Answer: Masseter dysport Hello!Thank you for your question. It is possible to take up to 14 days for Dysport to do its job. However, 15 units of Dysport to each masseter is not enough units to relax the large masseter muscle. I typically use 20-40 units of Botox to each masseter. I like to use Dysport for softer smaller muscles, such as crows feet, FH and glabella. I think both nueromodulators are fabulous for different areas of the face and I choose Botox for masseters. Good luck with your journey. It is very important that you find a trained RN or MD injector that you are able to trust and build a relationship with.

Answer: Typically Not Masseter injections are becoming very popular. Not only do they give relief of jaw and possibly TMJ pain from tooth grinding, but they can actually slim the face as well by decreasing the bulk of the masseter muscle and slimming the lateral face. This typically requires 15-30 Botox equivalent units (45-90 units Dysport) injected into each masseter. This will take 3-7 days to fully work, but should not take 14 days. If you are not seeing a difference after 14 days, its possible that either you need additional units injected, or there may be another cause of your jaw or TMJ pain.
