At present, the main methods to solve the problem of masseter hypertrophy are injection of face-lifting needle and excision.

Injection of face-lifting needle is the treatment of masseter hypertrophy by injection of botulinum toxin. The professional name of face-lifting needle is botulinum toxin, which is a biological product and can be produced on a large scale by genetic engineering. Because of its nerve blocking effect, it has been used in many operations. By injecting it into the masseter muscle, the nerve conduction of the masseter muscle is blocked, so that the masseter muscle atrophy is reduced and the face-lifting effect is achieved.

excision is to remove part of the hypertrophic masseter muscle through an internal oral incision. However, this method is too harmful to muscle tissue and will cause pain to beauty lovers, which has been gradually banned by face-lifting needles.

The effect of face-lifting needle is not permanent. After several injections, a few people will have antibodies against botulinum toxin, which will make future injections ineffective. Because of chewing habits, there will still be slight asymmetry on both sides after injection. A few people may not be sensitive to drugs, so the effect is not obvious, so they should return to the clinic after 2 weeks. It is recoverable after injecting botulinum toxin, that is to say, after 3 ~ 6 months, it needs to be injected again to maintain the effect.

You can rest assured that there will be no side effects when you inject the face-lifting needle. But remind you that you must go to a regular specialized plastic surgery hospital to inject a face-lifting needle, and an experienced doctor can control the injection dose and injection point to ensure the effect of the operation.

I hope I can help you.
