How to Undo Effect of Botox Massetter Reduction?

457574109
My wife has had two Botox injections recently(one in jan and one in apr - two weeks ago) to reduce her massetter and achieve a slim face. the result is not good. Her zygomaticlooks accentuated, and her face below zygomatic looks Hollow making her look gaunt, while before she had a full and cheery looking face. Also the muscle on her left Zygomatic look buldging. Is there a way to undo the effect? She is now chewinga lot of gums hoping to regain the massetter muscle, would it help? Thanks!
