Hi all, My mental is muscle is very pronounced and it's uneven plus asymmetrical . I suffer from TMJ which causes the lip incompatance. Would Botox really remedy my issue? I would like something a bit more permanent but cannot see an implant working as the muscle is so large and uneven. At suggestions would be appreciated.
