As someone who has struggled with chronic jaw pain for years, I was desperate to find a solution that worked. My TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorder had become unbearable, affecting everything from my ability to eat comfortably to my quality of sleep. I had tried various treatments, including physical therapy and night guards, but nothing provided lasting relief. That’s when I stumbled upon a video from Skinbiotic Med Spa in Westwood, Los Angeles, discussing a treatment that piqued my interest: Masseter Botox injections for TMJ.
In the video, the provider explains how Botox can be used to relax the masseter muscles, which are often the culprits behind TMJ pain. I was intrigued by the idea that a treatment typically associated with cosmetic procedures could be used for therapeutic purposes. What caught my attention even more was the emphasis on the importance of having this procedure done by a certified and experienced injector. The masseter muscles play a crucial role in jaw movement, and a poorly performed injection could lead to unwanted complications or even worsen the problem. Knowing that Kami was an expert in this area gave me the confidence I needed to consider this option seriously.
After doing some research, I discovered that Skinbiotic Med Spa has a stellar reputation for offering advanced aesthetic treatments, and their team is known for their expertise and attention to detail. Despite living in Calabasas, I decided to make the trip to Westwood, Los Angeles, to consult with Kami, the lead injector l, who was actually specifically certified to treat a TMJ using Botox. During my consultation, I was impressed by her knowledge and the time she took to explain the procedure, potential results, and even the minor risks involved. It was clear that she was not only skilled but also genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome for her patients.
I decided to go ahead with the treatment, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Within 3 days I started feeling the relief, and that was just the beginning of the treatment starting to work. Not only did the injections alleviate the pain and tension in my jaw, but I also noticed the bonus that was mentioned in the video: my face appeared slimmer. The reduction in the size of my masseter muscles gave my face a more contoured look, which was definitely welcomed.
Over the past year, I’ve returned to Skinbiotic Med Spa for follow-up treatments every three to four months. Each time, Kami has been meticulous and attentive, ensuring that the results are consistent and effective. This treatment has truly been life-changing for me. I can now eat without discomfort, my headaches have diminished, and I no longer wake up with jaw pain from grinding my teeth. It’s incredible how something as simple as a few carefully placed injections can have such a profound impact on my quality of life.
If you’re struggling with TMJ and are tired of living with constant pain, I highly recommend exploring Masseter Botox injections at Skinbiotic Med Spa. This treatment has given me back my life, and I’m forever grateful to Kami and the entire team for their expertise and care. Whether you’re in Los Angeles or willing to travel like I did, it’s worth consulting with them to see if this could be the solution you’ve been looking for.
The cost of the procedure depends on the number of units your particular Masseter muscles will need, at $12 per unit. I learned that typically about 20–28 units are needed on each side, based on the size and strength of the Masseter muscles. After examining my jaw, she recommended 22 units, and that turned out to be perfect.
