How much it cost for a jaw reduction using Botox? (Photo)

Botox cost will vary greatly on the injectors experience and the clinic you are going to.  Typically you will see results in 1-2 sessions.

Thank you for sharing your question and photo. Botox to the masseter muscles can soften the muscles and slim the appearance of the jawline. For some, these muscles can be very strong and require more Botox units. On average, I treat the masseters with 20-30 units of Botox depending on the strength of the muscle. The effects of Botox last about 3-4 months, at which time the procedure can be repeated to maintain results. The price for this procedure varies among providers and is usually calculated by the unit. For more information, please schedule a consultation with a board-certified specialist who is experienced with Botox injections. 

Botox in combination with radiofrequency treatments can reshape the jawline. It may take a series of treatments. Botox results last 3-4 months. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for sharing your question and photograph.  If during an examination the size of your masseter muscles is indeed large they can be injected with 20-25 units of Botox to help atrophy them.  This can help slim your face.  Results can last up to 6 months and would require serial treatments to continue the effect.  If you pursue additional botox into your temporalis muscle you may also be able to help with your teeth clenching.  Hope this helps.

Thank you for your question. Botox cannot address the shape of your jaw, but it is a non-surgical procedure that rejuvenates the facial appearance and can lessen the lines and wrinkles of the lower face. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.
Best wishes,

For masseter reduction it usually takes about 40 units in each muscle but if they are uneven to start with this could vary a little. cost depends on where you are and in Indiana it is not that expensive--perhaps a few hundred dollars but be sure you see an experienced board certified dermatologist such as Dr Bill Hanke in Carmel. it will last 6-9 months

Hi,You are referring to injecting Botox into the bite muscles which can lead to a squared appearance when enlarged.  Usually 20-30 units are injected per side.  Most providers charge by the number of units used.  In my area, it would generally fall in the range of $500 to $700 for 25 units per side (50 units total).

Thanks for sharing your question and photo. When it comes to face slimming with Botox, I usually start by injecting 20-25 units of Botox per masseter muscle. That is a total dose of 40-50 units of Botox per treatment session. The results last 4-6 months. I usually recommend that patients see me for repeat treatment 3 times a year for the first year and then we can try to space the treatments further out the 2nd year (maybe 2 sessions/year). Most patient requires 2-3 treatment session to see substancial results for face slimming. 

I do a great deal of Botox for the masseter muscle for facial slimming.  It is a process and takes repeated injections to shrink the muscle over time. I also recommend to my patients to get a night guard to help with bruxism.  Please consult an expert in Botox and facial slimming.  Best, Dr. Green

Dear Sonada Thank you for your question. The first thing to judge is whether it is indeed the masseter muscle that is the problem or the bony shape of your jaw.Only if the muscle is enlarged significantly will using botox make any difference.I personally am very careful not to overdo this area and tend to use less botox than some eg 10 - 15 units per side is a decent dose.Most of my patients describe a year free from problems before they come back for their next treatment.Kind Regards Dr Dinesh Maini Zenith Cosmetic Clinics
