So I'm currently thinking about getting masseter botox. I grind my teeth a lot at night and use nightguards. I have always had pretty wide face. I Have defined jawline and very wide cheekbones. Also a large head. I do have pretty hollow cheeks and if my face gets puffy they are pretty much gone and i look terrible. My temples are pretty wide aswell from bruxism. Can I get botox to slimmer my temples? Can masseter botox slimmer my midface a little also? Does it make my cheeks look bigger? Help!

Answer: Yes - Botox can help slim both the temples and masseters.
Hi! I think a great treatment to help lift, tighten and reduce the appearance of these will be PDO threads! Threads not only lift but they work to promote and stimulate your body's natural collagen over time and create a structural foundation for new collagen to build around.
The effects of Botox are temporary, typically lasting three to four months. If you are able to animate the brows freely then the product has worn off. I encourage you to visit with your injector to discuss your concerns.
The effects of Botox are temporary, typically lasting three to four months. You should gradually see improvement over the coming months and should return to a look similar to the one you had prior to treatment.
