She says nothing can been done to evaporate botox once administered. Really ?? i have to wait 3/4months. Myou smile has always been the brightest on my face. Won nicest
Answer: TIME IS THE TREATMENT. Fortunately, Botox wears off in time. It cannot be reversed. The duration averages about 3 to 4 months, but the paralysis tapers off and the lip may improve long before the that. If the asymmetry is severe, it is not prudent to match the other side. Time is the treatment.

Answer: Crooked smile after chin Botox, is there anything I can do? There is no medication to reduce the effects of the Botox. If your smile is crooked because a muscle is too relaxed on one side of the face then injecting a few units on the other side can make you look more even. Next time, the chin is injected I would suggest you consider using less units and injecting very low on the Mentalis muscle and away from the lips.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO :)

Answer: Botox Hello and thank you for your question. I am sorry to hear about this. There are two options. You could either wait 3-4 months for the botox to wear off or you could potentially inject the opposite side.

Answer: Crooked Smile After Botox Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, Botox cannot be reversed. Your smile is crooked because inadvertently the DLI muscle was hit. You have two options here: You can wait till the Botox wears off in 3-4 months or you can have a few units injected on the other side to make your smile more even. I suggest the next time you have your chin injected using less units and injecting low on Mentalis muscle and away from the lips. I recommend having a follow up with your injector to determine the best treatment plan for you. Best of Luck!

Answer: Crooked Smile After Botox I'm so sorry that you're experiencing this. It's really hard to say how best to manage this without pictures. It is true that once administered, there is nothing that can be done to reverse the effects of botox - it's one of the reasons that it's so important to have a very experienced injector you can totally trust.
