Slimming the Face with BOTOX and Dysport in San Francisco

[@checj7703]

But after a when these muscles eventually get atrophied? You have drooping in the bottom of the face. You may have another problem with Marionette lines? No?

[@doctorcherylc]

In young patients, not really an issue. However, generally for people above 50-60 years old it is possible to worsen jowling due to skin laxity. Masseter botox will reduce the volume in the face and if there isn't enough elasticity in the face skin, then there will be excess loose skin. An experienced injector will know who is a good candidate and who isn't.

Is this affect for the movement of lower jaw ( front and backward movements)???

[@lucydicosta3095]

Amazing work but I saw Dr Nina Bal doing it perfectly.. she is the best in this field

[@DavidMabrieMD]

Thanks for the recommendation Lucy. We'll check her out next time we are in London.

[@sejlaahmetbasic9260]

Hi Doctor, I’ve been looking into this masseter muscle botox for a while due to my clenching of the jaw all day every day. The dentist recommended a nightguard and I use it but it doesn’t help so much when I clench during the day as well, most likely from anxiety. When someone gets the botox and the muscle relaxes, will it permanently slim your face a little, as long as you don’t pick up on the habit of clenching again?

[@blackjackygirl]

I had the same question!

[@DavidMabrieMD]

Treating the masseters with neuromodulators has a dual effect (slimming and treating TMJ), but are not permanent. It is a temporary treatment that lasts about 3 to 4 months. We suggest touch-ups 2 to 3 times per year. Check out more info on our website: www.yourfaceinourhands.com/blog/facial-slimming-with-botox-cosmetic/

[@jutos222]

is there another way that last forever?

[@Hello61Jello]

Julia Cabalzar Tostes if you keep doing it it becomes permanent

[@DavidMabrieMD]

Hi Julia, Because Botox/Dysport paralyze facial muscles by blocking the nerves, there isn’t much that can be done to reverse the effect should you get over injected by an inexperienced injector. We believe getting touch-up treatments 1-2 times a year to maintain results is the safest option. Would you agree?

Do you have get temporalis muscle done along with masseter? Y is it dentist want to do both talkin 125units total. I Think too much

[@DavidMabrieMD]

No you do not have to treat the temporals muscle also. We typically use 30 units of Botox per side, or 90 units of Dysport per side.

Love the results 😍✨♡

[@DavidMabrieMD]

Thank you!

[@ezcanor8262]

Ima guy so I want to ask is this good for people who have unilateral Masseter hypotrophy? I have a square effect on my right side since I do clench my teeth and have had an old habit of biting my teeth and I feel like my case it’s very severe the way the muscle is very strong and it creates a noticeable asymmetry.

[@DavidMabrieMD]

Ezcanor, thank you for your question. Yes! Neuromodulator injections are a great treatment for anyone who suffers from masseter hypertrophy. If one muscle is overworked it can become noticeably larger in size and contribute to facial asymmetry, as you are describing. Botox or Dysport injections weaken the muscle and help it to decrease in size, correcting some of the asymmetry. It is important to see an experienced injector who can determine the appropriate number of units needed to match your specific goals.

[@lai238]

What is it called

[@DavidMabrieMD]

Lay Lay, this treatment is called Masseter Reduction. You can find more info here www.yourfaceinourhands.com/menu-of-services/treatment-packages/chin-jaw-neck/.

[@ashey181]

If multipul results are there can it then become permanent in the end?

[@DavidMabrieMD]

Ashey, Treating the masseters with neuromodulators are not permanent. It is a temporary treatment that lasts about 3 to 4 months. We suggest touch-ups 2 to 3 times per year. Check out more info on our website: www.yourfaceinourhands.com/blog/facial-slimming-with-botox-cosmetic/

[@huntingfashiondolls3307]

it only last 6 months?

[@DavidMabrieMD]

Hi hunting fashion dolls - Neuromodulators (like BOTOX and Dysport) for facial slimming typically last about 6 months. Overtime, as your masseter muscles reduce with consecutive treatment, your results could last longer. It may take 3 or more appointments, at 6-month intervals, before this occurs. You can find more info on facial slimming on our website: www.yourfaceinourhands.com/contour/face-slimming-masseter-botox/ We hope this helps. ~Mabrie Facial Institute

[@eslamsaeeed422]

How many times I need to get a v line for ever

[@DavidMabrieMD]

Eslam, masseter reduction with neuromodulators is a temporary treatment that lasts about 3 to 4 months. We suggest touch-ups 2 to 3 times per year. When combining both dermal fillers and neuromodulators together in one facial treatment, there is a good chance you will have even greater results. These complementary treatments can slim and shape the face and also enhance your features bringing out that inner ROCK STAR.

[@xzuajkgka3479]

why is the results not permanent? do people grow back the masseter muscles that had shrinken?

[@DavidMabrieMD]

Hi Xzuajk, To treat the masseter muscle we use Botox. It's a purified protein that, when injected into a targeted facial muscle, blocks the nerve impulses to that muscle. As a result, the muscle relaxes. It causes atrophy of the masseter muscle and reduction of the force of contraction. Once the Botox wears off the muscle contraction and size usually returns to normal. Results will last about 3-6 months. You can maintain and improve upon the longevity of your results with regularly scheduled maintenance treatments.

[@jackierishmawy6083]

I am terrified because 4 days ago with Dysport instead of Botox. Do you think the dysport is going to spread all over my face into smile muscles. I had dysport in glabellar lines do you think it can go inside my eyes. Is it permanent if something goes wrong with your smile? I am very scared.

Does this hurt? My pain tolerance is a joke :(

[@DavidMabrieMD]

Hello61Jello, It's natural to feel a little bit anxious. We will do everything we can so you feel comfortable and relaxed. The needles we use are extremely small. All you feel is the tiny pinch of the injection, which feels similar to a toothpick on the skin or like popping a pimple. If you have any questions about the process and what to expect, just give us a call and we'll walk you through it. www.yourfaceinourhands.com/resources/injectable-fillers-101/ ~Mabrie Facial Institute
