Masseter Botox

A treatment that relieves teeth grinding and slims and softens the lower third of the face.

Overview

The masseter is a powerful chewing muscle that closes the jaw. When it thickens due to teeth grinding (bruxism) and genetic predisposition, the lower part of the face takes on a square appearance.

Masseter botox reduces the overactivity of this muscle, softening facial lines and significantly relieving jaw and temple pain caused by teeth grinding.

Who is it for?

  • Those who suffer from nighttime teeth grinding and clenching
  • Those who want to soften a square jaw appearance
  • Those who wake up with jaw, temple, and headaches in the morning
  • Those who feel fatigue in the jaw joint
