How long will Botox last in chin?

Question

I got botox in my mentalis muscle in chin but I don't like it. It looks bigger now and I already have a long face. I'm not sure how many units she put in my chin but she put 20 in my jawline,DAO, and chin all combined so I'm guessing it wasnt that much. she told me botox around the mouth doesn't last very long only 6 weeks (she said to be honest its a waist of money) but I see other doctors on here saying it lasts the regular amount of time (3-4 months). please help thanks

The effect of Botox lasts 3-4 months, and during this time the muscle will be relaxed and become slimmer.  The strength of the muscles treated, patient's physiology, and the dosage of Botox used can all factor into the time a treatment lasts.

If you'd like to see if you can extend the time between treatments you can try increasing the dosage slightly, or trying Dysport.

Botox results can be seen typically between 1-2 weeks and results last 2-4 months. Please see a board certified dermatologist for treatment. Best, Dr. Emer

Botox should last 3-4 months. You had 20 units placed in multiple areas and could have received a small dose to your chin. Worst case scenario the effect will be resolved by 3-4 months. Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Botox typically lasts 3-4 months.  Sometimes if the dosing was very minimal it can last less than 3-4 months.  Regardless Botox will always wear off and your face will return to how it looked originally.
