Jaw Botox prices at Dernia (2026)

Jaw Botox relaxes the masseter, the chewing muscle at the angle of the jaw. When that muscle is bulky, the lower face looks square. As it relaxes, the jawline slowly tapers into a softer, slimmer shape. At Dernia Clinic Myeongdong, the price depends mainly on the toxin brand you choose and how strong your masseters are. Every option below covers both sides.

Option	What it is	Price (KRW)
Korean toxin	Botulax or Nabota, standard dose, both sides	₩59,000
Coretox	Korean toxin, standard dose, both sides	₩99,000
Xeomin	German toxin (Merz), standard dose, both sides	₩199,000
Botox (Allergan)	The original US brand, standard dose, both sides	₩290,000

Prices are in Korean won (KRW), exclude 10% VAT, and are confirmed at your consultation. Very strong masseters sometimes need a higher dose. If so, your doctor tells you the price before you agree to anything.

What's included

A consultation in English with a licensed medical doctor, who feels the muscle while you clench and checks your jaw shape
Ice or a cooling pack if you would like it; the needle is very fine and most people manage without numbing cream
The injections, placed at several small points on each side, which take about ten minutes
Aftercare advice and time to ask questions before you leave

What affects the price

Toxin brand: Korean toxins are made locally and are the most affordable. Imported brands such as Xeomin and Allergan Botox cost more in Korea.
Dose: a larger, harder masseter needs more units to relax it. People who clench or grind their teeth often fall into this group.
Your treatment history: if you have had many toxin treatments over the years, your doctor may suggest Xeomin, which is free of complexing proteins, to lower the small risk of developing resistance.
Other areas the same day: adding wrinkle or shoulder Botox changes your total, but each area keeps its own price.

How many sessions you need and the cost over a year

The slimming effect builds over two to four weeks and lasts about four to six months. In the first year, most people repeat every four to six months. Two or three sessions with a Korean toxin come to roughly ₩118,000–₩177,000 before VAT. A muscle that has been relaxed several times often stays smaller, so some people can space treatments further apart later on. See the jaw Botox results timeline for what to expect week by week, and our medical team's jaw Botox review for an honest view of its value.

How to compare jaw Botox prices between clinics

In Seoul, a low headline price can hide a smaller dose or an unnamed toxin. When you compare quotes, ask three things: which brand is used, how many units go into each side, and whether the price covers both sides. It is also reasonable to ask to see the vial. Our guide to shots, lines and cc explains how Korean clinics quote prices, so you can compare like with like.

VAT and payment

Like all cosmetic treatments in Korea, jaw Botox carries 10% VAT, so the ₩59,000 option is ₩64,900 at checkout. The VAT refund that foreign patients could once claim on cosmetic procedures ended on January 1, 2026, so there is nothing to reclaim at the airport. See payment and tax for how payment works at Dernia.

Alternatives at different budgets

Wrinkle Botox from ₩39,000 per area, if your concern is forehead, frown or crow's feet lines rather than jaw shape
Fat-dissolving injections from ₩69,000 per area, when fullness comes from fat under the chin or along the jaw rather than muscle. Our jaw Botox vs fat-dissolving injection comparison explains the difference.
Trapezius Botox from ₩129,000 for both sides, often added for a longer-looking neck and shoulder line

You can also combine jaw Botox with lifting and contouring in the V-Line Contour Package. Compare every option on our Seoul treatment prices page, or book a consultation and your doctor will confirm the dose, brand and final price before treatment.

How much is jaw Botox in Korea?

At Dernia, jaw Botox starts from ₩59,000 for both sides with a Korean toxin, before 10% VAT. Coretox is ₩99,000, Xeomin ₩199,000 and Allergan Botox ₩290,000. Your doctor confirms the dose and price at your consultation.

Is a Korean toxin as effective as Allergan Botox for the jaw?

Korean toxins such as Botulax and Nabota are widely used for masseter slimming in Korea and work in the same way. Results can vary slightly between brands and between people. Our guide to Korean Botox brands compares the options in detail.

Does the price cover both sides of the jaw?

Yes. Every price on this page covers both masseters at a standard dose. If your muscles are especially strong, your doctor may recommend a higher dose and will tell you the cost before treatment.

Can I have jaw Botox and fly home the next day?

Usually, yes. There is no wound to heal, and the slimming develops over the following weeks wherever you are. Read flying after Botox and fillers for simple travel tips.

Who should not have jaw Botox?

Avoid it if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a neuromuscular condition such as myasthenia gravis, or have an infection in the area. Tell your doctor about any medicines you take, including blood thinners, so they can confirm it is suitable.
