I recently had Botox in my chin and platysma bands and now I have the strangest shaped chin! It was very average before, the doctor said it would help smooth my jaw line and reduce marionette lines but now I have what feels like a second nose on my chin! Can anyone suggest a fix or explain to me what happened? What went wrong?
Answer: What happened to my chin? Botox gone bad! Thanks for your question and photos – we always recommend that you have a consultation with a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon as we are the true experts in the use of Botox and understand the anatomy better than anyone else. In your case, you need to find an expert injector, see what was done, and have them determine if there is anything at this time to correct what was done. On occasion, more Botox in proper areas can help; other times, we need to wait until the Botox wears off in 3-4 months. We hope this can be corrected so find the right provider.

Answer: Botox (chin) Thanks for your questions and photos. Unfortunately, your photos are difficult to show results as you are puckering your lips. A resting face would allow better judgement but would also require a before photo. The chin is a sensitive area and it could be that you had too many units. However, I would seek a professional opinion for a board certified dermatologist. Fortunately, the botox will fade in 3-4 months so it is not permanent. Hope this helps!
