Asked By:bethyoung in Houston, TX

After getting three (3) cc's of Botox injected into the center of my chin, I have swelling that looks like a large fish-oil capsule was implanted in the center of my chin. It appears to have liquid in it, but isn't painful. Should I be concerned, and will it go away soon? The doctor said perhaps we should inject more Botox, but that doesn't sound like a good idea to me. What is your advice please?
