NYC Botox Jaw Reduction (Masseter Botox)

If you’re unhappy with the shape of your face, consider a Botox jaw reduction at our NYC medical day spa. The Botox jaw reduction is a non-surgical procedure that can give a softer angle to your jaw and an attractive oval shape to your face.

The Botox jaw reduction treatment is designed to temporarily reduce the size of the masseter, the main muscle responsible for clenching the jaw and chewing. When the masseter develops, it gives the face a strong, square jaw line.

You can find out for yourself how developed your masseter is by biting down and feeling your outer jaw line by your ear. If the muscle you feel is hard and large, your masseter is well developed, and you probably have a square jaw line.

Since a strong jaw line is generally a more masculine trait, many female patients ask for our NYC Botox jaw reduction to give their faces a softer, more feminized shape. This effect is particularly noticeable in Asian females, where an oval facial shape can result in a more graceful appearance.

The treatment works because the Botox weakens the masseter, causing it to shrink over time. Because of this, the treatment doesn’t work instantaneously – it will usually take one to three months for results to show. The best results will usually about come three to nine months after treatment. Many doctors recommend that Botox jaw reductions be performed annually for best results.
