Will the masseter muscle rebound after face slimming injection?

There are two main methods to slim down the masseter muscle. One is to directly remove the hypertrophic masseter muscle through surgery, but this method has sequelae; the other is to inject the masseter muscle. This method is a non-surgical method. It will not cause surgical wound infection and relies on drugs to maintain the effect. But will there be a rebound after injecting the masseter muscle? This is the key question.

If you want to know whether there will be a rebound, you need to understand masseter muscle injection. Injection of face slimming mainly uses specific drugs to inject into the masseter muscle to shrink the masseter muscle to an ideal size, thus creating more beautiful facial lines. However, injection of the masseter muscle requires careful selection of injection materials, and the face slimming method should be selected according to your own situation. Not every material is suitable for everyone.

Putting aside the timeliness, masseter muscle injection is safer than surgical removal of the masseter muscle, and the effect is also quite good. In addition to contracting the masseter muscle, this injection can also be used to smooth expression lines. The principle is to block the nerve impulses between nerves and muscles, relax over-contracted muscles, and paralyze overdeveloped muscles to achieve the effect of slimming the face. The effect of the injection appears slowly, and the effect begins to appear about two weeks to one month after the injection.

The effect is indeed relatively good, but injection of the masseter muscle is relatively targeted, and only some facial problems can be solved by this method. Specifically, the bloated face caused by hypertrophy of the masseter muscle can be improved by this face-slimming method. It is not applicable to other face-slimming problems. For example, a round face caused by thick buccal fat pad requires professional buccal fat pad removal to effectively slim the face.

How to slim down cheek and masseter muscles?

Method 1

Control salt intake, especially canned and pickled foods, which not only have potentially high calories, but can also lead to poor circulation and edema.

Method 2

Blowing up 5 balloons every day can train your face to alternate between tense and relaxed states, and gradually relieve the condition of underdeveloped muscles. It should be noted that you must blow up the balloons slowly. The slower and more evenly you blow, the better the effect.

Method 3

(1) Use the middle and ring fingers of both hands to press the center of the chin close to the lower lip and pull upward and to both sides toward the ears with moderate force and speed. Pause at the base of the ear, press for one second, release, and repeat 5 times. Doing so can effectively lift the cheek muscles, strengthen the curvature of the face and improve the angular chewing muscles.

(2) Press the sides of the nose with the middle and ring fingers of both hands, and pull them towards the temples on both sides. Don't use too much force. Pause after reaching your temple, press for one second, release, and repeat 5 times. This can make the connection between the facial muscles smooth and reduce the gap between protrusions and depressions.
