Smile is ruined from Botox! What went wrong? (photos)

mrc3121
I saw a different Dr for Botox who recommended 2.5 units on each side of my nose for my gummy smile and also put 5-8 (?)units Botox in my chin (placed at two points side by side about mid chin). He also topped up Botox around my eyes. I wouldn't say I used to love my smile, but I didn't hate it. Now I hate it!! I'm so self conscious. It's crooked, unnatural and I don't feel like me. (I have been getting Botox elsewhere for many years around eyes and frown with no problem). What has gone wrong?
