🖤🖤🖤

Being a solo small business owner comes with so many challenges. I don’t have employees, a receptionist, managers, content creators, or someone managing inventory behind the scenes. It’s just me. 🤍

So when you support my business, you’re supporting a dream that has been a long time in the making.

I’ve been a Licensed Esthetician for almost 12 years, and some of you have been with me from the very beginning. Every appointment you book, every referral you send my way, every review you leave, and every time you share or recommend my business means more to me than you probably realize.

I opened my business in 2019 and was only open for 9 months before having to close during the pandemic. Looking back now, I’m incredibly grateful that I was able to keep going, grow, and build this little business into what it is today.

Your support over these past 7 years truly makes my heart burst with gratitude. I get to do something I love because you continue to choose and support me.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for trusting me. And thank you for supporting my dream. 🤍

This isn’t my usual content… there is more to the story, but this is why it’s so important to go to injectors with verifiable credentials and experience!

I take so much pride in my education, background, and continuing education. Seeing people who skirt around the laws cheapens this profession and absolutely puts patients at risk!

Go to the BEST injector… not the cheapest ❤️

Should I start asking everyone their favorite animal on their intake forms? 🤣 giving bunnies and frenchies juicy lips is my favorite pastime 🤷🏻‍♀️

I took the day “off” yesterday to do something amazing- relaxing facials for a bunch of moms who give it their all! It was so nice to turn my room into a relaxing space where we could commiserate about the world with no judgement, talk about the joys and challenges of being moms, and just sit in silence knowing that nobody needed us in that hour. I’ll definitely be doing this more often… I had a blast! And nobody knew I was up looking at Google ideas for making a relaxing spa… I’m just good at the medical stuff, ok? 😂

💉 HOW DEEP IS THE MENTALIS MUSCLE?

We often talk about treating the mentalis with botulinum toxin… but how deep is the actual muscle target?

📊 Cadaveric and ultrasound data give us some useful numbers.

At approximately 5 mm lateral to pogonion:

👉 Mean depth from skin to the superficial surface of mentalis
6.7 ± 1.4 mm

👉 Mean mentalis muscle thickness
4.0 ± 1.4 mm

👉 Mean distance between the deep surface of mentalis and bone
1.1 ± 1.0 mm

This means the mentalis occupied an approximate depth range of:

🔥 6.7 to 10.7 mm beneath the skin

The muscle was also found predominantly:

📍 5 to 10 mm lateral to the facial midline

📍 20 to 30 mm inferior to a horizontal line connecting the oral commissures

And interestingly… mentalis morphology was not identical between individuals.

🧠 86.4% demonstrated a three dimensional dome shaped morphology
🧠 13.6% demonstrated a flatter morphology

So why does this matter?

Because the mentalis is not simply a superficial chin muscle.

A very superficial botulinum toxin injection may influence the superficial fibres… but may not optimally target the deeper muscle belly.

Conversely, touching bone does not mean you are necessarily intramuscular… there is approximately 1 mm of tissue between the muscle and periosteum in the studied population.

💡 Depth matters. Anatomy matters. And anatomy varies.

These measurements should guide our understanding… not become another rigid injection recipe.
