Masseter Hypertrophy
The masseter muscle is located where the lower jaw meets the upper jaw and is a strong muscle used for chewing. Whilst it can do its job without becoming obtrusive, in some people the masseter muscle becomes very large creating a square or boxy look, that some people may find unappealing. The masseter muscle can also become pronounced in people who suffer from bruxism, or teeth grinding. Masseter Botox is a quick and safe way to treat the masseter muscle, improving quality of life for bruxism sufferers, and giving a slimmer, more contoured appearance to the shape of the face.

Who Are Good Candidates?
Good candidates are those with Bruxism or other jaw problems, that can be draining to live with. Botox is a safe, effective treatment that can improve your condition, and help to give you a better quality of life. If you are over 18, you can have Botox injections, but we will always advise you on whether this is the best option for your individual circumstances. If you have pronounced jaw muscles and would like to reduce the size of the muscle and create a slimmer, sleeker, and more defined appearance, then masseter Botox treatment may be the ideal solution.
Benefits of Masseter Muscle Botox
Bruxism or TMJ dysfunction can be difficult to live with, causing pain, and discomfort, as well as affecting the quality of sleep. This procedure can help to reduce the density of the masseter muscle, relieving the symptoms of these conditions. This can bring huge benefits to someone who has been suffering from these conditions. Some people find the square appearance of a large masseter muscle unappealing, and altering this may improve their self-image, giving them more confidence and satisfaction with their appearance.
