My lower face looks bulky and asymmetric. I don’t think I have TMJ but I do clench my jaws unconsciously so I’m wondering if the bulkiness is coming from my masseters. Would masseter botox improve the aesthetic of my face or would you recommend something else?

Answer: Masseter Botox Botox injected into the masseter muscles can result in a slimming effect to the jawline. The Botox lasts approximately three to four months and fades gradually. See an expert injector to learn more. I've included a video on how neuromodulators like Botox work that I hope you find helpful.

Answer: Yes - botox in the masseters can help slim the the lower part of the face. Good question. First- asymmetry is normal and everyone has this. Like being right handed vs left handed. One is stronger than the other. Please see the attached video for a good explanation. The bulkiness in the lower part of the face can be reduced with Botox. Please see the video on TMJ contouring as well.

Answer: Masseter Botox Hello! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Aesthetic Skin in Winnetka and Chicago. This is a great question. If you're noticing bulkiness and asymmetry in your lower face and suspect that clenching your jaws might be contributing, masseter Botox could be a beneficial treatment. The masseter muscles, located at the back of the jaw, can become enlarged and prominent due to habitual clenching or grinding. By injecting Botox into these muscles, you can reduce their size and activity, leading to a more contoured and balanced appearance of the lower face. This treatment not only addresses the bulkiness but can also improve overall facial symmetry. Additionally, reducing the activity of these muscles may alleviate any related discomfort from clenching. I hope this helps and best of luck!
