While Los Angeles often dominates the Californian aesthetic scene, Bakersfield isn’t far behind when it comes to cutting-edge cosmetic treatments. Dr. Farzin Kerendian extends his expertise to Bakersfield, offering the same level of dedication and precision in treatments, including masseter reduction for a refined jawline.

Understanding Masseter Reduction

Positioned on both sides of our faces, the masseter muscles play a vital role in mastication and jaw movement. These muscles can become more pronounced in some individuals, leading to a square or broader facial profile. Masseter reduction is designed to lessen the prominence of this muscle, allowing for a more slender and defined jaw appearance.

Root Causes of a Square or Broadened Jaw:

Enlarged masseter muscles can emerge due to several reasons:

  • Genetic Factors: A square jaw can be a hereditary trait passed down through generations.
  • Bruxism: Regular and unconscious grinding or clenching of teeth, especially during sleep, can enlarge the masseter muscles.
  • Chronic Gum Chewing: Consistent gum chewing can inadvertently increase the size of these muscles.
  • TMJ Disorders: Conditions affecting the temporomandibular joint can sometimes contribute to the enlargement of masseter muscles.

Are You the Right Fit for Masseter Reduction?

If you’re contemplating masseter reduction, it’s pivotal to ascertain if you’re a suitable candidate. This procedure can benefit:

  • Those who have a naturally square jaw due to pronounced masseter muscles.
  • Individuals who face discomfort due to the bulkiness of their masseter muscles.
  • Those yearning for a more oval or heart-shaped facial silhouette.

Botox for Jaw Slimming in Bakersfield

Dr. Farzin Kerendian brings the highly sought-after Botox treatment for jaw slimming to Bakersfield. Administered in a comfortable in-office setting and under local anesthesia, Botox injections are skillfully given to the masseter muscles. These injections promote muscle relaxation, leading to their gradual reduction in size over time, and resulting in a gracefully slimmed jawline.

Post-Treatment Expectations:

  • Initial Recovery: Post-procedure, you might observe minor swelling or redness around the injection areas. These typically recede within a few hours.
  • Results: The initial slimming effect is visible within a week and becomes progressively pronounced in the subsequent weeks.
  • Longevity of Results: Depending on individual response, some might experience lasting results after a series of sessions, while others could require periodic maintenance.
