Uneven botox and filler combination result to treat a cleft in chin, what should I do? (photos)

Question

I got chin botox 10 days ago to try and treat a cleft - it left my chin uneven but didn't do much else. Yesterday afternoon, I received a filler treatment to erase the cleft. My profile looks great, but where my chin was uneven from botox remains uneven now. Should I massage the filler so that my chin looks even now or will that just leave it uneven again when the botox wears off?

Andrew P. Trussler, MD · Answer

When Botox and Filler have been added to an area and there are residual issues it would be best to allow the Botox to wear off which in the chin will be soon. Leave the filler alone because this is the likely correction for the issue and not Botox.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

It takes 1-2 weeks for final results with Botox and fillers. I would wait 2 weeks before assessing results. If you're unhappy with your final results, you can have the filler reversed with hyaluronidase and Botox results can be softened with venus legacy. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

You may have some residual swelling from the Juvederm treatment.  I would wait 1-2 weeks to allow the tissues to settle.  If at that time you still have concerns return to your injector for an evaluation.

Georgios Ziakas, MD, FACS · Answer

Massaging the area may help the swelling subside. If deformity continues after 2 weeks follow up with your doctor for evaluation and treatment e.g. repeat injection.

Ed Breazeale, Jr., MD · Answer

Hello and thank you for your question. It is common to have some level of asymmetry after an injectable treatment due to swelling. I would follow the post procedure care that was given to you by your injector and if the uneven appearance is still visible after 3-4 days schedule a follow up appointment. Good luck to you!
