i had total of 10unit of botox on my chin. the sites that doctor injected was blue points in the last photo. when i did with same doctor last year, it went good. please see photos. but this time i feel the muscle under the bottom lip is in tense and pushing the bottom lip upward and to center. i feel uncomfortable and tired to talk especially when smiling and talk. should i add more botox? if so, where should be injected? will injecting on the red points in the photo help or make it worse?

Answer: More botox is not the answer Botox in the chin and help to relax the muscle of the chin and elongate the appearance of the chin. However, too much botox can also affect the lip muscles. It appears that you are having some weakness in your lips. If you add more botox this uncomfortable feeling can increase. I recommend being patient and waiting for the botox on the lip to start to wear off. You will start to feel better in the next few weeks. Take care! Tarek

Answer: Lip depressors got blocked The injections were given to central and should have been lateral to the lower dots closer to an imaginary line drawn from the NL folds at the side of your mouth. In this area the lip depressor was blocked so yet the lower lip will raise in invert a bit. Unfortunately nothing you can do but wait. It will resolve in about 3 months.
