Jaw Tension? Headaches? Teeth Grinding? This Might Be the Fix You’ve Been Looking For.

If you regularly wake up with a sore jaw, tension headaches, or feel like your face is holding stress - you’re not alone.

So many of my clients come to me after struggling for years with clenching or grinding (also known as bruxism) and they’re always surprised to hear that there’s actually a really effective (and subtle) solution.

Using wrinkle-relaxing injections in the masseter muscle (the strong muscle along the jawline) can ease tension, reduce pain, and even slim the face slightly - all in one treatment.

What Is Masseter (Jaw) Treatment?

The masseter is the big muscle we use for chewing. When it’s overworked (usually from clenching or grinding without even realising when stressed), it can lead to:

• Headaches

• Jaw pain or tightness

• Clicking or locking of the jaw

• Facial tension

• A wider, more square jawline over time

By relaxing this muscle with a few small injections, we can soften its activity just enough to relieve that pressure - without affecting how you chew or speak.

The Benefits Are Twofold: Health + Aesthetics

This treatment has become a favourite for people across my client base - Warrington and Cheshire dealing with TMJ symptoms (temporomandibular joint dysfunction) or bruxism. But it’s also popular for the aesthetic results - as a bulkier jaw can give a wider face shape, and this softens that into more of a natural contour.

Here’s what clients usually notice:

• Fewer headaches

• Less jaw tension or pain

• Better sleep

• A slimmer, more balanced face shape

A Subtle, Effective Solution - In Just 15 Minutes

The treatment itself is super quick, with no downtime. Results start to show within a couple of weeks and last several months.

It’s a game-changer if you’ve tried night guards, painkillers or physio with no real relief.

FAQs: Masseter Jaw Treatment

Will it change how I chew or speak?

Nope - the goal is to soften the overactivity of the masseter muscle, not freeze it. You’ll still be able to eat, talk, and move your jaw normally - just with a lot less tension.

Does it hurt?

It’s a few small injections and most clients describe it as totally manageable. The whole appointment takes about 15 minutes.

How long does it take to work?

You might start to feel some relief within a week, but full results typically show in 2–3 weeks.

How long does it last?

Results last around 3–6 months depending on your muscle strength and how your body metabolises the product.

Will it slim my face?

Yes - but subtly. As the muscle relaxes, it naturally reduces bulk over time, giving the face a more heart-shaped or V-line contour.

Is it just for people who grind their teeth?

No - it’s also a great option for anyone with a naturally strong jawline, facial tension, or even frequent migraines linked to TMJ issues.
