Masseter TMJ & Face Slimming Newtox in Buffalo
A Slimmer-Looking Face Starts With Your Jaw Muscles. Prominent or overactive masseter muscles can contribute to a wider, more square-looking lower face. They may also be associated with jaw tension, clenching, or teeth grinding.
Masseter Newtox is a targeted treatment that temporarily reduces muscle activity in the masseter area, helping create a softer, slimmer-looking facial contour for suitable patients.
What Is Masseter Newtox?
Masseter Newtox involves targeted injections of a botulinum toxin product into selected areas of the masseter muscles.
By temporarily reducing muscle activity, treatment may help:
- Create a slimmer-looking lower face
- Soften prominent masseter muscles
- Enhance facial contour
- Reduce the appearance of a broad or square jaw caused by muscle prominence
- Address certain jaw-muscle-related concerns when clinically appropriate
Your practitioner will assess your facial anatomy, muscle activity, medical history, and goals before recommending treatment.
When these muscles are particularly prominent, they can make the lower face appear wider. Targeted Newtox treatment may gradually reduce masseter muscle activity, helping create a more tapered-looking facial appearance.
For patients experiencing jaw-muscle-related concerns, treatment may also be considered following an appropriate professional assessment.
