Masseter Reduction also known as jawline slimming, is an effective and simple cosmetic procedure that targets and relaxes the masseter muscles resulting in a slimmer jawline. This is performed through injections of dysport into the masseter muscles, once injected the dysport works to inhibit nerve signals that contract the muscles and overtime you will experience a slimmer and softer jawline. Offered at Perfection Cosmetic Clinic in Toronto, Masseter Reduction is a fantastic treatment and alternative to surgical solutions to achieve a balanced, contoured, slimmer looking face.
The masseter muscle is a muscle that connects your cheeks to your lower jaw, a wider appearing jaw can be a result of multiple different conditions and in certain cases genetics. Some people naturally have a wider jaw, others have overactive masseter muscles resulting in muscle buildup. Masseter Reduction procedure can treat the root cause through freezing the active muscle, small doses of dysport are injected and spread out over multiple points within the muscles.
Properly administered dysport into your masseter muscle will not affect your smile. The muscles that support and allow you to smile are the Risorius and Zygomaticus, completely different muscles from the masseter. The most common concern regarding this is migration of the dysport to surrounding muscles, by going to a licensed, professional clinic and following recommended aftercare this will be avoided.
Being a minimally invasive procedure, there should not be much discomfort. We also use numbing cream before the initial injection which should aid in reducing any pain. At most you may feel a prick and possibly some pressure. However if you have a very low pain tolerance or sensitivity this should be considered in your decision to have a dysport treatment.
Yes, dysport can help with TMJ symptoms. One of the effects of TMJ is clenching of the jaw muscles, which can cause pain. Masseter dysport treatment efficiently works to freeze those tense muscles resulting in reduced pain and more relaxed jaw muscle.
Masseter Dysport has two main functions, one is to treat the jawline shape for cosmetic purposes. People with a wider jaw shape who wish to have a slimmer more “V” shape face but without surgery will often opt for masseter dysport as a solution. The second most common reason for masseter dysport is to help treat more medical conditions such as TMJ and Bruxism (Jaw Clenching) to reduce pain and tension.
