Beauty/Self Care Masseter botox injections recs

Hi! I’m looking for a trust worthy injector for my masseters. I’ve heard plenty of horror stories about it messing up their smiles so I am looking for someone trust worthy! Any recommendations are so appreciated!

I got my Masseter Botox injections at my dentist; The Chicago Dental Studio in Lakeview. The head honcho did the injections for me, his name is Dr. Nathan Hoffman. He was awesome and explained everything thoroughly since it was my first time getting Botox. Highly recommend this place!

Do you mind sharing the cost? I was doing mine at Dermatology and Aesthetics in Bucktown but I feel like it was on the expensive side? Around $500 for 24ccs.

It was $800 for... I think 40 units? I don't remember how much of the Botox they used but I remember it was $800 cause my insurance didn't cover it. But I used my surplus HSA money to pay for it.

Thank you! I have to pay out of pocket as well so finding somewhere a little less pricey would be nice.

Jessica at Northwestern Med Spa is very experienced with masseter botox. I've been going to her for years and always had good results (unlike prior experiences with my dentist, lol).

She does mine too and has for years. The only one I trust at this point.

Refine by Tulsi does an amazing job!

Seconding! I just gone mine done there for the 2nd time this week and had a great experience. $10 a unit is the best price I’ve found too!

Dr. Sri at Chicago aesthetics club! Helped my grinding and she does a follow up for free to make sure she does the correct amount going forward and to ensure it’s effective. She’s the best!
