Introduction
The masseter muscle is located in the lower portion of the face. Because the muscle contributes to the shape of the face, patients may desire non-surgical facial slimming, also known as “masseter reduction.” The procedure may also be recommended if the patient experiences pain associated with the size of the muscle. Dr. Lewen performs non-surgical facial slimming with Botox®.
The goal of masseter reduction that is performed for cosmetic reasons is to reduce the size of the muscle. This gives the face a more consistent and slimmer appearance along the jawline.
Non-surgical facial slimming requires little to no downtime. Some patients may experience tenderness and swelling for the first one to two days, and these symptoms are localized at the injection sites. The results of masseter reduction last four to six months.
