The 360 Degree Lipo Tummy Tuck

We have a set of muscles on either side of our jaw called the masseters. These thick muscles are used for chewing. Unfortunately, they can become thickened and hypertrophied if you grind your teeth at night, have TMJ (temporo-mandibular joint) disorder, chew excessive gum or clench your jaw with stress.
