Can I Use a Filler Instead of Botox for Forehead Wrinkle if I Had Bells Palsy?

6547anon
I had Bells' Palsy a few years ago and have I would say 5% left over droop (no one can tell unless I tell them). In addition, had severe Lyme Disease for several years. I have been recovered for over a year now but am scared to put botox in my forehead. I am getting married in 6 months and hate my forehead wrinkle! I am 30 am saddened by the fact I can't fix this. Help. Can I use Juvaderm? I really don't want to risk any paralysis. Thank you.
