No more waking up with a sore jaw. No more catching yourself clenching during stressful Staten Island commutes or grinding through another restless night.
Your face looks naturally balanced. That square jawline softens into a more defined, V-shaped contour that photographs beautifully. Friends notice you look refreshed but can’t pinpoint exactly what changed.
The tension headaches disappear. Eating becomes effortless again. Your jaw finally feels light, relaxed, and free from the constant strain that’s been wearing you down for months or years.
We bring premier injectable expertise to Sunnyside, Staten Island residents who deserve better than generic treatments. Led by a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with licensed, certified injectors, we specialize in masseter muscle Botox with the precision that comes from understanding facial anatomy at the deepest level.
As a platinum-level Allergan partner, we rank in the top tier of practices nationwide. This isn’t just credentials—it’s proof we know the difference between heavy-handed injections and the nuanced technique that delivers natural results without compromising function.
Staten Island patients choose us for our personalized approach, minimal wait times, and commitment to education. Every treatment includes a complimentary consultation and two-week follow-up, ensuring your results meet your specific goals.
Your consultation focuses on your specific concerns—jaw pain, teeth grinding, or facial contouring goals. We map your masseter muscles, determining precise injection points and the exact units needed for your anatomy and desired outcome.
The actual masseter Botox treatment takes about 20 minutes in our comfortable, lounge-like environment. Using ultra-fine needles, small amounts of authentic Allergan Botox are strategically placed into your masseter muscles. Most patients describe minimal discomfort—like small pinpricks.
You walk out and resume normal activities immediately. Within 1-2 weeks, jaw tension starts melting away. Visible facial slimming develops over 4-6 weeks as the muscle gradually relaxes and reduces in size. Results last 4-6 months with proper maintenance.

You’ll feel less jaw tension within 1-2 weeks after your masseter Botox treatment at House of Ness. Visible jaw slimming becomes noticeable around 2-4 weeks, with full contouring results appearing by 6-8 weeks.
This gradual timeline happens because Botox needs time to fully relax the masseter muscle. Once relaxed, the muscle gradually reduces in size, creating that naturally slimmer jawline you’re seeking. The process is subtle and progressive—exactly what you want for facial aesthetics that look completely natural.
Staten Island patients often tell us they love how the results develop gradually, allowing them to get used to their new look without dramatic overnight changes.
Absolutely. Masseter Botox is highly effective for reducing teeth grinding (bruxism) and TMJ-related jaw pain. By relaxing overactive masseter muscles, Botox significantly reduces the intensity and frequency of grinding and clenching episodes.
Most patients notice substantial relief from jaw tension, morning headaches, and facial pain within 1-2 weeks. The treatment works by temporarily blocking nerve signals that cause muscle contractions, giving your chronically overworked jaw muscles a chance to rest and heal.
This makes masseter Botox particularly valuable for Staten Island residents dealing with stress-related jaw clenching—whether from work pressure, traffic, or daily life demands. It addresses both the physical symptoms and helps break the destructive cycle of muscle tension.
Masseter Botox typically requires 40-60 units total (20-30 units per side) for effective jaw slimming and tension relief. The exact investment depends on your specific needs, determined during your complimentary consultation with us.

No, masseter Botox won’t affect your ability to chew normally or change your smile when performed by experienced injectors. The treatment specifically targets the masseter muscles responsible for clenching and grinding, not the muscles used for normal chewing or facial expressions.
Some patients notice their bite feels slightly softer initially as the muscles relax, but this doesn’t interfere with eating. Your smile muscles remain completely unaffected because skilled injectors understand facial anatomy and know exactly where to place Botox to avoid unwanted effects.
At House of Ness, our Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and licensed injectors use precise mapping techniques developed through thousands of procedures. This expertise ensures your treatment enhances your appearance and comfort without compromising natural function.
Masseter Botox results typically last 4-6 months, so most patients schedule maintenance treatments 3-4 times per year. However, many find they need fewer units over time as the muscle becomes trained to stay more relaxed between treatments.
Frequency varies based on your metabolism, masseter muscle strength, and treatment goals. Patients focused on teeth grinding relief may extend time between appointments, while those maintaining facial slimming results prefer consistent scheduling.
During your follow-up visits, we assess how your muscles are responding and recommend optimal timing for your next treatment. This personalized approach ensures you maintain consistent results while minimizing unnecessary treatments.
Masseter Botox is extremely safe when performed by qualified medical professionals using authentic products. As a platinum-level Allergan partner, we use only FDA-approved Botox and maintain the highest safety standards.
Side effects are minimal and temporary—slight swelling, redness, or bruising at injection sites that resolve within days. Some patients experience brief chewing fatigue as muscles adapt, which improves quickly as your jaw adjusts to its more relaxed state.
Serious complications are exceptionally rare with proper technique and anatomical expertise. Our Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and licensed injectors have extensive experience with facial anatomy, ensuring your treatment is both safe and effective for long-term jaw health and aesthetic goals.
