I just got my jawline Botox done 5 days ago. After the procedure, my jaw did felt a little slight soreness which is quite common for all and it subsided after an hour or so. Also, I did not hear this from my Dr. but his assistant told me that as time goes by; maybe in a month time, I will start to feel weaker/strength-less in my jaw muscles. E.g.

Thank you for your question Alan2248. I am sorry to hear about your
