Is it safe to have Botox & kenalog steroid injection inserted into the same muscle?

Original876956Apr 14, 2023
I'm in a lot of pain for my TMJ but my next round of botox isn't due for another entire month i'm desperate and wondering if I can get a steroid injection into the muscle while I wait for the next round despite already having botox in it. Thank you.

To tighten skin you can consider AccuTite. This procedure can be done in conjunction with Morpheus8 for optimal results, or either procedure can be done stand alone. Visit with a board certified plastic surgeon near you or go to our webiste to learn more.

The facial muscles are supported by the bone and teeth of the jaws. It looks like you likely have an underdeveloped maxilla. Need to see wide smile but I think you may be good candidate for DNA Appliance. Ira L Shapira DDS, D,ABDSM, D,AAIPM, FICCMO, MICCMO Editor in Chief: CRANIO..Journal...

From your photos you appear to be a candidate for chin Botox. It should soften the dimpling appearance. The treatment is done in the office with final results seen after 14 days. They will fade gradually over three to four months typically. See an expert injector near you for treatment.
