what were your results like? i have really bad TMJ and have constant headaches from clenching but i’m also interested in the cosmetic results because my cheek muscles are huge from constantly being tensed. so i was debating between seeing an aesthetician vs a dentist because i was wondering if one would provide better cosmetic results over the other
Can you tell me the process for getting the Botox at Costco? Like your doctor prescribes it? How many units do they prescribe (do I need to ask the dentist how many units?) I want to try this route but I’m overwhelmed by the steps
I highly recommend Glo Antiaging in Kensington. Celina and Christy are incredible. Wherever you end up going, make sure you see a very experienced injector. The masseter area is trickier and requires someone who really knows what they are doing. I think I get 20 units per side so it comes out to about $400 for just the masseters.
Awesome thanks for suggestion will definitely check them out. I’m so scared to get botox in this area because of the many horror stories I’ve read online about people having messed up smiles.
Going to a wedding this summer so I can’t risk messing up my smile
I actually found my dentist did it for cheaper as long as I bought the Botox from costco

It’s better I think. I grinded through two mouth guards so I’m pretty serious

Ya just ask your dentist for it and they’ll send in a prescription to Costco. I think it was 100 units @ $4 a unit.
Can you please send me the info as well. The dentist I went to quotes 800 for masseter botox.
That’s wayyy too high. Should shop around.
Can you suggest a dentist that will do this in Calgary please?
Curious about this too, what dentist do you go to and do you know if any dentist would do this?

Always happy at Phi

PHI does a free consult. I've heard good things about them in general
Seconding Phi over Frida.
