What is Masseter Botox?
Masseter botox is a non-invasive aesthetic and therapeutic treatment that involves injecting botulinum toxin into the jaw muscles (masseter muscle). This procedure slims a square, wide jawline, giving the face an oval, V-line shape. It is also highly effective in treating functional issues such as teeth grinding (bruxism) and jaw pain.
With over 30 years of experience, Dr. Hamza Gemici provides safe and effective masseter botox treatments at our clinic in Ataşehir, Istanbul, using FDA-approved botulinum toxin products (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin). The procedure takes approximately 15-20 minutes, and patients can return to daily activities immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does masseter botox last?
Masseter botox treatment takes approximately 15-20 minutes. The effect of botox lasts 4-6 months. With regular treatments, the masseter muscle gradually shrinks, allowing longer intervals between sessions and more lasting results.
Is masseter botox painful?
Masseter botox is a minimally painful procedure. Very fine needles are used, so most patients tolerate it comfortably without anesthesia. If desired, ice or topical anesthetic cream can be applied to the area before the procedure.
What are masseter botox prices in 2026?
Masseter botox prices vary depending on the product brand (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin) and the number of units injected. Since each patient's muscle structure is different, an examination is required for accurate pricing. Contact us via WhatsApp for a free consultation and current pricing.
What precautions should be taken after masseter botox?
Do not massage or touch the treated area for 24 hours after the procedure. Keep your head upright and do not lie down for the first 4 hours. Avoid heavy exercise, sauna, and steam rooms for 1 week. Avoid hard foods that are difficult to chew for the first few days.
