Benefits of Masseter Botox

‍

Masseter Botox offers a wide range of benefits, including:

‍

• Slimmer, More Defined Jawline: Reduces the appearance of a square or bulky jawline by relaxing and reducing the size of the masseter muscles.

• Teeth Grinding Relief (Bruxism): Helps alleviate the discomfort and damage caused by teeth grinding, by relaxing the jaw muscles.

• Reduced Jaw Tension: Relieves tension in the jaw muscles, reducing pain, headaches, or discomfort associated with clenching.

• Non-Surgical Treatment: Offers noticeable results without the need for invasive surgery, providing a less risky and more convenient alternative.

• Quick and Minimal Downtime: The procedure is quick, with little to no recovery time, allowing you to return to your regular activities almost immediately.

• Subtle and Natural Results: Results appear gradually and naturally, creating a more sculpted jawline without an overly dramatic change.

How Masseter Botox works

‍

During a Masseter Botox treatment, Botox is injected into the masseter muscles on both sides of the jaw. The Botox works by temporarily relaxing the muscles, which reduces their size and ability to contract. This results in a more sculpted, slimmer jawline. The procedure is quick, typically taking 15-30 minutes, and requires minimal downtime. The injections are done with a fine needle, and numbing agents may be applied to ensure comfort.

Results can be seen gradually within 2-4 weeks, as the muscle relaxes and the jawline starts to slim down. Masseter Botox can also help with bruxism (teeth grinding) by reducing the force with which the jaw muscles contract, alleviating discomfort or potential dental damage. The effects typically last 3-6 months, and repeat treatments may be needed to maintain results.

Expected Results

‍

After Masseter Botox treatment, you can expect:

‍

• Slimmer Jawline: A more defined and contoured jawline with a reduction in the appearance of a square or bulky jaw.

• Relief from Teeth Grinding: Reduced symptoms of bruxism, such as jaw pain, teeth grinding, and the resulting discomfort.

• Reduced Jaw Tension: Relief from jaw tension, headaches, or muscle stiffness caused by excessive jaw clenching.

• Natural, Gradual Results: The slimming effect on the jawline becomes more noticeable over time, creating a subtle yet transformative improvement.

• Long-Lasting Effects: Results typically last 3-6 months, with gradual fading of the effects as the Botox wears off.

Aftercare & Recovery for Masseter Botox

‍

Masseter Botox treatment requires minimal recovery time, but following these aftercare guidelines will help you achieve the best results:

‍

• Avoid Massaging Treated Areas: Refrain from massaging or rubbing the treated areas for 24 hours to allow the Botox to settle properly.

• Avoid Intense Physical Activity: Avoid strenuous exercise or activities that increase blood flow for 24-48 hours to prevent the Botox from migrating.

• Stay Upright: For the first 4 hours after treatment, try to remain upright and avoid lying down to prevent the Botox from spreading to unintended areas.

• No Alcohol for 24 Hours: Avoid alcohol consumption for 24 hours after treatment to minimize swelling and bruising.

• Sun Protection: Use a high-SPF sunscreen on your face, especially if you plan to be outside, as the skin may be more sensitive after treatment.
