Usually when getting Botox in the neck platysmal bands, the injectors tells me to smile, then relax. Then they inject. However today, they asked me to smile, never said relax, and they injected while I was smiling and platysmal bands were flexed. Is this a normal way to inject? Why does it hurt much more now? Will I be okay? What’s the worst that could happens?
