Masseter reduction is a procedure aimed to reduce the size of the masseter muscle to create a narrower jaw. This procedure involves the use of neurotoxin, which is injected into the masseters. Dr. Linkov has successfully performed numerous muscle reduction procedures on patients not only from around New York City but from all over the United States and the world.
What Is Masseter Reduction?
Masseter reduction is a non-surgical procedure in which neurotoxin is injected into the masseters. The masseters are a set of muscles that span the mid to lower face and are responsible for chewing. Injection of neurotoxin like Botox or Jeuveau into these muscles helps to reduce their activity, and this reduction in activity can have both cosmetic and functional benefits.
