Overview
Targeting the masseter muscle for muscle hypertrophy, bruxism, or myofascial pain is a frequently requested treatment for neuromodulators. Despite a very low adverse events profile, pitfalls need to be understood and avoided. This video provides a comprehensive clinical and anatomic review of the masseter muscle itself and of the injection site which empowers injectors toward safer procedures.
