What to Expect after Anti Wrinkle Injections: Masseter & Jawline
Understanding the process
Navigating the Journey with Anti-Wrinkle Injections: Masster & Jawline
At Aesthetics at 51, I am dedicated to providing treatments that not only deliver beautiful, harmonious results but also ensure your utmost comfort and safety. Understanding what to expect after your masseter treatment is an essential part of this journey.
Typical Side Effects:
Redness and Swelling: It is normal to have slight redness or swelling at the injection sites immediately after the treatment.
Bruising: Occasionally, clients might notice minor bruising, which can vary depending on individual skin sensitivity.
Temporary Chewing Sensation: You may notice a mild, temporary feeling of weakness or "tiredness" in the jaw when chewing tough foods. This is a normal sign that the muscle is beginning to relax and will resolve quickly
Duration of Side Effects:
These side effects are generally short-lived, often resolving within a few hours to a few days. Bruising, if it occurs, may take a little longer to fade. The muscle-relaxing effect itself will take place gradually over the first two weeks.
Aftercare Tips:
Avoid touching or applying pressure to the treated areas for a few hours post-treatment.
Stay upright and refrain from strenuous exercise for 24 hours to allow the treatment to settle in.
Avoid strenuous chewing (like tough steak, hard sweets, or chewing gum) for the first 24-48 hours.
When to Seek Advice:
If you have any concerns or experience any unusual side effects following the treatment, please do not hesitate to contact me. Your well-being is my priority, and I am here to ensure your treatment experience is as smooth and comfortable as possible.
Positive Results:
The masseter treatment is a fantastic way to find relief from jaw tension, headaches, and the effects of teeth grinding (bruxism). As the muscle relaxes, you will notice a gradual softening of the jawline, resulting in a more balanced, harmonious, and serene appearance. Remember, these minor side effects are temporary steps toward achieving your goals.
