I cannot smile after Botox to upper lip for smokers lines? (Photos)

Botox to the peri oral area can absolutely cause a strange sensation when eating, smiling, talking or whistling.  The good news is is that it only lasts 4-6 weeks! 

Botox results take up to 1-2 weeks and last up to 3-4 months in new areas of treatment. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Dr. Emer

Thank you very much
for your question and photographs. It is unfortunate that you are unhappy with
the results from your Botox procedure. The issues you are experiencing are temporary
and usually dissipate in a few weeks. However, it can take three to four months
for the full effects of treatment to dissipate. I recommend that you contact
your provider with these concerns. Only put your trust in a board certified,
experienced Botox provider. He/she can recommend the best course of action for
your situation.

Botox typically last between 3 and 4 months, so worst case you may have symptoms (albeit reduced) from a similar period of time. If you remain displeased, visit with a second board certified plastic sugen

Botox in the upper lip usually will interfere with lip function to a certain degree. It needs to be fine tuned to achieve the appropriate response. There are several option treatments for smokers lines like fillers or laser resurfacing. It is important to talk with the injector to explain your issues, this will help you get optimal results next time. Unfortunately, now the best option is to wait for the botox to wear off.
