A well-defined jawline is a highly desirable trait, whether you’re yearning for a more chiseled, masculine look or a v-shaped, feminine jawline. If you’ve been wondering how to get a sharper jawline without surgery, you’re in luck. Discover how one of our most popular injectable treatments, face slimming with masseter Dysport®, helps you transform your jawline and boost your confidence.
Understanding Masseter Dysport Injections
Dysport, like its cousin BOTOX® Cosmetic, is a neuromodulator containing botulinum toxin that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles. When injected into the masseter muscles (the large chewing muscles at the angles of your jaw), it slims and contours the lower face, creating a leaner, more defined jawline.
The treatment works by:
- Temporarily reducing the size of overdeveloped masseter muscles
- Creating a slimmer, more V-shaped lower face
- Enhancing the natural contours of the jaw
How To Improve the Jawline: Male vs. Female Considerations
For both men and women wondering how to improve their jawline, masseter Dysport injections are a popular nonsurgical solution with transformative results.
Masseter Dysport helps men achieve a sharp, chiseled jawline by:
- Enhancing jawline definition
- Creating a more angular look
- Reducing fullness in the lower face for better proportions
For women, the goal is often a softer, more feminine jawline. We achieve this look using masseter Dysport by:
- Slimming a square or wide jaw
- Creating oval or heart-shaped facial contours
- Enhancing the definition of the jawline
During your personalized consultation, we’ll explore your concerns and aesthetic goals, and I’ll provide a clear overview of what to expect during and after treatment. I encourage you to ask any questions, and you’ll walk away with a treatment plan specifically tailored to your unique needs.
Dysport vs. BOTOX for Masseter
You may wonder about the difference between Dysport and BOTOX for masseter treatment. Both injectables work by relaxing the masseter muscle, but Dysport spreads more easily over larger areas, which is beneficial for jawline slimming. Another plus—many patients find that Dysport takes effect slightly faster than BOTOX.
Ultimately, many providers (and patients!) prefer Dysport for jawline slimming because it:
- Has a slightly faster onset (typically 2 to 3 days vs. 4 to 7 days for BOTOX)
- Has a wider spread, which can be beneficial for larger areas like the masseter
- Is usually more cost-effective, as fewer units may be needed
How Many Units of Dysport for Masseter?
The number of units required for masseter Dysport injections depends on the size of your masseter muscle and the degree of slimming or contouring you wish to achieve. I’ll assess your jawline and determine the correct dosage to meet your aesthetic goals. Rest assured that I leverage my extensive training and expertise when administering Dysport, fillers, and other injectables to ensure your results look balanced and natural.
