Neurotoxin treatments aren't just for smoothing forehead lines anymore. One of the most popular new requests we're seeing at The Spa at MPS is masseter toxin - a quick, effective treatment that can both contour the lower face and relieve jaw tension.

Whether your goal is to achieve a more sculpted jawline or to ease symptoms of teeth grinding or TMJ, masseter injections can make a noticeable difference with minimal downtime.

What Is Masseter Toxin?

The masseter muscle is one of the main muscles used for chewing. For some people, this muscle becomes overactive from clenching or grinding, leading to jaw pain, tension, and even a wider or more square jaw appearance.

Injecting small amounts of neurotoxin (like Botox®, Dysport®, Jeuveau®, Xeomin®, or Daxxify®) into this muscle helps it relax over time, softening the jawline and reducing strain.

At The Spa at MPS, our lead injector, Trina, customizes the product and dosage based on your unique anatomy, concerns, and goals - so your results look natural and balanced.

Benefits of Masseter Toxin

Slimmer, more contoured jawline

Relief from jaw tension and teeth grinding

Improved facial symmetry

No downtime and minimal discomfort

Results that last 3-6 months

You may notice a softer jawline within a few weeks as the muscle gradually relaxes, with full results appearing after about one month.

How Much Does It Cost?

Pricing depends on the neurotoxin used and how much is needed for your individual anatomy. The Spa at MPS, current pricing is:

 Botox®, Jeuveau®, Xeomin®: $14/unit

 Daxxify®: $10.50/unit

Dysport®: $4.50/unit

Trina will provide a personalized quote during your appointment.

Mays Spa is my HAPPY place for the serene ambiance, their kindness, and the fabulous services I've had (Botox, Cool Peel, facials, derma planing, etc.), but Trina is simply "aMAYzing" as an expert in Botox injections. Her extensive medical background as a registered nurse gives her precise knowledge of the intricate facial muscles and how they work together to restore and maintain a soft & youthful look in her patients. I came to her desperate for help after an 8-year struggle with very obvious asymmetry in my face after a severe case of Bell's palsy in 2018. I couldn't smile normally or completely close my left eye, even after seeing countless medical doctors, ENT and facial nerve specialists, other Botox injectors, and many years of acupuncture on my face. No treatment made much difference until I found her at Mays Spa. She is a **miracle worker**, but I'll let the before and after photos speak for themselves (attached to post). Trina has exponentially improved my quality of life (after all, your face is your calling card), and I adore her and the whole team at Mays Spa. Signed, a GRATEFUL school teacher.

I had an amazing experience with Dr. Gross and his team! I recently had a CoolPeel laser treatment, and the results have been incredible. From the moment I walked into the office, I felt welcomed and comfortable. The office itself is beautiful, clean, and professional.Dr. Gross was friendly, knowledgeable, and made me feel at ease throughout the entire procedure. He consistently checked on my comfort level and explained everything clearly, which made the experience stress-free and enjoyable.The results exceeded my expectations. My skin looks brighter, smoother, and has a healthy glow. I could see a noticeable difference almost immediately after the treatment.I highly recommend Dr. Gross and his amazing staff to anyone considering laser treatments or other aesthetic procedures. The level of care, professionalism, and attention to detail was truly exceptional. 10/10 experience!
