Injector says she injected 1.5 units of dysport on each side of my upper lip, now food/liquid is falling out of my mouth, I have very little chewing motion. cannot use my upper lip to slide food off a spoon, can't use a straw to sip. Could 1.5 units cause this or is it likely she injected a more? I asked for filler, she said it's not the norm to put filler there. When I asked about side effects, I was told "some people may have a problem pronouncing certain letters afterwards, but that's all."

Thank you for the question, what you've described with your Botox goals could easily be accomplished with injecting Botox in a method called a "Chemical Brow Lift". This typically takes about 40 units and you can expect a subtle lateral brow lift and softening of lined on the forehead.Starting...
I generally advise people to not rub the treated Botox area for a couple of hours after treatment. The risk is the spread of the Botox to muscles that were not targeted during treatment. Are you sure this was Botox?
