You’ll notice the difference within two weeks. Your square jawline softens into a more contoured, feminine shape. The constant jaw tension melts away. You wake up without that familiar ache from grinding your teeth all night.
Most patients see their most dramatic slimming results around 8-12 weeks. Your face looks balanced, refined, and naturally proportioned. The bulky masseter muscles that made your lower face appear wide have relaxed and reduced in size.
Results last 4-6 months, giving you months of confidence with a jawline that photographs beautifully and feels comfortable every single day.
House of Ness has been transforming faces across Staten Island with precision and artistry. Led by a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and staffed by certified, licensed injectors, we bring medical expertise to every treatment.
As a platinum-level Allergan partner, House of Ness meets the highest standards for Botox administration. Our Meiers Corners-area patients appreciate the personalized approach – every client receives a complimentary consultation and two-week follow-up with touch-up if needed.
We understand Staten Island residents’ busy lifestyles. That’s why we’ve created a lounge-like environment with minimal wait times, allowing you to fit your jaw transformation into your schedule seamlessly.
Your journey starts with a complimentary consultation where your injector examines your jaw structure and discusses your goals. We’ll map the precise injection points on your masseter muscles to ensure optimal results while protecting nearby facial muscles.
The treatment itself takes under 30 minutes. Your injector cleanses the area and uses ultra-fine needles to deliver small amounts of Botox into 3-4 strategic points on each side of your jaw. Most patients describe the sensation as a quick pinch – nothing more.
You can return to your normal activities immediately. Within 1-2 weeks, you’ll start noticing your jaw muscles relaxing. The grinding stops, the tension fades, and your jawline begins its transformation. Peak slimming results appear around 8-12 weeks, creating the refined, V-shaped jawline you’ve been wanting.

Masseter Botox typically requires 20-40 units per side, with costs varying based on your specific needs and muscle size. At House of Ness, transparent pricing is provided during your complimentary consultation.
Staten Island pricing generally ranges from $400-$1,500 depending on the amount of Botox needed and the provider’s expertise. As a platinum-level Allergan partner, House of Ness offers competitive pricing with the added value of expert administration and comprehensive follow-up care.
The investment covers not just the treatment, but the consultation, precise injection technique, and two-week follow-up with touch-up if needed. Many patients find the long-lasting results (4-6 months) make it a cost-effective solution for both cosmetic enhancement and TMJ relief.
Yes, masseter Botox effectively slims the jawline by reducing the size of enlarged masseter muscles. These muscles can become bulky from teeth grinding, jaw clenching, or genetics, creating a square or wide lower face appearance.
When Botox is injected into these muscles, it temporarily relaxes them, preventing the constant clenching that builds muscle mass. Over 8-12 weeks, the muscles gradually reduce in size because they’re not working as hard, creating a more V-shaped, contoured jawline.
Clinical studies using ultrasound and photography confirm that Botox reduces masseter muscle thickness and visible jaw width. The slimming effect is most noticeable around 2-3 months and can last 4-6 months before gradually returning as the muscle recovers.
Absolutely. Masseter Botox is highly effective for treating TMJ disorders and bruxism (teeth grinding). By relaxing the masseter muscles, it reduces the intensity of jaw clenching and grinding that often occurs during sleep.
Many Staten Island patients experience significant relief from TMJ-related symptoms including jaw pain, headaches, earaches, and facial tension. The treatment breaks the cycle of muscle overactivity that contributes to joint inflammation and discomfort.
For teeth grinding, masseter Botox reduces the force of clenching, protecting your teeth from wear and damage. Most patients notice decreased grinding within 1-2 weeks of treatment. While some may still benefit from a night guard, the Botox significantly reduces the muscle tension that drives the grinding behavior.
Masseter Botox results typically last 4-6 months, though some patients see benefits extending up to 8 months with regular treatments. The longevity depends on your muscle size, metabolism, and how much Botox was used.
For jaw slimming, you’ll see initial softening within 1-2 weeks, with peak slimming results around 8-12 weeks. The cosmetic benefits gradually fade as the muscle slowly regains strength over 4-6 months.
TMJ and teeth grinding relief often lasts the full duration of the treatment. Many patients schedule maintenance appointments every 3-6 months to sustain their results. With consistent treatments, some patients report that their muscles seem to “learn” the relaxed state, potentially extending the time between sessions.
Masseter Botox is generally very safe when performed by qualified, certified injectors like those at House of Ness. As a platinum-level Allergan partner, we follow strict safety protocols and use only FDA-approved Botox.
Common side effects are minimal and temporary, including slight swelling or tenderness at injection sites. Some patients experience temporary chewing fatigue as the muscles adapt, but this typically resolves within a few days to a week.
Serious complications are rare when the treatment is performed correctly. The key is choosing an experienced provider who understands facial anatomy and proper injection techniques. House of Ness’s Board Certified Plastic Surgeon oversight and certified injector team ensure the highest safety standards for every patient.
You’ll start noticing changes within 1-2 weeks as the Botox begins relaxing your masseter muscles. Initial effects include reduced jaw tension and less teeth grinding, especially at night.
For jaw slimming, visible changes become apparent around 2-4 weeks, with the most dramatic slimming occurring between 8-12 weeks. This timeline allows the relaxed muscles to gradually reduce in size, creating the refined jawline contour.
TMJ and pain relief often occur more quickly, with many patients reporting decreased jaw discomfort within the first week. The full therapeutic benefits for grinding and clenching typically develop over 2-3 weeks as the muscles fully respond to the treatment.
