Masseter Botox
WHAT IS MASSETER BOTOX?
Masseter Botox is an FDA-approved, non-surgical treatment that targets the masseter muscles — the strong jaw muscles responsible for chewing and clenching. When these muscles become enlarged due to genetics, frequent gum chewing, or teeth grinding (bruxism), they can create a wider, square-shaped lower face and cause jaw discomfort.
At Sina Skin Clinic Dubai, Masseter Botox is performed by DHA-licensed specialists using premium-quality botulinum toxin to ensure precision, safety, and natural-looking results.
The treatment works by temporarily relaxing the masseter muscle through controlled injections. By blocking the nerve signals that cause excessive contraction, the muscle activity is reduced. Over time, the muscle gradually decreases in size, resulting in a softer, more contoured jawline and improved facial balance.
Initially used in the medical field to treat muscle overactivity and TMJ disorders, Masseter Botox has become one of the most trusted aesthetic solutions for jaw slimming and functional relief.

QUICK LOOK AT THE PROCEDURE
The treatment involves a series of small injections using fine needles. Most patients report minimal discomfort, and the procedure does not require anesthesia.
There is no downtime following Masseter Botox. Patients can resume their normal daily activities immediately after the procedure.
Typically, one session is sufficient. Maintenance treatments are recommended every 4 to 6 months depending on muscle strength and desired aesthetic outcome.
The procedure generally takes 15 to 20 minutes, making it convenient for individuals with busy schedules.
Initial relief from jaw tension may begin within 1 to 2 weeks. Visible slimming of the jawline develops gradually over 3 to 6 weeks as the muscle reduces in size.
For optimal and sustained results, repeat treatments are usually advised every 4 to 6 months as recommended by your aesthetic specialist.
