Botox cheek droop. Is it permanent?

Hello, Thank you fro your question. Botox results are temporary and can last 3 up to 6 months. Your results should improve with time. All the best. 

Thank you for your question. So sorry to hear about your experience. Botox effects are not permenant and will subside at approx. 3 months. Take care, 

I am sorry to learn that you did not have a favorable outcome after your Botox injections. The good news is that these effects are not permanent and would be expected to improve very soon. I would discuss your concerns with your injector so as to avoid this issue in the future.

The effect of the botox should be temporary but it can take up to a few months for the botox effects to fully go away.

unfortunately if you have muscle weakness from botox this will take 3 months to improve and will slowly return.  Have patience and go to a different injector in the future.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Good or bad, the effects of botox are temporary, and will typically disappear in 3-4 months time.  Your droop seems to be an appropriate duration, so I would suggest you wait another month or two, at most.  If it does not seem to be improving in that timeframe, I'd recommend you consult a neurologist for further evaluation.

Botox injections are an excellent option for treatment of the lateral canthal lines or crows feet.  A potential complication of these injections is diffusion or injection into the zygomatic muscles which aid in elevation of the lip and are a major component of smiling.  The most common cause is injections that are carried out farther away from the orbit or Botox that is more dilute.  This effect will abate over time; however, may take several months depending on the dosage used.  Continue to use the muscles and express, and all should return to normal over the next few weeks.

None of the side effects of Botox is permanent. If any unexpected relaxation of a muscle occurs after Botox
treatment, it is likely cause by a slight migration of the Botox (after rubbing
the area, for example) or because of some technical issues at the time of the
injection. These side effects should clear in 6 to 8 weeks (but may last up o
12 weeks).

Thank you for your question.Sorry to read that you had an adverse effect from facial cosmetic Botox injection. The good news is that the undesired effect will go away in 3-4 months.BestDr Karamanoukian

Thank you for your question. The good news is if the Botox causes the cheeks to droop this condition is not permanent. Depending on the amount of Botox injected it should go away in approximately 2 to 3 months. I hope you find this information useful.
