The lower face includes the chin, the jawline, the chewing muscles and the area around the mouth. All of these work together to shape your expressions. For some people, strong muscle activity makes the chin look dimpled, the jaw look wider or the corners of the mouth point downward.
In these cases, Jeuveau for lower face rejuvenation may be worth discussing. Jeuveau (prabotulinumtoxinA-xvfs) is a botulinum toxin type A product that temporarily relaxes selected muscles. It is FDA approved for moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows, so using it in the chin, jawline, masseter or smile area is off-label and needs a careful, personal assessment.
Key Takeaways
- ✓Jeuveau relaxes muscles; it does not add volume or change bone.
- ✓The chin, jaw and mouth corners each involve different muscles.
- ✓Lower-face use is off-label, so placement and dose are planned individually.
- ✓Fillers add structure, so some faces benefit from a combined plan.

What Is a Jeuveau Lower Face Treatment?
A Jeuveau lower face treatment looks different for every person. The lower face has several muscles, and each has its own job: some move the chin, some help you chew and some pull the corners of the mouth downward. That is why treatment starts with a full facial assessment.
What Your Provider Looks At
- ✓Chin movement when you talk and pout
- ✓Jaw shape and masseter muscle size
- ✓Your smile pattern and mouth corner movement
- ✓Overall facial balance and symmetry
This helps your provider decide which area may benefit and which concerns may suit another treatment. See how the Jeuveau injection process works for a step by step overview.

How Can Jeuveau Smooth Chin Dimpling?
The mentalis muscle sits in the chin. When it is very active, the chin can look uneven or dimpled, a look often called an orange-peel chin. Relaxing this muscle may help the chin look smoother and calmer. A Jeuveau chin treatment does not add volume or change the bone of the chin. Our full guide to Jeuveau for chin dimpling explains the anatomy in detail.
Chin Dimpling and a Wide Jaw Together
Some people notice chin dimpling and a wide-looking jaw at the same time. Both may be discussed in one consultation, but not every concern should be treated with Jeuveau. A wide jaw can come from muscle, bone, facial fat or a mix of these.
Can Jeuveau Slim the Jawline?
The masseter is a large chewing muscle near the back of the jaw. When it is naturally strong or enlarged, the lower face can look wider or more square. A Jeuveau masseter treatment may reduce muscle activity there, and over time the lower face may look softer and more tapered.
This kind of Jeuveau jawline contouring works well when muscle size is the main reason for jaw width. It does not shrink the jawbone. Read Jeuveau for jawline slimming and how long masseter treatment lasts to learn more.
Can Jeuveau Lift Downturned Mouth Corners?
Some people notice the corners of the mouth point downward even when the face is relaxed. One muscle behind this is the depressor anguli oris. In selected cases, carefully placed Jeuveau may ease that downward pull for a softer, more relaxed look around the mouth.
Smile Lines Are a Different Concern
Smile lines and downturned corners are not the same issue. Smile lines can come from:
- ✓Facial movement
- ✓Volume loss
- ✓Skin changes
- ✓Facial structure
Jeuveau mainly works on muscle activity. If volume loss is the main concern, a treatment such as dermal fillers may be a better fit. If your smile shows more gum than you like, see Jeuveau for gummy smile.
What Are the Benefits of Jeuveau Lower Face Contouring?
When muscle activity is part of the concern, a lower face plan may offer:
Smoother Chin
Softer-looking chin dimpling and less puckering when you talk.
Slimmer Profile
Less visible masseter bulk and a more tapered lower face over time.
Relaxed Mouth
Softer mouth corners and a calmer resting expression.
What Happens During a Jeuveau Visit?
There is no machine or device cycle. Treatment is a short visit with small injections. For the masseter, you may be asked to clench your jaw so your provider can see and feel the muscle. For the chin or smile area, you may be asked to smile, speak or move your mouth.
The amount used depends on your muscle strength, facial structure, the areas treated and your goals. A personalized quote is more useful than a general price. Jeuveau units are product specific and cannot be converted to units of other toxins, which our comparison of Botox vs Dysport vs Jeuveau explains.
How Do Jeuveau and Fillers Work Differently?
| Treatment | What It Does | Often Considered For |
|---|---|---|
| Jeuveau | Relaxes muscle activity | Chin dimpling, strong masseters, downturned corners |
| Dermal filler | Adds volume and structure | Weak chin, soft jawline, volume loss |
| Combined plan | Movement plus structure | Several lower-face concerns at once |
Someone with strong masseter muscles may benefit from muscle-focused treatment, while someone with a recessed chin may benefit more from filler. Read whether jawline fillers can reshape the jaw and our Botox and fillers guide to compare.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Jeuveau improve the lower face?
Jeuveau relaxes selected muscles. Depending on the area, it may soften chin dimpling, reduce masseter bulk or ease the downward pull near the mouth corners.
What are Jeuveau lower face before and after results like?
Results depend on the area. Chin treatment may look smoother, masseter treatment may make the lower face look less wide over time, and mouth corner treatment may soften a downturned look.
Jeuveau vs Botox for lower face rejuvenation: which is better?
Neither is right for everyone. The choice depends on your goals, anatomy and your injector’s advice. Jeuveau and Botox units are not interchangeable.
Can Jeuveau be used for facial slimming?
Yes, Jeuveau facial slimming may be discussed when strong masseter muscles make the lower face look wider. This is an off-label use planned after an assessment.
Is Jeuveau in the lower face FDA approved?
Jeuveau is FDA approved for frown lines between the eyebrows. Chin, jaw, masseter and mouth corner treatment is off-label and should be planned by an experienced injector.
