Masseter Jaw Slimming in Malaysia
Refine Your Face Shape Without Surgery
A wide or square jaw can make the face appear heavier, more masculine, or older than it truly is. For many people, this is not caused by bone, but by overdeveloped jaw muscles from years of clenching, grinding, or constant tension. According to PubMed, repetitive overuse and parafunctional habits can contribute to masseter enlargement.
Masseter jaw slimming offers a non-surgical way to soften the lower face, restore balance, and reveal a naturally slimmer facial contour without changing who you are. As outlined by the Cleveland Clinic, botulinum toxin injections can reduce jaw muscle activity and bulk over time while preserving normal function.
Understanding Masseter Muscle Enlargement
The masseter muscles are powerful chewing muscles located at the sides of the jaw.
Common Causes
- Frequent teeth clenching or grinding
- Stress related jaw tension
