Distorted face when I laugh after I get Botox - is this normal?

qsandreviews
Over the years I have tried botox four times, minimal amount to crows feet-one drop under each eye, 5 units per eye & I do 10 units to my 11s.... Every. Single. Time. I feel my face distort in a weird way when I laugh after doing botox.. two of the four times my posed/practiced smile looked fine (the other two times my smile was iffy) but when I laughed I could feel my face twist strangely/crooked-no clue what I looked like though when laughing- is this normal??
