Bruxism & face slimming at The Medical Skin Clinic
Relieve the grind. Soften the jaw.
Masseter injections treat teeth grinding, jaw tension and headaches at their source — and as the overworked muscle relaxes, many patients also enjoy a naturally slimmer lower face.

What is Bruxism & face slimming?
One treatment, two benefits
Bruxism — habitual clenching and grinding — overworks the masseter muscles at the angle of the jaw. The result: worn teeth, tension headaches, jaw ache, and over time a squarer, heavier lower face.
Precisely placed muscle-relaxing injections calm the masseter without affecting chewing. Grinding eases within weeks, and as the muscle gently reduces in bulk the lower face often appears slimmer and softer. Custom nightguards are also available for combined protection.
- Relieves grinding, clenching and tension headaches
- Natural face-slimming effect over 4–8 weeks
- Custom-made nightguards available
- Performed by registered medical practitioners
The science
How masseter treatment works
Assess
Your practitioner examines your bite, muscle bulk and symptoms to confirm masseter overactivity is the cause.
Relax
Targeted injections reduce the muscle's clenching force while everyday chewing remains completely normal.
Rebalance
Grinding subsides within weeks; with continued treatment the muscle slims and the jawline softens naturally.
