I got Korean Botox in my masseter more than four months ago as per my doctor advice, now I think I didn’t even need it. It has changed my smile and there’s volume loss and jowls on one side. My face looks asymmetrical and older. When will it wear off as I am 4 months out already?
Answer: Botox to masseters If you got botox to the masseters, it is likely you got a dose of 20 to 30 units on each side. Although botox usually lasts 3-4 months in other areas of the face, I find botox at the higher doses in the masseters lasts approximately 6 months.

Answer: Botox in masseter muscle changed my smile and erased my dimples, will my face go back to normal? Hi Sandya7,Botox for the masseters can take between 3-6 months to wear off. Actually, because of the movement while talking, eating, speaking, the effects of Botox in the area are bound to wear off sooner.All the best, Justin Harper, M.D.
