Jaw slimming with masseter Botox near Chiswick — reduces jaw clenching, relieves jaw pain and creates a softer facial profile. £450.
Masseter Botox involves injecting a muscle-relaxing protein into the masseter muscles — the large chewing muscles on either side of the jaw. This reduces the bulk of the muscle over time, creating a slimmer, softer jawline. It also significantly reduces jaw clenching, making it an effective treatment for both cosmetic and functional concerns.
Cosmetically, masseter Botox slims a wide or square jaw, creating a more oval facial shape. Functionally, it reduces the force of jaw clenching, which relieves jaw pain, headaches and the tooth damage associated with bruxism. Many patients seek it for both reasons simultaneously.
Following consultation, a series of small injections are made into the masseter muscle on each side of the jaw. Treatment takes approximately 20–30 minutes. The muscle begins to reduce in size over 4–6 weeks as reduced activity causes it to atrophy gradually. Full results are visible at 2–3 months.
Results typically last 4–6 months for the functional (clenching) effects, and 6–12 months for the cosmetic (slimming) effect. Regular treatment maintains results and gradually trains the muscle to remain smaller.
