Masseter Botox

Masseter botox is an aesthetic procedure in which the lower part of the face where the masseter muscle is located is thinned. Masseter botox is aimed at the treatment of deformities in the lower part of the face. The square face shape, which causes a masculine and rigid appearance on the face, is reduced to a more proportional face shape. Masseter muscle being too large can cause discomfort not only aesthetically but also physically. Therefore, this procedure is also applied in some cases to offer treatment both in shape and functionally.

Masseter botox does not pose a risk of pain, ache, or bruising. Many patients come on a lunch break to perform this procedure and then immediately resume work. Patients may generally notice that the masseter muscle softens within 1 week, and after 6 weeks they can see the full shape of the new jaw. Research reveals “long-term changes” in the jaw strip after 2-3 treatments. Masseter botox achieves much longer life, aesthetic and symmetrical results over time.

How does Masseter botox work?

Botox is a type of purified protein. The treatment of Botox migraines and muscle spasms is also carried out using the same bacteria and is a safe procedure when given in appropriate doses by an experienced doctor. Masseter Botox acts by blocking the activity of nerves and relaxing muscles and is used not only for cosmetic purposes but also for extensive medical procedures.

Masseter botox acts on the injection muscles by relieving them and weakening them over time. This can reduce the size of the muscles and ultimately result in a smaller jawline and a narrower-looking face. The results become noticeable after only a few weeks. To achieve the best result, it is usually recommended to treat 3 at intervals of 3-4 weeks.

Who can get a masseter botox?

All adults who are not satisfied with the shape of their jaw and are in good general health can benefit from this operation. The width of the jaw should be wide, not due to bone, but because of muscle mass.

The large and thick jaw causes a masculine and overweight appearance, especially in women. With only a few botox injections, facial shapes can become completely proportional and aesthetic.

This procedure is not recommended for pregnant or lactating mothers and people with a non-general health condition.
