South Hackensack residents choose us because we do things differently. Every client gets a complimentary consultation, personalized treatment plans, and a two-week follow-up with touch-ups if needed. No rushing, no surprises, just the kind of care that builds lasting relationships.
Your masseter Botox treatment starts with a complimentary consultation where we assess your jaw muscles and discuss your goals. Whether you’re dealing with teeth grinding, TMJ pain, or want a slimmer jawline, we create a treatment plan that makes sense for you.
The actual procedure takes about 15 minutes. Using a fine needle, we inject Botox directly into the masseter muscles on both sides of your jaw. These are deeper injections than traditional Botox, targeting the large muscles responsible for chewing and clenching.
You’ll start noticing changes within a week as the muscles begin to relax. Over the next few months, the overactive muscles gradually reduce in size, giving you that slimmer facial contour while relieving tension and pain. Results typically last 4-6 months, and we’ll see you for a complimentary follow-up at two weeks to ensure everything looks perfect.

Yes, masseter Botox can significantly slim your jawline by reducing the size of overactive jaw muscles. The masseter muscles are responsible for chewing and can become enlarged from teeth grinding, jaw clenching, or genetics, creating a square or heavy appearance.
When Botox is injected into these muscles, it temporarily blocks nerve signals, causing the muscles to relax and gradually shrink over time. Most clients notice initial changes within a week, with full results visible after 4-6 weeks. The jawline becomes more V-shaped or oval, creating a more balanced facial profile. Results typically last 4-6 months, and many clients find their muscles stay smaller with regular treatments.
Absolutely. Masseter Botox is highly effective for treating teeth grinding (bruxism) and TMJ-related jaw pain. These conditions often stem from overactive jaw muscles that clench or grind involuntarily, especially during sleep.
By relaxing the masseter muscles, Botox reduces the intensity of grinding and clenching, which relieves pressure on your teeth, jaw joints, and surrounding muscles. Many clients notice less morning jaw pain, fewer tension headaches, and better sleep quality within days of treatment. The therapeutic benefits typically last 4-6 months, and regular treatments can help break the cycle of chronic jaw tension.
Masseter Botox results typically last 4-6 months, though some clients enjoy benefits for up to 8 months with regular treatments. The timeline depends on your metabolism, muscle strength, and activity level.
You’ll notice initial muscle relaxation within a week, with full jaw slimming effects visible after 4-6 weeks as the muscles gradually reduce in size. The therapeutic benefits for teeth grinding and TMJ pain often appear even sooner. As the Botox naturally metabolizes, muscle activity slowly returns, but many clients find their muscles don’t return to their original size, especially with consistent treatments every 4-6 months.
Masseter Botox is very safe when performed by qualified injectors like our certified team at House of Ness. As a platinum Allergan partner, we use only authentic products and follow strict safety protocols.
Common side effects are minimal and temporary—you might experience slight swelling or tenderness at injection sites for a day or two. Some clients notice minor changes in chewing strength initially, but this normalizes as you adjust. Serious complications are extremely rare with proper technique and authentic products. We always conduct a thorough medical history review during your consultation to ensure you’re a good candidate, and our two-week follow-up allows us to monitor your results closely.
Your masseter Botox appointment at House of Ness is straightforward and comfortable. We start with a consultation to assess your jaw muscles and discuss your goals, then clean the treatment area and mark injection points.
The actual injections take about 10-15 minutes. We use fine needles to inject Botox into multiple points along each masseter muscle—these are deeper injections than facial Botox, but most clients find them quite tolerable. You might feel pressure or mild discomfort, but nothing that requires numbing. Afterward, you can return to normal activities immediately, though we recommend avoiding intense exercise for 24 hours and sleeping upright the first night to optimize results.
