Botox for Scoliosis to Even Out a Lower Shoulder and Slight Head Tilt?

Ling Ling
Can botox be used to even out a lower shoulder and slight tilted head due to scoliosis? I'm 35 and have adult scoliosis with a 10 degree curve. They tell me only spinal surgery can fix scoliosis. Exercise helps relieve the pain but does not help in the appearance portion. The muscle that starts from my neck down to my shoulder is visibly pulling down. Would botox help relax this muscle and make look a little bit higher and more relax? And how many units, if possible?
