I had 2 small vertical platysmal bands underneath my chin. Botox was injected by my cosmetic dermatologist -days after the bands became exaggerated. Now they are noticeable looking at me head on whereas before I would have to look upwards to see them. I went back and he injected more Botox directly into the bands and surrounding areas. It's been over a month . I'm 37. I want to know if my neck will return to its pre-Botox state after it wears off? Could this have caused permanent damage? .

Thank you for your question. I believe your reaction is from what was used to prepare your skin for the Botox injections. I recommend contacting your treating physician for an evaluation. Also, keep monitoring your skin for any signs of an allergic reaction. Best of Luck!
Thank you for your question. You would benefit with a combination treatment of Botox and Juvederm. I would use Botox in the DAO muscle and Juvederm in the corners of the mouth and marionette lines. I recommend having a consultation with an experienced injector to determine the best treatment...
