Botox on my chin ruined my smile. very lopsided. I also notice when I smile my neck muscles are prominent, is this due to the botox? Two cords stick out. Also would chin botox cause the top lip to snarl on one side? Its been 4 and a half months already, and although relaxed a lot from initial injection, when should it go away?
