Masseter (Botox)
Achieve a sophisticated, V-shaped facial contour while finding relief from the symptoms of teeth grinding (bruxism) with our Masseter Neuro-Modulation at Rose Hill Aesthetics. The masseter muscles, positioned at the angle of the jaw, can become over-developed due to genetics or chronic clenching. By expertly administering Botulinum Toxin into these powerful muscles, we facilitate temporary relaxation, resulting in a visible slimming of the lower face. This clinical approach not only refines your aesthetic profile but also dramatically reduces jaw tension and the associated discomfort of tension headaches.

Benefits of Masseter Botox
Jawline Slimming: Reduces the size of the masseter muscles for a more tapered, aesthetically pleasing V-shaped jawline.
Relieves Bruxism/Clenching: Alleviates involuntary teeth grinding and clenching, reducing wear on teeth and morning jaw pain.
Reduces Headaches: Lessens tension headaches and migraines often caused by chronic clenching and muscle strain.
Non-Surgical Contouring: Provides a noticeable change in facial shape without the need for invasive procedures or surgical downtime.

Key Benefits
-
Architectural Jaw Slimming Effectively reduces muscle hypertrophy to create a softer, more tapered, and contoured lower facial profile.
-
Clinical Tension Reduction Proactively manages bruxism (grinding) to protect dental health and alleviate chronic jaw-related pain.
-
Non-Surgical Refinement Achieves significant facial thinning and "V-line" results without the need for invasive bone-reduction surgery.
Masseter Slimming
A specialized clinical protocol designed to refine the jawline and alleviate bruxism tension at Rose Hill Aesthetics.
Muscular Palpation
We begin by palpating the masseter muscles while you clench your teeth to identify the areas of maximum hypertrophy. This allows us to map the precise injection grid required to achieve an even, symmetrical slimming effect.
Deep Neuro-Modulation
Using precision clinical needles, the Botulinum Toxin is administered directly into the belly of the masseter muscle. This targeted delivery focuses on the lower third of the jaw to ensure aesthetic slimming without affecting your smile.
Tension De-activation
Within 1 week, the neuro-modulator begins to soften the bite force. The primary muscles responsible for grinding and clenching are de-activated, providing significant relief from jaw tension and bruxism-related headaches.
Structural Contouring
The visible slimming effect develops progressively over 4 to 8 weeks as the muscle volume naturally decreases from lack of use. This results in a softer, more tapered "V-line" jawline and a refined lower facial profile.
Jawline Contouring Protocol
Optimizing V-Line slimming & bruxism relief
Anti-Inflammatory Restriction:
To minimize potential bruising in the jaw area, avoid blood-thinning agents such as Aspirin, Ibuprofen, and high doses of Vitamin E for 5 days prior to your session. Refrain from alcohol for 24 hours.
Dental Health Awareness:
Please ensure you do not have any active dental infections or major dental work (root canals or extractions) scheduled for 2 weeks before or after your treatment, as this can increase the risk of localized inflammation.
Neuromuscular Screening:
During your clinical assessment, please disclose if you have any pre-existing difficulty swallowing or speaking, as well as any history of neuromuscular disorders that may be contra-indicated with Botulinum Toxin.
Facial Cleanliness:
Arrive with the lower face free of heavy makeup or thick SPF. We will provide a clinical-grade sterilization of the masseter region to ensure the micro-injections are administered into a pristine field.
Muscular Rest:
Avoid chewing gum or eating excessively tough, "chewy" foods (like steak or hard candy) for the first 48 hours. Allowing the masseter muscle to rest immediately after treatment helps the toxin bind effectively to the targeted fibers.
Localized Stability:
Do not rub, massage, or apply firm pressure to the jawline for 24 hours. Avoid using facial massage tools or undergoing professional facial treatments for 1 week to prevent the product from migrating to adjacent smile muscles.
Thermal & Activity Guidance:
Refrain from strenuous cardiovascular exercise, saunas, and steam rooms for 48 hours. Increased blood flow to the face can exacerbate localized swelling and interfere with the initial binding phase.
The Slimming Timeline:
Bruxism relief (reduced clenching) is typically felt within 1 week. However, the aesthetic slimming of the jawline is a gradual process that peaks at 4 to 8 weeks as the muscle volume naturally reduces.
