Facial Asymmetry and Paralysis After Botox

June 18, 2009
Asked By:ABCox in Portsmouth, Ohio

Is it normal for one side of my face to be larger or fatter than the other after Botox and with smile paralysis four months after the injections? That side feels very heavy when I smile as well. How long can the smile paralysis last? Will my face ever be symmetrical again?
