Is there any alternative to Botox to smooth or help eliminate forehead lines? I was recently diagnosed with a neuromuscular disease & my Neuro said absolutely no botox. I asked if any other skin or wrinkle treatment were also to be avoided and he said that I only need to avoid Neuromodulator/Neurotoxin injections. I know it seems petty but I still want to feel pretty and like my old self amongst my dx. What else can I do? Pls help.
Hi, as you can see on the pictures, my nose looks totally normal on repose, but when I smile, there is this bump/fold (skin or muscle?) that pops out on both sides of my nose, and it looks white and unsightly. Is there any way to make this go away, e.g. with botox? And if so, exactly where should it be administered - and are there any risks? Thank you!
Hi, 3 months ago I had my second Botox treatment for bruxism. 4 weeks after I went back to evaluate, and the doctor added some more. The same night I noticed the left corner of my mouth was frozen, and since then I have not been able to curve the corner of my mouth when I smile. My doctor said the Botox probably migrated to the risorius muscle, but that it is weird that I saw an effect on my smile the same day. Does this mean something else is causing the crooked smile, such as a damaged nerv?
Its this vertical line or bulge on the side of my nose. Mostly noticeable when Im smiling. Its always been there a little, but seems to be deepening with age, and gets more noticeable when Im tired. The closest I can find online is bunny lines - but it doesnt seem to be the same thing since its a vertical line, and only on one side. Ive been using an electrocurrent erase setting to relax the muscle, but not really noticing results. What *is* this and how can I lessen it?
I have always had hooded eyelids, like Kathleen Turner. Since getting glabella Botox, my eyelids have lost the hooding. My injector has tried the trick of putting a unit over the peak of my brows, which only helps a little. I'm in my 60s. Is there a way to get Botox and maintain natural eyelid hooding?
I had masseter Botox done about a month and a half ago. And although I really like the results, I cannot smile like I used to. My smile now does not turn upwards and is very contrived and restricted. I also had small amounts of fillers on the marionette area just below my lip corners, and along the nasolabial folds. Can you please advise if a DOA Botox injection will help or on the corner of the lips area? The last picture is when I did not get anything done for reference and comparison. Thank you.
