I would like both sides of my face to look like my left side. My right cheek is much larger and my smile is uneven. The muscle on my left cheek is larger but somehow feels weak. It causes crinkling under my eye that makes me look even more assymmeteical
Answer: Improving Facial Asymmetry with Botox Thank you for posting your question. I see the asymmetry that you are noticing in your smile. Everyone has some natural asymmetry and botox can potentially help in some areas to make your face appear more symmetrical. Specifically, Botox injections to your right DAO muscle can release the muscle and allow the right side of your smile to match the left. Botox may be able to help even out your brows as well, however I recommend starting with a minimal amount in order to avoid over correction. On average, the effects of Botox last approximately 3-4 months, at which time the treatment can be repeated if you like the results. For the concerns you specified here, I do not recommend filler at this time. With this level of detail, I strongly recommend consulting a board-certified specialist who is very experienced with Botox injections.

Answer: Asymmetrical face This is a commonly asked question. In many cases Botox and fillers are excellent for improving facial symmetry and balance. Neuromodulators like Botox can improve asymmetric smiles and other dynamic changes. Fillers are useful to improve volume differences from one side of the face to the other. Good luck

Answer: Asymmetrical Smile Good afternoon. Thank you for your questions and pictures. Although, most people have slight asymmetry of their faces, this is completely normal. However, people do try to improve these findings if possible. I feel Botox would be very beneficial to help with the wrinkles a great deal and you would be very satisfied. As for Juvederm, I would need a few more side and oblique photos to make a better decision. Thank you for your questions and wishing you the very best of luck.Dr. Aimee Nguyen
