Masseter Botox is typically done with a cooling spray for localized numbing, but the type of anesthesia may vary depending on the situation.
The pain? Just a quick pinch as the needle enters the skin! Since the injection goes directly into the jaw muscles, you might feel slight discomfort, but it's totally manageable.

"Here’s all you need to know
Is Masseter Botox Right for You?
Since Botox works on muscles, Masseter Botox is best for people with strong, well-developed jaw muscles (a.k.a. masseter muscles).
Not sure if you have them?Try this: Clench your teeth and feel your jawline.
•
If you can clearly feel or see the muscle pop out, you’re a great candidate!
•
If nothing really moves, your square jaw might be due to bone structure rather than muscle. In that case, Botox may not be as effective, so it’s best to consult a doctor for other options!
What You Need to Know Before Getting Masseter Botox!
Plan ahead—get it at least a month before a big event!Got a wedding, job interview, or special occasion coming up? Get Botox at least 4 weeks in advance for the best results!
Botox gradually relaxes the jaw muscles, so the slimming effect kicks in after about a month. Consistency is key!Masseter Botox isn’t permanent—it wears off as your muscles regain movement.
To maintain a slimmer jawline, here’s the ideal treatment schedule:
•
First 3 sessions: every 3–4 months
•
After that: every 5–6 months for maintenance
Pro Tip: Everyone’s body reacts differently, so talk to your doctor about the best timing for you! Possible Side Effects—What to Watch For!
Can you develop Botox resistance?Yes, but only if the Botox contains complex proteins.
Some Botox brands include extra proteins, which can cause your body to build antibodies—making the treatment less effective over time
Want to lower the risk?
Ask for a "pure toxin" Botox formula (one without unnecessary proteins) to reduce the chances of resistance!
Will it make my cheeks look hollow?Maybe—but only if too much muscle volume is lost.
For some people, shrinking the masseter muscles too much can make their cheeks look slightly sunken.
If you already have high cheekbones or slight hollowness, mention it to your doctor so they can adjust the dosage for a more balanced look! Can it mess up my smile?If Botox is injected unevenly or too much is used on one side, it can cause temporary smile asymmetry—meaning one side of your mouth may lift higher than the other.
What to do?No worries! If this happens, it’s temporary and fades as the Botox wears off. But if something doesn’t feel right, visit your clinic for a quick check-up.
Have you made up your mind?
