It is rarely painful in itself and patients seek medical trea-mentfor cosmetic reasons. Treament to date has generally been by surgical reduction of bulk of masseter muscle with or without bony resection of the mandibular angle from either an intraoral or extraoral approach. It is being postulated that, using of botulinum toxin in the treament of bilateral masseteric hypertropy is a new and innovative method which might offers many advantages over conventional surgical treament. In this study two cases of bilateral masseteric hypertrophy which were successfully treated with botulinum toxin type A are presented. Key words: Benign masseteric hypertrophy, botulinum toxin type A, medical treament.
