FTT Skin Clinics – Masseter Botox Treatment.

Masseter Botox treatment, also known as jawline slimming or jawline contouring, involves the injection of Botulinum Toxin Type A into the masseter muscles, which are located at the jawline. This relaxes the muscles, causing them to shrink in size over time, resulting in a more refined and contoured jawline.

Benefits of Masseter Botox Treatment.

  • Achieve a slimmer jawline: Reduce the appearance of a square or overly prominent jawline for a more aesthetically pleasing facial profile.
  • Alleviate jaw pain: Masseter Botox can help alleviate symptoms associated with bruxism (teeth grinding) and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders by relaxing the muscles responsible for these conditions.
  • Non-surgical solution: Unlike surgical procedures such as jawline reduction surgery, Masseter Botox treatment is minimally invasive and requires no downtime, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately.
  • Long-lasting results: While individual results may vary, many patients experience noticeable improvements in jawline contour that can last for several months.

The treatment.

  • Consultation: Prior to treatment, you will have a consultation with our experienced medical professional to discuss your goals and medical history.
  • Treatment: During the procedure, Botulinum Toxin Type A is injected into the masseter muscles using a fine needle. The injections are relatively painless and typically take around 15-30 minutes to complete.
  • Post-treatment care: After the procedure, you may experience mild swelling or bruising at the injection sites, but this should subside within a few days. You can resume your normal activities immediately following treatment.

Is the Treatment Right for Me?

  • Desire a more defined jawline
  • Experience jaw pain or discomfort due to bruxism or TMJ disorders
  • Prefer a non-surgical alternative to jawline reduction surgery During your consultation, our medical professional will assess your candidacy for treatment and address any concerns you may have.
