Efficacy of Incobotulinum toxin‐A for the treatment of masseter muscle hypertrophy in Asian Indian patients: A 2‐year follow‐up study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: ; Merz Pharma Canada Ltd., Burlington, ON, Canada) are a preferred modality for reducing the volume of the muscle and therefore reducing the width of masseter. AIMS: To evaluate the efficacy of Xeomin treatment in long-term management of bilateral masseter hypertrophy in Asian Indian patients. PATIENTS/METHODS: A total of 30 patients were enrolled in the study and were injected with 30 U Xeomin on each side of face, at baseline. Fifteen patients received a second session of Xeomin injection at 12th week, and remaining 15 patients received an additional third session, at 12th and 24th weeks post the first injection, respectively. Follow-up was done at 4th-, 12th-, 24th-, and 36th-week and at first- and second-year follow-ups. RESULTS: For the patients who received two injections, the maximum reduction of 26.85% was observed at 24th week, which was maintained as 20.04% reduction until second follow-up year. The patients who received three injections exhibited very high reduction of 43.12% of masseter volume at 36th week, which was maintained at 38.72 % until the second follow-up year. Three sessions of Xeomin injections were proved to be more effective in long-term maintenance of reduced masseter volume than 2 sessions of injections. CONCLUSIONS: Xeomin injections were found to be effective in long-term management of bilateral masseter hypertrophy. This is the first of its kind paper, which evaluates the long-term effects of Xeomin injections for the treatment of masseter hypertrophy.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
