Can Masseter Botox Results Be Reversed?

ive Done Masster Thrice in 3yrs .But Feel That the Natural Jawline I Had Was Better.

A: Masseter and botox

As you are aware, Botox will diminish its activity over time and it could lead to mild atrophy of the masseter muscles. If you prefer larger masseters, over time with extended use, the masseter muscle mass will enlarge and thereby provide you with a different appearance. Activities such as chewing gum can increase the use of masseter muscle and girth.

Under Eye Still Puffy 9 Months After Botox

hi! i had botox injected for the first time on the crows feet area 9 months ago. the next day i had a puffy bag section under my left eye that i have never had before in my life (i am 40) i've never had bags under my eyes, and only had a few fine lines before getting the botox. it's 9 months later and that little puffy bag is still there. will it ever go away? did the botox permanently paralyze that muscle and it is not able to get rid of the fluid under that eye now? help!!

A: botox and bags

The botox did not cause the bulging that you describe especially after 9 months. While the botox injections might have reduced the orbicularis muscle activity in the corner of the eyelids, there is a high likelihood that the puffiness were present prior to the procedure but became more apparent as you were less concerned with the crows feet.

Botox Didn't Work for Eye Wrinkles - Should I Get Fillers?

Hi team thanks to your responses from my past question - i got botox twice now with a leading surgeon under my lash line and also in my temples to try and weaken the muscle which is causing my horrid eye wrinkles when i smile. The lady has now suggested fillers to plump up the skin under my eye which would result in there not being that fold of skin when i smile as it would be nice and plump. Any comments before i go ahead? thanks team!

A: Eyelid Wrinkles

Based on your photos, you would be a candidate for a lower blepharoplasty woth emphasis of removing excess skin. Seek the advice of an eyelid specialist. Good luck
