What is muscle slimming?
Muscle slimming refers to various non-surgical cosmetic procedures that reduce the size of targeted muscles. It can be performed on both the face and body to create a slimmer look and refine shapes and proportions.
Unlike surgical reshaping, muscle slimming methods aim to relax overactive or bulky muscles, allowing them to reduce in size. This creates softer contours without altering bone structure or removing tissue.
During your consultation at Cosmetic Connection, a qualified medical professional will listen to your concerns, carefully evaluate your anatomy, discuss your goals and options, and provide personalised treatment recommendations.
How muscle slimming works
Certain muscles in the face and body can naturally become overactive or enlarged over time. This can be due to genetics, repeated use, or even posture and lifestyle factors. When these muscles are larger than average, they can influence the proportions and overall contour of the face or body.
Muscle slimming treatments generally work by relaxing these muscles so they are less active in day-to-day movement. As the muscle activity reduces, the muscle is used less, and over time it becomes smaller in size. This gradual change aims to create a slimmer, more refined contour in the treated area.
The process
- Targeting the muscle – The specific muscle influencing your face or body shape is identified during your consultation.
- Precise application – The treatment is carefully performed at targeted points using methods appropriate to your needs, as determined during a consultation.
- Reduced activity – With the muscle less active, it begins to reduce in size over the following weeks.
- Ongoing maintenance – As changes are temporary, periodic maintenance is required if you wish to maintain results.
Why it looks natural
Because the reduction in muscle size happens gradually, changes to your appearance are subtle and natural-looking. Instead of a sudden transformation, you’ll notice a progressive changes.
Longevity of results
The length of time results last varies from person to person and depends on:
- The size and strength of the treated muscle
- Your activity levels and habits
- Specific details of your treatment plan
For most people, the slimmer contour is noticeable for several months to a year before the muscle slowly returns to its previous size.
Where muscle slimming is used
Muscle slimming can be applied to several areas of the face and body where enlarged muscles affect shape and proportion.
Lower face & jawline (Masseter muscles)
Overdeveloped masseter muscles can create a square or heavy-set jawline. By reducing the size of the masseter muscles, the lower face may appear slimmer.
Temples (Temporalis muscles)
Some people have prominent temporalis muscles that create a bulge at the sides of the head. Gradual reduction of this muscle may create a smoother profile from the front and side.
Calves (Gastrocnemius muscles)
Large calf muscles can make the legs appear bulky, even in lean individuals. Targeted calf muscle slimming may help create a slimmer leg profile, with a longer lower leg shape.
Neck & shoulders (Trapezius muscles)
Enlarged trapezius muscles can give the shoulders and neck a bulkier appearance. Reducing the trapezius muscles may create a slimmer neckline, lengthening the neck and balancing upper body proportions.
Potential benefits of muscle slimming

People’s experiences of discomfort vary, but most report only mild, brief discomfort with non-surgical muscle slimming treatments.
Most treatments involve the use of numbing to minimise discomfort.
Muscle slimming typically takes 5-20 minutes, depending on the treatment method, extent, and area.
The results from muscle slimming fade slowly, generally over 6-12 months.
The longevity depends on the treatment method, extent, and area.
After muscle slimming treatments, proper aftercare helps with healing and your result.
Avoid alcohol and intense exercise for 24 hours, and do not touch the treated muscles for 4-6 hours.
When performed by a qualified medical professional, muscle slimming treatments are categorised as a low-risk treatment. Common risks include redness and bruising. Rarely, temporary muscle weakness may occur.
