frequent questions

How does botulinum toxin work in treating the masseter major muscles and how can it help reduce the square look of the face?

Botulinum toxin works by relaxing the masseter muscles, which can cause a square face shape. By inhibiting the nerve signals to these muscles, their size is reduced, which can result in a slimmer and more aesthetic facial contour.

Is the botulinum toxin procedure in the masseter area painful?

The botulinum toxin procedure in the masseter area is usually well tolerated. The injections are quick and smooth, and many patients experience a minor stinging sensation or transient discomfort during the treatment.

How quickly can I see the results of botulinum toxin treatment for the masseters?

The first results can be seen in a few weeks, but the maximum effect sets in around two weeks. As the masseter muscles relax, the square appearance of the face may begin to diminish.

How long does the effect of botulinum toxin treatment in the masseter area last?

The effect of botulinum toxin treatment for the masseters can typically last between 4 and 6 months. To maintain results, periodic maintenance sessions may be necessary, but over time, repeated treatments may require smaller amounts of botulinum toxin.
