Wait it out

Otto Joseph Placik, MD answers: How can I get rid of Botox side effects?

An esthetician/nurse put Botox around my mouth and chin apparently to correct jowls and soften lines. I can no longer smile wide, see my bottom teeth or pronounce many words. Is there anything I can do to make negative effects of Botox go away soon?

There is nothing that will really reverse or expedite the metabolism of Botox once it is injected.

Sorry to say, you will have to wait it out. Doing anything else could make it worse.
