Need to Fix Crooked Smile - Will Botox Work?

I've had a crooked smile - I think since birth. I think that it may be a problem with the side of my face - rather than just the smile - let me know your thoughts. It's become a bit of a lifestyle problem - your input is very much appreciated. Will a botox injection work? The cost is around $500 for a 6 month result? Thank you,

A: Botox may help a crooked smile

If your problem is related to the nerve not working or the muscle not functioning then your crooked smile can possibly be treated with botox.  Sometimes lidocaine can be used to mimic the effect of botox to test if muscle paralysis will work on your smile, this usually lasts a few hours.  If it does work, then I would try botox for a longer lasting solution.  You should see a board certified plastic surgeon for this, since they receive specialized training in dealing specifically with these kind of problems in the face.
