Little to no downtime
What to Expect
During Treatment
A trained professional will administer a series of small Botox injections directly into the masseter muscles on both sides of the jaw. The treatment typically takes 10-15 minutes with minimal discomfort & no anesthesia is required. Some guests may feel a slight pinch, but the treatment is well tolerated.
Recovery Phase
Most guests can resume normal activities immediately after the treatment. Mild swelling or tenderness at the injection site may occur but subsides within a few hours to a day. It is recommended to avoid massaging the treated area & refrain from strenuous exercise for 24 hours to ensure optimal results.
For Optimal Results
Results begin to appear within 2 to 4 weeks, as the masseter muscles gradually relax & reduce in size. Full results are typically visible by 6 weeks & the effects last 3 to 6 months. For long-term facial slimming, regular maintenance treatments are recommended every 4-6 months.

What is Masseter Botox & How Does It Work?
Botox, Dysport & Nuceiva are powerful neuromodulators that effectively slim the jawline, reduce facial width & relieve jaw tension. But they’re not magic. There’s real science behind their success!
Where Does Botox Come From? Botox is derived from a purified neurotoxin produced by Clostridium botulinum. While this may sound intimidating, Botox is Health Canada-approved, safe & highly effective when used in small, controlled doses by a trained professional.
By temporarily blocking nerve signals to the masseter muscles, Botox reduces excessive muscle contractions, leading to gradual muscle relaxation & shrinkage. This process slims the lower face, contours the jawline & alleviates TMJ symptoms. We can help you create a softer, more balanced facial appearance.
Botox is more than just a cosmetic wrinkle treatment. It has several medical applications, including:
- Migraine & Headache Relief: Botox can help reduce the frequency & severity of chronic migraines
- Excessive Sweating (Hyperhidrosis) Treatment: Botox effectively blocks overactive sweat glands to control underarm, hand, & foot sweating
- Jaw Tension & TMJ Pain Reduction – Botox relaxes the jaw muscles, reducing clenching, teeth grinding (bruxism), & TMJ-related discomfort
When administered by expert injectors, Botox is a safe, minimally invasive, & highly effective solution for both cosmetic enhancements & medical conditions.
Will Botox for Marionette Lines Make My Face Look Frozen?
A common Botox myth is that it will leave your face looking stiff or frozen, but when administered by an experienced injector, this is not the case.
At Lucere Dermatology & Laser Clinic, our expert cosmetic injectors & board-certified dermatologist specialize in delivering natural-looking Botox results that relax fine lines & wrinkles while preserving natural facial expressions. Too much Botox can lead to an unnatural, overdone look, which is why precision & expertise are essential.
Our approach ensures that you can still make facial expressions while enjoying a smoother, more youthful, & well-rested appearance. Our philosophy at Lucere is “Look Good, Not Done”. That means every treatment is carefully customized to enhance your natural beauty without looking over-treated. With the right technique, Botox subtly rejuvenates your features, leaving you refreshed & confident rather than frozen or expressionless.

Can I Get Botox While Pregnant?
No, Botox is not recommended during pregnancy as there are no well-controlled studies proving its safety for pregnant women.
At Lucere Dermatology & Laser Clinic, we prioritize patient safety & the highest standards of care, which is why we do not offer Botox, Dysport, or other neuromodulators to expectant mothers.
However, we believe in providing the best skin treatments in Edmonton for everyone, including safe & effective pregnancy-safe facials, light chemical peels, & medical-grade skincare to help maintain a radiant, healthy glow during pregnancy. If you are looking for pregnancy-safe skin treatments, our expert team can recommend gentle, nourishing options to keep your skin looking its best.
Is Masseter Botox & Facial Slimming Only for Women?
Absolutely not! Masseter Botox & facial slimming treatments are just as effective for men as they are for women. At Lucere Dermatology & Laser Clinic, we have a large number of male clients who trust us as the best clinic for jawline contouring, facial slimming & Botox for men in Edmonton. Many men seek Masseter Botox to achieve a more defined jawline, reduce facial width & alleviate TMJ pain. These treatments help them maintain a strong, sculpted & youthful look.
Since men’s masseter muscles tend to be larger & stronger, they often require more Botox units than women & may initially need more frequent treatments. However, with continued Botox sessions, most patients will gradually require fewer treatments over time to maintain their slimmer, contoured jawline.
How Many Units of Botox Do I Need?
The number of Botox units required varies for each individual & depends on several factors, including the treatment area, muscle strength, age, & previous Botox history.
Men often require more Botox units than women due to stronger facial muscles, & those new to Botox may need higher initial doses compared to guests who have had consistent treatments over time. At Lucere Dermatology & Laser Clinic, our expert cosmetic injectors personalize each Botox treatment to achieve natural-looking, long-lasting results while ensuring optimal wrinkle reduction & facial harmony.

How Long Does Masseter Botox Take to Work?
Masseter Botox for facial slimming starts working 24 to 48 hours after injection, but full results take up to 14 days to develop. As the Botox begins to take effect, the masseter muscles gradually relax. It leads to a slimmer, more contoured jawline & reduced jaw tension. For those using Masseter Botox for TMJ pain relief or teeth grinding, noticeable improvement in discomfort may be felt within the first few days.
The final slimming effect is typically visible at the six-week mark, when the jawline appears noticeably more sculpted & refined. With continued treatments, the masseter muscles shrink over time, enhancing the V-shaped face appearance.
At Lucere Dermatology & Laser Clinic, our expert injectors use precise & advanced Botox techniques to ensure natural-looking, long-lasting results. Book a consultation today for the best Masseter Botox in Edmonton & achieve a sleek, contoured jawline with expert care!
How Long Do Botox Results Last?
The duration of Botox results varies based on individual metabolism, muscle strength, & treatment history. For those new to Botox, treatments may wear off slightly faster as the muscles adjust, requiring more frequent sessions in the beginning. However, with consistent & optimal Botox treatments, most guests only need 2 to 3 sessions per year to maintain smooth, wrinkle-free skin.
At Lucere Dermatology & Laser Clinic, we use a customized approach, ensuring you receive only the precise number of Botox units needed for natural-looking, long-lasting results. Book a consultation today & experience the best Botox treatments in Edmonton for facial slimming!
Do Anti-wrinkle Treatments hurt?
Anti-wrinkle treatments are a quick & virtually painless treatment when performed by a skilled, experienced injector. Most guests describe the sensation as a tiny prick or mild pinch that lasts only a few seconds. Since Botox injections use an ultra-fine needle, discomfort is minimal, & no anesthesia is required. For those with sensitive skin or low pain tolerance, a topical numbing agent can be applied to enhance comfort.
At Lucere Dermatology & Laser Clinic, our expert cosmetic injectors specialize in gentle, precise Botox treatments to ensure a comfortable experience & natural-looking results.
Are There Any Side Effects of Botox?
Botox is a safe, Health Canada-approved treatment with minimal side effects when administered by a highly trained professional. Most guests experience little to no downtime, making it a convenient “lunchtime treatment”: You can get Botox & return to work immediately.
The most common temporary side effects include:
- Mild redness or swelling at the injection site, which typically fades within a few hours
- Slight bruising in rare cases, which can be minimized by avoiding alcohol & blood thinners before treatment
- Minor tenderness or a mild headache, which usually resolves within a day.
Serious side effects are extremely rare when Botox is performed by expert injectors. At Lucere Dermatology & Laser Clinic, we use advanced Botox techniques to ensure safe, natural-looking, & long-lasting results.
