About Masseter Botox
Masseter Botox treats the large chewing muscle at the back of the jaw. Two things happen when that muscle is relaxed: it gradually atrophies, which slims and softens the lower face shape; and the force of clenching and grinding decreases, which can relieve jaw tension, headaches, and TMJ symptoms.
At Plump we treat masseter Botox as both a cosmetic and functional treatment. Patients come in for face slimming, for clenching relief, or for both. Dosing is higher than upper-face Botox — usually 20–40 units per side depending on muscle size — and the slimming effect develops over 6–12 weeks as the muscle reduces. Functional relief from clenching often shows up sooner.
Results from a single treatment last 4–6 months. With consistent treatment every 4–6 months, the muscle progressively reduces and most patients find the slimming effect becomes more durable over time.
Good for
- Adults bothered by a square or wide-set jaw shape
- Patients with clenching, grinding, or TMJ-related jaw tension
- People who experience tension headaches from masseter activity
- Anyone wanting non-surgical lower-face slimming
Not ideal if
- Pregnant or breastfeeding patients
- Active skin infection at the injection site
- Patients with significant facial volume loss where slimming would worsen hollowness
- Certain neuromuscular conditions — your injector will screen at consultation
