Masseter Botox is an injectable treatment that targets the masseter muscles – the strong chewing muscles located at the sides of the jaw. These muscles can become enlarged due to genetics, teeth grinding, stress, or habits like excessive gum chewing. By injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin into these muscles, the treatment relaxes excessive muscle activity, reduces muscle size over time, and alleviates pain caused by tension or TMJ disorders.

This treatment serves both aesthetic and medical functions. Aesthetically, it slims and softens the lower face, helping to reshape a square jaw into a more refined silhouette. Medically, it helps relieve jaw tension, decreases teeth grinding, and reduces stress on the temporomandibular joint. Masseter Botox offers a safe, effective, and minimally invasive solution with results that appear naturally and gradually.

Masseter Botox works by delivering precise units of botulinum toxin into the thickest portion of the masseter muscle. Once injected, the toxin temporarily blocks nerve signals that cause excessive muscle contraction. This relaxation not only reduces painful tension, but over time also leads to a gradual decrease in muscle volume as the muscle becomes less active.

During the treatment, the doctor at our affiliated clinic will locate the borders of the masseter by asking the patient to clench. Injection points are carefully mapped to ensure the toxin reaches the lower and deeper areas of the muscle – away from the facial muscles responsible for smiling. The treatment is usually performed using fine-gauge needles, and while anesthesia may be applied, discomfort is minimal.
