In facial aesthetics, the lower jawline is one of the most important areas that determine the overall expression and proportions of the face. In some people, the chewing muscle called the masseter may be overdeveloped. This situation can cause the face to look square and have a harsher expression aesthetically. Additionally, in people who suffer from teeth grinding (bruxism), the jaw muscles become more prominent, and the quality of life is negatively affected.
Masseter Botox, one of the modern aesthetic applications, is an effective method that slims the facial contours by reducing the size of the jaw muscles, providing a more oval and aesthetic appearance.
As “Gül Aydın Beauty,” we reshape our clients’ facial features by offering natural and reliable results in masseter botox.
What is Masseter Botox?
Masseter Botox is the procedure of relaxing and reducing the volume of the masseter muscle, which is the chewing muscle, through botulinum toxin injection.
- It slims the facial contours and provides a more oval appearance.
- It reduces the problem of bruxism (teeth grinding).
- It can balance asymmetries in the jawline.
This method, which stands out with its aesthetic and functional benefits, is one of the most preferred applications among non-surgical facial contouring techniques.
