You wake up without that familiar jaw soreness. Your face looks naturally slimmer in photos, and you’re not unconsciously clenching your teeth during stressful meetings anymore.
The constant headaches that used to plague your mornings? Gone. Your jaw moves freely when you eat, laugh, or speak. Friends notice something different but can’t quite put their finger on what—and that’s exactly how it should be.
Within two weeks, you’ll see the facial slimming effects taking shape. By four weeks, the transformation is complete. Your jawline appears more defined and feminine, while the chronic tension that used to keep you up at night becomes a distant memory.
House of Ness isn’t just another med spa. We’re led by a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and staffed by certified, licensed injectors who specialize in masseter Botox treatments.
As a platinum-level Allergan partner—putting us in the top 1% of practices nationwide—we’ve earned our reputation through results, not marketing. Great Kills Park residents choose us because we understand the unique needs of busy professionals who want natural-looking outcomes without the drama.
Our approach combines advanced injectable techniques with medical-grade skincare, ensuring your results last longer and look better. Every client receives a complimentary consultation, personalized treatment plan, and two-week follow-up with touch-ups if needed.
Your journey starts with a complimentary consultation where we assess your jaw muscles and discuss your goals. No pressure, no upselling—just honest conversation about what masseter Botox can and can’t do for you.
During the 15-20 minute treatment, we use ultra-fine needles to precisely inject Botox into your masseter muscles. Most clients describe it as a minor pinprick sensation. You can return to work immediately—many of our Great Kills Park clients schedule treatments during lunch breaks.
Within a few days, you’ll notice reduced jaw tension and teeth grinding. The facial slimming effects become visible around two weeks, with full results appearing by four weeks. We schedule a follow-up appointment to ensure you’re completely satisfied with your outcome.

Your masseter Botox treatment includes everything you need for optimal results. We start with a thorough facial assessment and muscle evaluation, followed by precise injections using authentic Allergan products.
Unlike many Staten Island practices that charge by the unit, we provide transparent, area-based pricing that eliminates surprise costs. Your treatment includes the two-week follow-up appointment and any necessary touch-ups to ensure perfect symmetry.
Great Kills Park residents appreciate our comprehensive approach that extends beyond the injection itself. We provide detailed aftercare instructions, access to our medical-grade skincare line to enhance your results, and participation in the Allē rewards program for future savings. Military personnel, nurses, and first responders receive special pricing recognition for their service.
Masseter Botox typically ranges from $400-$1,200 per session, depending on the strength of your jaw muscles and the number of units needed. At House of Ness, we provide transparent, area-based pricing rather than charging per unit, which can become expensive with stronger masseter muscles.
During your complimentary consultation, we’ll assess your specific needs and provide an exact quote with no hidden fees. Most Great Kills Park clients require treatment every 4-6 months to maintain results. We also participate in the Allē rewards program and offer special pricing for military, nurses, and first responders.
No, properly administered masseter Botox will not impair your ability to chew, talk, or smile normally. We use precise dosing that weakens the muscle enough to provide relief and slimming effects while preserving essential jaw function.
Your masseter is just one of several muscles involved in chewing, so reducing its activity actually helps prevent the overuse that causes TMJ pain and teeth grinding. Most clients report that eating becomes more comfortable after treatment because they’re no longer dealing with chronic jaw tension and pain.
Our Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and licensed injectors have extensive experience with facial anatomy, ensuring your treatment enhances function rather than compromising it.
Masseter Botox results typically last 3-4 months, though some clients experience effects for up to 6 months. The masseter muscle tends to hold Botox longer than other facial muscles because it’s larger and stronger.
You’ll notice TMJ relief and reduced teeth grinding within a few days, while the facial slimming effects become visible around 2 weeks and reach their peak by 4 weeks. With consistent treatments every 4-6 months, many clients find they can eventually extend the time between sessions.
Regular maintenance treatments are key to sustained results. We’ll work with you to establish an optimal treatment schedule based on how your muscles respond and your aesthetic goals.
Yes, masseter Botox is highly effective for TMJ relief and reducing teeth grinding (bruxism). By relaxing the overactive jaw muscles, Botox addresses the root cause of these issues rather than just masking symptoms.
Most clients experience significant relief from jaw pain, morning headaches, and teeth grinding within a week of treatment. The muscle relaxation also prevents the unconscious clenching that often occurs during sleep or stressful situations.
While masseter Botox isn’t FDA-approved specifically for TMJ treatment, numerous studies show its effectiveness for muscle-related jaw disorders. Our approach combines this treatment with education about stress management and jaw-friendly lifestyle modifications for comprehensive relief.
There’s virtually no downtime with masseter Botox treatment. You can return to work immediately and resume all normal activities. Some clients experience minor bruising or swelling at injection sites, which typically resolves within 24-48 hours.
We recommend avoiding hard, chewy foods for the first few days to prevent muscle strain while the Botox takes effect. Gentle jaw massages and avoiding excessive gum chewing can help optimize your results.
You’ll have a follow-up appointment at two weeks to assess your results and make any necessary adjustments. Most clients are thrilled with their outcome by this point and only need minor touch-ups if any asymmetry is present.
Good candidates for masseter Botox typically have enlarged or overactive jaw muscles causing aesthetic concerns or functional problems like TMJ pain and teeth grinding. If you can feel prominent muscle bulges when clenching your teeth, you’re likely a good candidate.
The treatment works best for people whose square jawline is caused by muscle enlargement rather than bone structure. During your consultation, we’ll perform a simple assessment to determine if your concerns can be addressed with Botox or if other treatments might be more appropriate.
Pregnant or nursing women, people with certain neurological conditions, and those allergic to botulinum toxin should avoid this treatment. We’ll review your complete medical history during consultation to ensure masseter Botox is safe and appropriate for you.
