Chin Tightens and Locks Involuntarily After Botox

User Avatar

I tried botox in my chin for severe dimpling. Was happy afterwards but now 4 weeks later, it locks up into a cramp on its own for 5 minutes at a time. Usually upon the slightest touch. Its hard all the time and pitted like acne scars. Can anyone help me? Im 43,lucky to not have one wrinkle but now I have a chin that looks like a monster. Im a model and I cant work like this. I even get a crease under my mouth afterwards because it was so tight and my lower lip wont relax during it either!
