Answer: Botox for Masseter Muscles Dear sillyeyldy,Botox for masseters should not affect your smile. Another facial muscle was likely affected. Unfortunately, there is no way to reverse Botox but the good news is that it will wear off in 3-4 months. Always make sure your injector has extensive knowledge of anatomy and is appropriately qualified, such as a board certified plastic surgeon. Good luck and sorry to hear you have a suboptimal result.Nirmal R. Nathan, M.D.Certified, American Board of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Plastic Surgeons
