Could I benefit from masseter botox injections? (Photo)

I do not suggest injecting your masseters as this can slim your face and make you look less masculine.  Best, Dr. Emer.

 Your face looks absolutely normal and you need no treatment for your masseter muscles.                   

Thank you for your question.the pictures do not suggest that you have a "square jaw" that warrants masseter muscle reduction.Dr Karamanoukian#RealSelf100 Member

You have a nicely proportioned masculine face and in your case, Botox for the masters would not be advised.

Botox placed in the masseter muscle is a treatment for clenching and grinding and a side effect is a temporary loss of volume in the lower cheeks, making the lower face look thinner. A strong jawline is actually more desirable for a male, and in my opinion the wrong aesthetic goal for a normal handsome man such as yourself. Unless this is necessary for functional reasons, I'm not sure the outcome would be what you are after. If you still try it and then have regrets, it will always wear off.

Thank you for your photos and question.  Based off of these photos, your facial proportions look great.  It does not appear that your face is too wide.  Botox to the masseter muscle is a great way to slim down one's facial contour, but it does not appear it will benefit you much as it will make the face less angular (less square).  I hope this helps!

I don't really think that your face is that wide. However if you are clinching your masseters, Botox will help. It will somewhat slim your face too. If you don't like the results, it is back to baseline after about 4 months anyways.

First off, you look great. Second, you state that you would like a more "angular" face. Yet, Botox does precisely the opposite. By injecting Botox into the jawline (i.e. masseter muscles) we are able to SOFTEN the face, thereby making an angular face more rounded. Thus, this is not the right fit for you. The only reason to inject your jawline would be to relieve jaw pain or headaches from clenching, biting and grinding.  Cosmetically, you do not need it.  Be well!

I see no suggestion of masseter "hypertrophy" that would warrant slimming with botox or xeomin injection.  Like most people you have some facial asymmetry but have nice masculine features.  I hope that this helps.Jon A Perlman M.D., FACSCertified, American Board of Plastic SurgeryABC-TV Extreme Makeover Plastic SurgeonBeverly Hills, California
