Hyperactive mentalis muscle.How many Botox treatments will I do a year for treatment of its appearance?Is surgery a safe option?

Asked By:lovebeautymusic in San Francisco, CA

Would visible, post-surgical scar tissue problems be a very prominent concern after surgically altering this muscle to prevent its unsightly contractions? Would Botox be a monthly thing or how far are the appointments usually spread out for hyperactive mentalis applications? I've also heard that over time, Botox weakens muscles; is this true? And would that mean that the need for regular injections would eventually be phased out after a long enough period of treatment? Thank you for your time
