Jawline Slimming
The Key to a Softer, More Balanced Face
If your lower face feels wide, boxy, or heavy — even when the rest of your features feel in balance — you may be dealing with an overdeveloped masseter muscle.
This is one of the most commonly missed root causes of facial imbalance. And at POUTx, we don’t guess. We assess, map, and treat strategically — because when it comes to jawline slimming, less isn’t always more… and one session isn’t enough.
Why Your Jawline Looks Wide
The masseter is one of the strongest muscles in the body — and it works hard. If you grind your teeth, clench your jaw, chew gum frequently, or hold stress in your face, you’re unintentionally giving your masseters a daily workout.
And just like any other muscle in the body — if you overuse it, it bulks up.
That bulk creates:
A wider, more square lower face
Imbalance between your cheeks and jawline
A more masculine or heavy appearance — especially in women who want soft curves
The Truth About Masseter Reduction: It’s a Process
Because the masseter muscle is large and powerful, it takes time and consistency to slim it safely and effectively.
We often recommend:
A series of treatments spaced 3 months apart
Ongoing evaluation of clenching and compensation patterns
Strategic layering of other treatments (like midface support) to create balance
One session will start the softening — but it takes multiple treatments to truly shrink the muscle bulk and soften the jawline.
Why Slimming the Masseters Improves Your Whole Face
When the lower face is bulky or dominant, it throws off your proportions.
We often see clients who:
Want cheek or under-eye filler that still doesn’t “work”
Feel like their face looks tired, saggy, or pulled down
Have tried everything but still feel off
That’s because lower-face heaviness overpowers everything above it.
By reducing the jaw width and relaxing the masseters, your face instantly looks:
More feminine
More slim
More balanced
Our Approach: MasseterMINIMIZATION™
At POUTx, we don’t “just inject Botox into the jaw.”
We use our signature MasseterMINIMIZATION™ method to assess:
Your muscle dominance
Your bite pattern, tension, and asymmetry
How your masseter bulk is affecting facial harmony overall
We then apply neuromodulators (Botox or Dysport) at customized doses, spaced out over a strategic timeline — because shrinking a powerful muscle requires more than a one-and-done approach.
Treatment Plan for Jaw Slimming May Include:
3–4 rounds of masseter injections spaced 12 weeks apart
ARCHITOX™ to regulate upper-face muscle movement for overall harmony
Midface volume support to balance top and bottom facial proportions
This is not just about shrinking a muscle. It’s about balancing the face — strategically.
Real Client Wins
"I always felt like my jawline didn’t match the rest of my face. POUTx explained that my masseters were dominating my lower face. After a few rounds of treatment, everything changed — my face is softer, more oval, and my cheek filler finally looks amazing."
