Asked By:farah87 in Kuwait

its been 7 days since I got my first injection with Botox to fix my gummy smile.. I got injected with 10 units of botox and now I have a crocked smile is this normal? They told me to wait 2 weeks to see the final results.. I am not happy with my smile I don't feel comfortable.. I booked another appointment to talk to my dr and try to fix this issue.. Any suggestions? Should I add more Botox to the higher side?
