July 2, 2009
Asked By:pma0829 in San Diego

I had a Brow lift and Botox was used on my forehead now my smile is dead. I can not move my upper lip normally. I had a beautiful smile before the brow lift now my upper lip does not move when I smile. I can pucker and move it find only when I smile it does not react. The lift was done 2 weeks ago. My doctor is researching the cause but I do not feel comfortable with this situation.
