OUR TREATMENTS
Masseter Slimming
Bruxism, also known as teeth grinding, can be a very uncomfortable problem to have. As well as grinding your teeth, if you have this concern, you may also hold a lot of tension in your jaw which can lead to headaches. The masseter muscle can be treated to help solve this problem.
In addition to this, the masseter muscle can also be responsible for making the face look wider. By injecting Botox into the masseter area we can slim down a wider face and reduce jaw tension and teeth grinding.
At Youtopia, we believe that facial harmony is the key to achieving a youthful and attractive appearance. Our Masseter Slimming and Teeth Grinding treatment is just one of the many ways we help our clients achieve their aesthetic goals while also improving their overall wellbeing.

NATURAL RESULTS
The Treatment
A wide jaw is often the result of an overactive masseter muscle which is located on each side of the jaw and is associated with chewing and teeth grinding – also known as bruxism. When a person chews or grinds their teeth too often, the masseter muscle can often grow in size, causing a wide or square appearance of the jaw. In some instances, a square jaw can be a genetic trait.
Here at Youtopia we offer an anti-wrinkle injection that is administered into the masseter muscle which can cause it to relax and shrink, therefore changing the physical mass of the muscle. This can significantly reduce the squareness of the jaw, creating a softer, slimmer facial appearance for a more feminine appearance.
Patients may also seek masseter treatment to reduce tension headaches and teeth grinding. The procedure takes around 10 minutes, and the effects typically last for 3-6 months. Patients will notice a slimmer jawline and a reduction in teeth grinding, leading to improved facial symmetry and a more youthful appearance.
As experts in the field, we take a personalised approach to each patient’s treatment plan. Our experienced practitioners will conduct a thorough consultation to ensure that our Masseter Slimming treatment is the right fit for your needs. We use only the highest quality products and techniques to ensure optimal results and minimal downtime.
