Relaxing the strong muscles at the sides of the jaw to soften a square or wider-looking lower face.
Masseter treatment works by relaxing the muscles at the sides of the jaw, helping to soften a square or wider-looking lower face and create a slimmer, more contoured jawline. The effect is gradual as the muscle reduces in bulk rather than immediate.
People book it for two quite different reasons: the shape of the lower face, and clenching or grinding. Both are worth mentioning at consultation, because it changes where and how much we treat. If you grind at night, tell us — it is common and it affects the plan.
A full consultation is required before treatment so our prescriber can review your medical forms. You must be 18 or over.
Welcoming clients from Lichfield, Sutton Coldfield, Four Oaks, Mere Green and Little Aston.

Not immediately. The change is gradual over the following weeks as the muscle reduces in bulk.
It is one of the two main reasons people book it. Tell us at consultation if you clench or grind, because it changes where and how much we treat.
That is something we assess at consultation. If we have concerns about your bite or jaw function we will say so before treating.
