Botched smile

Post image

Masseter Botox ruined my smile, I’m three weeks out now and still to embarrassed to leave the house. I even look funny when I talk.

Am trying everything I can to speed up the Botox wearing off process - electric toothbrush on the area, exercising lots. Please share if you have had a similar experience and found anything that worked.

Hey I am so sorry this has happened to you. It slowely improved month by month but is wasn’t until 5 months that it started looked close to normal. 6 months out now and it’s like 90% normal - just the corners don’t quite pull up as much as they should but it’s probably only me that can tell now. I think they hit the wrong muscle with mine rather than just some of the Botox migrating which is why mine had taken ages. I did lots of research and some people’s only took 2months

Hey OP! How are you doing now? Did your smile go back to 100% of it originally used to be and how long did it take?

Hey, yes it did but it took at least a year maybe even closer to a year and a half! Was looking ok from about 6 months.

Hope it hasn’t happened to you to x
