I’ve been getting Botox for awhile. I commonly get it in my forehead and crows feet. I have had it in my chin one time before to reduce how my muscle pulls my smile down. I decided to get it done a second time in addition to my normal Botox, but now my smile is jacked up. I’m assuming it’s from the Botox in my chin. When I smile, my bottom lip curls over my bottom teeth instead of widening as usual. First photo is my normal smile. Other photos (pink hair) are with the bad Botox. What happened?
Answer: I am so sorry you are unhappy with your botox. Thank you for your question! I am so sorry you are unhappy with your botox. Of course, without seeing you in person it is hard to specifically say what "went wrong", a number of factors including excessive product, injection technique, product movement after injection, etc...the best and worst part of botox is that it is temporary. In 2 weeks to 4 months, it will resolve on its own. My recommendation to you is to contact your injector so this person can evaluate you, and make a plan to make sure this doesn't happen to you again. I personally believe having a relationship with the doctor who does your injections is important, I usually like people to return in a few weeks so I can see how the injections are settling in You look great in all the pictures, the affect you are referring to is very subtle. Best of luck!

Answer: Unhappy with Botox on Chin Thank you for your question, and I am sorry to hear that you are unhappy with your botox results. There are a number of reasons why the botox is not precisely how you were expecting. You should discuss your concerns with your treating provider so that they can review the product placement, injection technique, and units used. They should be able to come up with a new plan for the next time you are treated so that you are happier with the results. We are our own worst critics and the poor results you are seeing on yourself are hardly noticeable to others. Also, botox wears off in a few months so it is not permanent. Hang in there, but be sure to contact your treating provider to discuss your treatment. I hope this helps. Best of luck to you!
