What Is Jaw Reduction / TMJ With Botox?
Jaw reduction using Botox targets the masseter muscles located at the sides of the jaw. When these muscles are enlarged due to grinding, clenching, or genetic factors, they can make the jawline appear wide or angular. Botox softens the muscle’s activity over time, reducing bulk and providing both symptom relief and gentle facial slimming.
Botox gently relaxes the masseter muscles, which are responsible for chewing and clenching. Over several weeks, the muscle becomes less bulky, creating a slimmer, softer jawline. This technique maintains natural movement while reducing square or widened facial angles.
Benefits of Jaw Reduction Botox
Jaw reduction with Botox offers both cosmetic and therapeutic benefits: a slimmed jawline, softened facial angles, reduced TMJ symptoms, fewer headaches, minimized nighttime grinding, and a more proportionate lower face, all without downtime or surgery.
Who Is a Candidate?
Ideal candidates include individuals who clench or grind their teeth, experience TMJ discomfort, suffer from jaw tension or migraines, or wish to soften a wide or square jawline. It’s suitable for men and women seeking a subtle, natural refinement that doesn't alter their essential facial structure.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your provider identifies the most active points of the masseter muscles before administering a series of precise Botox injections. The treatment takes about 10–15 minutes, involves minimal discomfort, and requires no anesthesia. Most patients return to daily activities immediately.

I had a few procedures done at StudioMD. I was very satisfied with the service Dr. Sadaf Qazi and her team provided. They kept me informed throughout the process. The doctor and her team was easy to reach after my surgery. I would highly recommend StudioMD.
“This place is the best! I love all the workers (especially Sophie) and felt like I was being cared for the entire time through out my journey!”
“I had under-eye filler done and my whole eye area looks refreshed. The tired look is gone--now I have a bright and lively expression. Thank you for the amazing work!”

Dr. Qazi and her entire staff have warm and welcoming demeanors, a high degree of hospitality, positive attitudes, always smiling and acting with the utmost level of respect, patient care, and making each patient feel special. They focus on client comfort and take their time with each person answering any and all questions. Dr. Qazi never rushes her appointments. She takes the time to listen to every concern and is thorough in each interaction I've had with her. She gave me her personal cell number so even during nights and weekends if a concern or question arises I am able to contact her for a mini evaluation of my issue or answering of my questions. The care I've received has continued long after the procedure was completed and I am so glad that I chose her to do my tummy tuck and liposuction. The results are outstanding and she is the only one I would trust to do any cosmetic procedures going forward.

I went to StudioMD's midtown location for laser tattoo removal. Jennifer is extremely personable, she ensured expectations for the amount of sessions needed for removal as well as ensured my comfort during the treatment. I chose to purchase a package for 6-sessions, and would consider seeking other treatments from StudioMD in the future. Would definitely recommend them to others, and in particular recommend working with Jennifer.
“Sofia is the best she’s been doing my tattoo removal for a while now makes me feel welcome comfortable and good during the whole procedure. 10/10 recommend love her!!”

Jennifer is so kind and professional at every appointment. She analyzes what needs to be done and makes me feel at ease. I highly recommend her for any service provided. I personally got a laser tattoo removal and she did a stellar service. The front desk staff is very nice and helpful ensuring all paperwork is up to date and reminders of appointments.

I recently had a SmartLipo procedure with Dr. Khan at Studio MD, and I could not be happier with the entire experience. From my very first consultation to the post-op follow-ups, Dr. Khan demonstrated exceptional professionalism, skill, and care. What really stood out to me was his communication. He took the time to explain the procedure thoroughly, answer every single question I had (and I had a lot!), and never made me feel rushed. He made sure I understood exactly what to expect before, during, and after the procedure, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. Dr. Khan's attention to detail is second to none. He was incredibly meticulous with his work, ensuring that everything was done with precision and care. I felt completely confident in his hands, and the results have exceeded my expectations. His thoroughness also extends to aftercare. He gave me clear post-op instructions, and made sure my recovery was smooth. You can tell he genuinely cares about his patients and takes pride in delivering excellent outcomes. If you're considering SmartLipo or any cosmetic procedure, I highly recommend Dr. Khan. His expertise, communication, and attention to every little detail make him one of the best in the field. Thank you, Dr. Khan and the team at Studio MD!

I recently went into StudioMD to have a procedure done by Dr. Khan. Specifically, I wanted to treat excess fat in my abdominal area and decided to opt for smart lipo. Dr. Khan is very sure of himself as a doctor, which put a lot of my woes to the side. This was my first large cosmetic surgery, so I was extremely nervous. On the day of my procedure, I was delayed because some events were happening in the city, and Dr. Khan and his nurses were extremely accommodating. They let me take my time (I had to pee and just couldn't because of nerves until 2 minutes before surgery) and even gave me pep talks and stress balls to calm my nerves. When we got to work, it was quick and effortless. Dr. Khan allowed me to ask as many questions as I wanted and even called the next day to see how I was doing. They prescribed meds that were ready for pickup immediately and even gave me additional meds that I asked for pain management just in case. One of the amazing nurse technicians even text me afterward and shared her favorite shapewear and other things to help with recovery. I know many of these things seem like, "yeah, they should do that", but I've seen a lot of practices that don't. I also felt the price was fairly affordable since I've seen similar pricing outside of NYC. I'm beginning to feel beautiful in my body again, and I am so thankful to Dr. Khan and his staff. I'll be back soon for some other small cosmetic procedures I want to keep up.

I was referred to Dr. Khan to have neck liposuction and decided to also have my midsection done to correct uneven results from another doctor. Understanding that revision work can be difficult... my expectations were low. I could see immediately after the surgery just how much he improved my situation. Dr Khan operates with the confidence of a seasoned professional. You really can't go wrong with this guy.
“I had my lipo with Dr Khan yesterday and today I can already see the desired changes in my waist and belly area ,I am happy with his performance”
Jaw Reduction / TMJ Botox Recovery
Recovery is typically minimal. You may experience mild swelling, tenderness, or small bumps at the injection site, which usually subside within hours. Avoid massaging the area, lying down for several hours, or engaging in strenuous exercise the same day.
Many patients begin noticing muscle relaxation within 1–2 weeks, with slimming effects developing gradually as the masseter muscle reduces in size. Your SoHo provider will provide personalized aftercare guidance and recommend follow-up treatment timelines tailored to your muscle strength and aesthetic goals.
Jaw Reduction / TMJ Botox Results
You can expect improved jaw tension, fewer episodes of clenching, and a slimmer jawline as the masseter muscle softens. Cosmetic contouring typically becomes visible within 4–6 weeks, with full results at 8–10 weeks. Maintenance sessions, held every 3–6 months, help keep the jawline refined and symptoms under control.

Chewing remains normal. You may experience mild, temporary weakness when chewing very tough foods, but your everyday function remains unchanged.
How many units of Botox will I need?
Dosage varies based on muscle size and clenching intensity. Most patients require between 25 and 40 units per side for effective slimming.
Will my face look too narrow?
No. StudioMD SoHo focuses on natural proportions; the goal is to soften excessive width, rather than dramatically altering your facial shape.
Is jaw reduction with Botox painful?
Discomfort is minimal and lasts only seconds. Many compare it to tiny pinches, and numbing is rarely needed.
Can jaw reduction be combined with fillers?
Yes. Some patients pair it with chin or jawline filler to create a more sculpted, balanced lower-face contour. Your provider will make tailored recommendations.
