I had noticed that my chin was looking weird and a slight indent when I smiled. Now 3 weeks later I'm lisping, my lower lip doesn't move and to open my mouth wide to eat a sandwich is nigh impossible, depending on the sandwich. Not to mention the bottom of my chin still looks like an "orange peel".
Answer: Botox for chin It sounds like some of the Botox that was injected has migrated or was injected in the depressor muscle of the lip... not the angle depressor. The effects of Botox will be gone in 3-4 months. As far as the "orange peel" texture of your chin, I would recommend alternative treatment such as laser, or microneedling and PRP. These will provide long lasting and permanent results.

Answer: Botox in the chin The Botox is likely the culprit in what it has done to your lower lip. While Botox for "peau d'orange" is an acceptable treatment, it seems like they either used too much and it migrated to the lip muscles or it was just misplaced in the first place. Fortunately, it will wear off, for sure, but you will have to deal with this for a few months. There isn't a treatment that improves things or makes it wear off any faster.

Answer: Unhappy with Botox/Xeomin/Dysport--Add Venus Legacy This may be due to Botox placement. Botox results will last for 3-4 months. In the mean time, venus legacy treatments will give improvement. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: I went in for Botox about 3 weeks ago: lisp, lower lip movement. It appears you have some lower facial weakness after Botox in the chin area. I suggest you speak with your injector to address your concerns.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

Answer: Adverse muscle effect post Botox. Hello there,Thank you for your question and I'm sorry to hear about your concern. From your explanation, it seems you wanted botox in your chin but it affected your bottom lip, instead of your chin. It seems to me that the botox was injected in an incorrect muscle. Unfortunately, there isn't much that can be done to help the botox wear off faster. Try to apply heat as often as possible and move your bottom lip by puckering it and hopefully the botox will wear off sooner rather than later. I also really recommend returning to your provider and discussing your concerns. Hope this helps.All the best,Carlos Mata, MD, MBA, FACSBoard-Certified Plastic Surgeon
