Will Botox help my uneven, puffy smile? (Photo)

Question

I’m 28 and have had masseter Botox a couple times a few years ago. When I smile I feel ugly, my thin lips disappear, my face gets weird lines, my cheeks and eyes look puffy, and my jaw looks wide and uneven. I want to find a solution that’s non surgical or has no downtime, but I don’t know if Botox is the answer, and I’m scared of filler. How can I achieve a more beautiful, feminine smile?

From the description of your concerns you may have the best result from a combination of treatments.  Botox to the masseter muscle can help slim the jawline.  Fillers can be used in the lips to add conservative volume and highlight shape.  Fillers in the lips do not have to result in an overinflated look!  When done by an expert injector you can expect a natural enhancement to the lips.

Hello; You have very beautiful and big eyes; but you have thin lips that do not match with them. For 28 years old young girl, eye and lip sizes should be close to each other. Due to this, I recommend for you getting fillers on your lips for both volume and contour. My preference is Maili. It's very fluid. It does not leave any nodules. It remains intact for a year. That's why, Maili which is a superior technological product of Oxygen-Free technology; will give both shape and volume to your lips. You have prognathia problem in your jaw. So, especially when you smile, your chin becomes more forward. The upper lip lags behind and disappears. This may disturb you while laughing. You can partially prevent from this with lip filling. Having your lower lip slightly forward, especially from the side, will give you a natural and beautiful smile. I advise for you AquaShine to give face lift, moisture and shine. This product, consists of uncross-linked Hyaluronic Acid and skin revitalizing vitamins,minerals and they will make you very happy.
