hour or two. Bruising is possible, especially if you’re on blood thinners or take supplements like fish oil, but it’s not common and can be covered with makeup if needed.
The main aftercare instructions are simple: don’t rub or massage the treated areas for at least 24 hours, avoid lying down flat for four hours after the injections, and skip intense exercise or anything that gets your heart rate way up for the rest of the day. These precautions help keep the Botox in place and prevent it from migrating to nearby muscles.
You won’t see results immediately. It takes a few days for the Botox to start working, and about two weeks for the full effect to show. During that time, you can go about your life as usual—no one will know you had anything done unless you tell them.
