Is there a right or wrong way to insert Botox in masseter?

September 20, 2017
Asked By:lannle in İstanbul, Turkey

I had 2 treatments in the masseter area, for both of the treatments it was inserted while relax. When I went for my third top up I was told by the nurse to clench my teeth during the whole process. (All treatments are different Drs and nurses) My masseter aches more than the last 2 treatments. I know every drs and nurses have their own technics. I just wanna make sure if it's okay with what I went through.
