What to do if your face becomes stiff after face-lift injections

Although face-slimming injections are good and can make people's facial contours smaller and make people look better, if the injection method is improper or the material is unsafe, face-slimming injections also have many side effects. For example, facial stiffness is one of the biggest sequelae of face-slimming injections. However, facial stiffness after a face-slimming injection is not irreparable. Here are some repair methods for you!

1. Botox antibody to restore natural

First of all, if facial stiffness occurs after a face-slimming injection, and if it is severe and there is strong discomfort, you can choose to inject botulinum toxin antibodies to promote the natural recovery of facial muscle tissue. Although choosing botulinum toxin antibodies is not an economical option, it is a more direct method when you urgently need to solve the problem of facial stiffness.

2. Train the masseter muscles and strengthen chewing exercises

Of course, if you want to save your face from becoming stiff after a face-slimming injection, you can also do chewing exercises to help your masseter muscles recover faster. But it should be noted that after the masseter muscle is stimulated, it will return to a state close to that before treatment. So be sure to be cautious.

Foods that can be used for chewing training include: 1. Harder foods: nuts, sugarcane; 2. Tough foods: animal tendons (such as beef tendons, sheep tendons); 3. Foods that need to be chewed repeatedly: chewing gum, etc.

3. Let nature take its course

If you still don't want to give up the effect of the face-slimming injection, then after facial stiffness occurs, you can also let nature take its course to allow the masseter muscles to recover, thereby saving the stiff face. Based on clinical experience, the effects of botulinum toxin usually last for four months. If you often eat hard snacks (such as rusks, sugar cane, etc.), the facial stiffness will improve earlier.

4. Avoid massage on a daily basis

If your face becomes stiff after a face-slimming injection, ladies should never use their hands to massage it at this time, because the botulinum toxin liquid that enters the masseter muscle after massage will penetrate into the adjacent facial muscles, thereby aggravating the unnatural expression. In this case, it will take more than 8 weeks for the expression to return to normal from stiffness.
