Was I Overcharged For 70 Units of Botox?

I have been getting botox injections for several years. I recently moved to a new town and visited an aesthetic clinic. I feel like I have been robbed. I usually pay from $300-$375 per visit, so I was in shock when I was charged $980.00. I was told it took 70 units for my forehead and crows feet. Is this normal? It had been one year since my last injection.

A: Botox pricing

Your concerns are understandable. However, you were not over charged for your Botox. Botox can run anywhere from $10.00 to $15.00 per unit, depending on which city you live in. it is best to keep your Botox up every 3-4 months as you will get the best results & value from your injections.

Are Botox Injections Effective to Treat TMJ Syndrome?

I am 27 years old. I developed TMJ Syndrome this year because of the massive amounts of stress in my work and personal life. I do things to various activities to attempt to relieve stress i.e. exercise & etc. However nothing is working I have to take flexeril to make me stop clenching my jaw. Would something like this be a good idea for me to avoid the over usage of Flexeril and motrin 800's?Will it change the appearance of my face?

A: Is Botox effective for TMJ?

As an off-label use of BOTOX, the masseter muscle can be injected which may lead to a lessening of the symptoms associated with TMJ.  And although this is not a permanent fix, it may be very helpful in conjunction with the medications you are currently taking and potentially could allow you to reduce your dependence on some of these meds.

I hope that helps!

Too Much Botox in Smokers Lines - No Movement, Cannot Speak Properly

I have smokers lines, which Im deeply unhappy about. Was recommended botox; $180 worth; and now only 1 day later my top lip is so numb I cannot speak properly. She said 7-10 days would get affects of it. Im so worried its going to get worse. Is there ANYTHING I can do? Please please help. I wish I had got fillers; but was $600, thats why opted for botox at $180. Please please any help/advice for now to stop it or lesson it? Or advice for the future? I live in Perth, Western Australia.

A: Too much BOTOX?

I would agree with the other physicians and say that you were probably over-injected in your lips.  The good news is that the effects should resolve; the bad news is that it may take several weeks to a month for this to happen. 

Some injectors have actually gone back and added a little filler to the lips to increase stiffness which may help.  Otherwise, the only thing to do is to be patient and let it wear off.

I hope that helps!
