How Can I Tell if I Need Botox in my Masseter Muscle?

Catya
Hi, I have a very large jaw and was thinking of having it reduced by Botox in my masseter muscle. How do I know if this will be successful for me, ie if my large jaw is caused by my masseter muscle and not just my jawbone...? Thanks for your help!
