Masseter Muscles – Jaw Slimming
The application of Botox to the masseter muscles is a treatment for anyone suffering from jaw clenching and teeth grinding, or for anyone looking to improve their facial shape and slim their face! The effects of Botox can last anywhere from 3-4 months on average. Like any muscle, the masseters will shrink in size during that time when not being used. Once the botox wears off and the muscle is able to fully contract it will slowly begin to regrow in size but this will take a few months so treatments to this area are not needed as frequently.
