Dimples disappeared after Botox for Jawline Reduction (after)

beedee
I have had bruxism since I was a kid. My doctor recommended botox on my masseter muscles to weaken them. A nice side effect would be the slimming of my jawline, of course. However, he didn't mention AT ALL that my dimples would disappear! If I had known that this would happen, I wouldn't have opted to have the procedure. Now I don't trust him at all. I would like to ask other professionals if my dimples would reappear once the botox leaves my system, and how long it would take. :(
