Will movement begin returning before 3 months post botox injection?

Asked By:lazarus83 in Turlock, CA

Hi, I had a lower dose of botox injected that weakened the muscles, but did not paralyze them (to help with bruxism) The Dr told me I'd probably want more botox before 3 months. Does function begin returning before the 3 month mark? Thank you!
