Is Botox a solution for correcting a sneering upper lip when I smile?

Asked By:Jcasica in Los Angeles, CA

My natural smile mostly involves lifting up my upper lip muscles which creates a "crinkling" nose or sneering effect. This also happens when I get nervous. I find it unsettling to be honest. I wanted to know if Botox in this area could help relax this area in such a way that would improve my smile?

Answer: It's possible that the lines you are speaking about (crinkling of the nose) have to do with the muscles
