Can Botox injections to the temporalis muscle reduce the width of my forehead/temples?

Botox can be used to thin this area if you have hypertrophy of this muscle. I encourage you to visit with an expert injector for discussion of your concerns and to determine if you are an appropriate candidate.

Botox can be injected into these areas to create a softer look. The botox will essentially relax the muscles creating the appearance of atrophic muscles. Botox can not be used to change the size of your forehead as this is bone. I suggest consulting with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. Yes, Botox injections into the temple muscles can help reduce the facial width. Hope this helps.
