I had Botox injections to the masseters. One injection was between my chin and the corner of my mouth on the right side, unlike the injections on the other side which were in the cheek. 1 month later now, I can not bend down the right mouth corner when i make a sad expression and when i press my lips together, there is a dimple on the right side. Will it recover? Is there anything I can do to help it?

Answer: Botox injections around the mouth It may take months or even up to a year to recover from this. The good news is that you will improve over time. It takes patience and you just have to wait. There is nothing you can do to make it disappear faster, unfortunately but know that overtime things should go back to normal.

Answer: Botox to Mouth The good news is that Botox always wears off and muscle function returns to normal if it was a result of the Botox. Usually the unwanted effects do not last the entire time of the normal treatments. Looking in the mirror and trying to force the normal movements sometimes help things improve a bit. What is important is that you and your injector realize how much was used and exactly where it was placed, so you can avoid a repeat problem.
