Trending: Jelly Roll botox

'Jelly roll botox’ refers to the use of botulinum toxin in the under eye, lower eyelid area, often referred to as the ‘jelly roll’.  The jelly roll is prominent in some people and can be treated with botox to stop it from protruding.

This term specifically refers to the hyperactivity of the obicularis oculi muscle in the under eye area just beneath the lower eye lid. When the muscle here is very active it the skin up creating a “roll” of skin. 

Botox treatments in this area, whilst still far less popular than the traditional upper face zones, are growing in demand. This is because it offers a very select group of patients an effective option for treating an issue that typically requires more invasive surgical procedures. 

By strategically injecting botox into the lower eyelid area the jelly roll can be minimised or softened.  However, it’s important to assess whether this presentation is due to muscle activity, fluid or fat accumulation. Jelly roll botox is only suitable in the first case; herniated fat, excess skin and festoons will require surgical intervention. 

Jelly roll botox is already a popular treatment in the US and Korea. With the rise of social media content this treatment is growing in popularity in Europe.
