You’ll notice your jawline becoming more defined and V-shaped within two weeks. The square, bulky appearance that’s been bothering you starts to soften as your masseter muscles relax and reduce in size.
Your face looks more balanced and contoured—exactly what you’ve been wanting without the downtime or risks of surgery. The tension you’ve been carrying in your jaw melts away, and you might even sleep better without the constant grinding.
This isn’t about changing who you are. It’s about revealing the refined facial structure that was always there, just hidden under overactive jaw muscles.

Your consultation starts with a thorough assessment of your jaw muscles and facial structure. We explain exactly where the botox will be placed and what you can expect—no surprises, no pressure.
The actual treatment takes about 15 minutes. Small amounts of botox are strategically injected into your masseter muscles on each side of your jaw. Most people describe it as a slight pinch, nothing more.
You can return to your day immediately—no downtime, no visible signs you’ve had anything done. Within a week or two, you’ll start noticing your jawline looking more refined and any jaw tension beginning to ease. Full results develop over the next month as your muscles gradually relax and reduce in size.

Your masseter botox treatment includes everything: the initial consultation, the procedure itself, and a two-week follow-up appointment. If you need any touch-ups during that follow-up, they’re included at no extra cost.
Upper Saddle River clients particularly appreciate our medical-grade approach. This isn’t a quick cosmetic fix—it’s a therapeutic treatment that addresses both the aesthetic and functional aspects of jaw muscle overactivity.

Results typically last 4-6 months, though some clients enjoy benefits for up to 6 months. The longevity depends on your metabolism, activity level, and how your muscles respond to treatment.
Many clients find that with regular treatments, they can extend the time between sessions. Your jaw muscles gradually “learn” to stay relaxed, often requiring fewer units to maintain results over time. During your follow-up appointments, we’ll help you determine the optimal treatment schedule for your goals and lifestyle.
Yes, masseter botox is highly effective for TMJ pain and bruxism (teeth grinding). By relaxing the overactive jaw muscles, it reduces the tension that causes jaw pain, headaches, and nighttime grinding.
Many clients notice relief from jaw pain within the first week, even before the cosmetic slimming effects become visible. The treatment doesn’t eliminate your ability to chew or speak normally—it simply reduces the excessive muscle activity that causes problems. If you wake up with a sore jaw or your dentist has mentioned tooth wear from grinding, masseter botox addresses the root cause.
When performed by experienced injectors, masseter botox creates subtle, natural-looking refinement. The goal isn’t dramatic change—it’s about revealing a more balanced, contoured jawline that looks like the best version of yourself.
We focus on conservative dosing and precise placement to ensure your results enhance your natural features. You’ll still look like you, just with a more refined jawline and less facial tension. Most clients report that people notice they look refreshed or rested, but can’t pinpoint exactly what’s different.
You’ll start noticing changes within 1-2 weeks, with full results visible by 4-6 weeks. The timeline varies slightly between individuals, but most clients see initial jaw slimming and tension relief within the first two weeks.
The muscle relaxation happens gradually, which is actually ideal—it means your results look natural as they develop. If you have TMJ pain or jaw tension, you might notice relief even sooner, sometimes within the first week. Your two-week follow-up appointment allows us to assess your progress and make any necessary adjustments.
Masseter botox has an excellent safety profile when administered by qualified medical professionals. It’s been used for both cosmetic and therapeutic purposes for decades, with extensive research supporting its safety and effectiveness.
The treatment only affects the targeted muscles—it doesn’t spread to other areas or cause systemic effects. Regular treatments don’t cause permanent damage; if you stop treatments, your muscles will gradually return to their original size and activity level. Our board-certified approach ensures you receive the highest standard of care with proper technique and dosing for optimal safety and results.
