I'll cover my experience in 2 posts. The first on why I stopped, and in the second part I'll cover what I do now instead.
So background:
- I did around 5 to 6 sessions of jaw botox in total spread out over a few years
- The primary reason for it was my heavy teeth grinding and TMJ issues (tension headaches, jaw pain).
Did it help? Tremendously.
So why did I stop?
1. Cost 💸
Depending on where you go, you might be charged by unit, or a fixed price. Regardless, on average , you can expect to pay around SGD800 (before GST and upwards).
In the initial stages, I was advised to go every 4-6 months, and after which I could taper it off to every to 6-8 months or longer even if you find the effects are still there)
2. Non- permanent solution 🌨️
Jaw botox is a band-aid solution. It's a short term solution to something that likely has some underlying cause. In spite of the good effects, I couldn't justify paying so much for an injectable that didn't address the root cause...
3. Jowls 🤷
Yup. I heard about this but didn't believe it until I saw it developing on myself. Why it happens to some and not to others, I don't know. But yup, i didn't like it. It made me look haggard
In my next post, I'll talk about what I do now instead to address the teeth grinding and TMJ.
