I'm looking for a place to get Botox injections to reduce my masseter muscle in the Boston area

Question

I'm new to Boston area, and I'm very unfamiliar with American plastic surgeons. Right now I just want to get Botox injection to reduce my masseter muscle, does someone know how to find a doctor for that? How much will it cost? I want the 100unit type.

Dear Peiyan,Masseter Botox is a wonderful option to reduce the muscle and create a narrowed jaw appearance.  The technique is relatively simple as I'm sure you know from having had it done in your county.  Because Boston is a huge college town, we see many young Asian students just for this procedure.  Happy to help when you are ready.   I talked about this very topic at the last cosmetic conference in Las Vegas.  Video attached below.   All the best,  Dr. Onir

Botox for the masseters must be carefully placed. A facial plastic surgeon or a plastic surgeon with specialization in the face would be able to help! The AAFPRS (Facial Plastic Surgeons) website is very helpful. The ASPS (general plastic surgeons) website may be helpful as well.  I would be happy to see you in my Milford office as well.

The first place to start would be to look on the ASPS or ASAPS websites for a plastic surgeon in your area.

Botox for the masseter muscle is a fairly simple injection which helps slim the lower face and results are seen in about one month.  There are lots of providers that are able to do this.  Generally I get excellent results  with 50 units of Botox, and frequently less, depending on the size of the muscle so that  you probably don't need the 100 units that you are inquiring about.  The value of using less is that you may get the same result at a much lower cost.  I am in Worcester which is 45 minutes west of Boston and the cost of Botox is $14/unit.  Good luck.

I commonly treat patients with Botox in the masseter muscle to give patients a narrower jaw line and facial slimming.  This is an advanced Botox technique so please consult an expert in Botox injections.  Best, Dr. Green
