Masseter Botox: Jaw Slimming Miracle or Hidden Cause of Jowls?
Masseter Botox in Manchester | Slim Jaw Without Sagging
Discover the pros and cons of masseter Botox at Cave Aesthetics in Worsley. Learn how to slim the jawline without risking jowls or sagging skin.
Masseter Botox is a popular treatment for facial slimming, teeth grinding (bruxism), and jaw tension — but did you know that if done incorrectly, it can actually contribute to sagging or jowls?
At Cave Aesthetics in Worsley, we specialise in advanced masseter Botox treatments that deliver results withoutcompromising your facial structure.
What Is Masseter Botox?
Masseter Botox involves injecting small amounts of Botox into the masseter muscles (the big chewing muscles at the sides of your jaw) to slim a bulky lower face, relieve jaw clenching, or soften a square-shaped jawline.
Why Masseter Botox Can Cause Jowls (If You’re Not Careful)
While it’s fantastic for slimming, over-treatment or poor placement can lead to volume loss or laxity in the lower face, causing or exaggerating jowls.
This happens because:
The masseter muscle supports the skin over your jawline.
Weakening the muscle too much can lead to skin sagging.
If your skin has low elasticity or you’ve already lost some volume, the effects can be more noticeable.
How to Avoid Jowls with Masseter Botox
✅ Go to an experienced injector – Like Paris at Cave Aesthetics, who understands both anatomy and facial aesthetics.
✅ Use the right dose – We customise your treatment to keep the muscle relaxed but not over-atrophied.
✅ Support with other treatments – Combine with skin boosters, microneedling, or even jawline filler to keep the skin firm and lifted.
✅ Follow a long-term plan – We review your facial balance regularly to tweak treatments as your face changes.
