Hi. I had a bad masseter Botox procedure a year ago. Very high dose and as my muscles were exceptionally prominent this caused skin laxity. The muscles have started to grow back however I have noticed that my skin has sagged a lot, particularly the jaw and cheek area. These photos are 1 year apart and I feel u have aged 10. Would a lower facelift be my best option to restore my face or what would you recommend? It's really getting me down. Thank you in advance. Ps I know I need my lips done
