Masseter Botox

Masseter Botox: Jaw Slimming Treatment

Are you among the millions experiencing teeth grinding and jaw clenching, known as Bruxism? This condition not only leads to headaches and jaw issues but can also cause dental damage. However, relief might be found through Botox injections targeting the chewing muscles in the cheek.

Procedure Overview:

Botox injected into the jaw can also be utilized for facial contouring, specifically targeting the masseter muscles at the back of the jaw to achieve a slimmer, more defined facial appearance. This process, known as masseter reduction, addresses hypertrophic growth of the masseter muscles, which can contribute to a square-shaped face. Beyond cosmetic benefits, many individuals suffering from bruxism also experience pain and discomfort, often treated with specialized splints and physiotherapy.

How it Works:

During the procedure, small doses of botulinum toxin are injected directly into the masseter muscles on each side of the face, causing the muscles to relax and reducing grinding and hypertrophy. While voluntary movements like chewing and facial expressions remain unaffected, patients typically experience a slimming effect on the face and jawline, with results visible within 2 to 8 weeks. The treatment boasts minimal pain and no downtime, with results lasting three to four months on average.

Results and Considerations:

Jawline slimming treatment can dramatically transform facial contours, transitioning from a square, masculine jaw to a narrower, more oval-shaped face within weeks. Depending on individual  needs, results may vary, with some patients requiring repeat treatments every 4-8 weeks for optimal outcomes. Side effects are minimal, with potential slight discomfort during injections and rare instances of botulinum toxin spread from the injection site.
