Asked By:arosevi_ in Newport Beach, CA

I am getting treated with botox for tmj since I constantly clench my jaw and grind my teeth. I am only getting ten units on either side of my jaw and ten units on either side of my temples which will help with headaches. 40 units total. Will I still get a slimming effect from this many units or would it require more? Will my temples also slim down?! I am very confused as to how this would work.
