One side of my face has deeper naseolabial fold becuase when I talk, yawn, sing, anything - that side lifts up alot more. The muscle next to the nose on that side is particularly strong. Can botox be put in there to relax that muscle a little bit, and stop the over-deepening of that side's naseolabial fold?
Answer: Botox Strategic placement of Botox in the mid face muscles with either insertion or attachments to the nasal skeleton can affect the function of these muscles and as such the appearance of the nose particularly on the dynamic repose. Some of the most common applications of this technique include targeting the tip depressor muscle which minimizes the "elongated and pulled down" effect of smiling on the nasal tip and also targeting the dilator muscles of the nostrils to minimize "excessive flare" seen with animation.

Answer: Can Botox Relax Overactive Nose Muscle? Botox Can Stop Muscle From Lifting If one side of your face is lifting higher owing to an overactive muscle, a neuromodulator such as Botox, Dysport or Xeomin can relax it. This will make your face look more symmetrical when you talk, yawn and sing. If that's the muscle responsible for the nasolabial fold, it should smooth out, too. If not, you can even it out with a hyaluronic-acid based filler such as Juvederm, Beletero or Restylane. Please consult a board-certified dermatologist to find out if you are a candidate for Botox and/or filler.

Answer: Botox for facial muscles Hello,Generally speaking, Botox and Dysport are good options for what you are describing; however, much is contingent on what your injector is observing in the treatment room to determine if this is the safest and most effective way to address your concern. Meticulous dosing and placement is a must when working in the lower face area.Besides Botox and Dsyport, using a dermal filler may detract from what you are observing. Make certain your injector understands your concerns and that you both share a mutual treatment goal.
