A doctor told me that he gets charged a certain amount for Botox per unit by allergan and a different amount for Botox Cosmetic. I was very confused because I thought it was the same. I'm looking to have Botox done on my jaw to help with TMJ. What is the difference between the two and which one should I get?

It is difficult to tell from the photos but most likely the injections were not placed lateral enough which is a common mistake and makes you look like the devil or the Jocker/more Botox placed laterally will correct the problem
Thank you for your question. Botox can be injected into the mentalis muscle to help improve a cobblestone appearance (peau d’orange). This typically takes 4-6 units of Botox. I recommend having a consultation with an expert to determine the best treatment plan for you. Best of Luck!
Thank you for your question. If you had Botox
injected into your scalp it should not cause itchiness. If you had Botox
injected for cosmetic reasons this would be unrelated. I recommend contacting
your neurologist for an evaluation. Best of Luck!
