Journal CME Article: Tips and Tricks for Facial Toxin Injections with Illustrated Anatomy V3

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses the technique for masseter injections, highlighting the importance of identifying anatomical borders and landmarks. The superior margin is defined from the tragus to the oral commissure. Special attention is given to avoiding the rosarius muscle, which overlaps the masseter, by staying at least a centimeter from its anterior edge. The procedure utilizes a one-inch needle for deeper penetration, following a five-point technique to distribute 40 units of toxin equally across the regions. The presenter emphasizes that using a BD needle is inadequate for reaching the deeper parts of the masseter.
