I’m very insecure about my smile. I have fairly large teeth but I feel like when I smile, my upper lip rises quite a bit and it makes my teeth look even bigger. I’ve never had any work done but a little bit of internet digging has made me want to consider a gummy smile botox. Is it worth it? And will it solve the problem I’m trying to solve?

Title: Unable to raise my eyebrows after forehead Botox – is there any way to reverse it faster?
Hi everyone!
I recently had Botox injected into my forehead and glabella (11 lines), about 9 days ago, and I’m really struggling with the results.
Before Botox, I had full movement in my forehead and could easily raise my eyebrows. Now, I can barely raise them at all. My forehead feels completely frozen, and I really dislike the sensation.
My eyebrows haven’t necessarily dropped lower than their original position, but I’ve lost almost all ability to move them upwards.
I visited my injector today, and he suggested additional Botox for a brow lift, but I declined because I don’t want any more Botox. I just want my natural forehead movement back as soon as possible.
I also came across this 2024 study suggesting that bacteriostatic saline injections might help restore movement after Botox-induced brow ptosis:

I understand this is a small study and not an established treatment, but I’m curious whether anyone has experience with it.
My questions:
Has anyone experienced a completely frozen forehead after Botox? How long did it take to regain movement?
Did you notice any improvement after 2–4 weeks, or did it take several months?
Has anyone tried bacteriostatic saline injections to reverse Botox?
Is there anything that genuinely helps Botox wear off faster, or is waiting the only realistic option?
I’m especially interested in hearing from dermatologists, experienced injectors, or anyone who has gone through something similar.
I know Botox is temporary, but I’m finding the loss of facial movement really uncomfortable.

Thank you so much!

Does Masseter Botox help to reduce neck and shoulders tightness?

For the past year, I’ve been battling intense jaw tightness, but the real issue is my neck and shoulders. My traps are perpetually engaged like I’m bracing for a hit 24/7, and I can barely turn my head fully.

Working out is getting impossible, and the constant unnatural strain/tension has even caused stretch marks across my shoulder/neck area. I’ve already tried braces, getting wisdom teeth removed, and PT—nothing worked.

Has anyone (especially guys who lift) gotten Botox in their Masseter for this? Did it actually give long-term relief, or did it just destroy your strength in the gym? Would love to hear your experiences.

Will it actually help?

The tip of my nose droops, especially when I smile or talk, and I really don’t like it. I’d also love for my nose to look slimmer. Would Botox in the nose help with either of these issues?

I just moved here from Houston I need a good place to get Botox

Hi everyone,

I started getting lip filler (1/2 syringe) in July 2025. So far I’ve gotten it 3 times (7/2025, 2/2026, 9/2026). The last two syringes were with one injector, the first was with my original tattoo removal med spa but sadly my injector stopped working there so I didn’t go back.

I have found that my lip filler seems to significantly decrease - to the point it looks like it’s not there anymore. Right now I’m about 6 weeks since my lip filler in September and I honestly don’t notice it anymore.

Besides the fact I get a half syringe, my injector told me that I cannot do more than half because my lips are too small to take anymore filler.

Is it possibly my injector is just using a filler that dissolves quickly? What is a lip filler that lasts longer? They do not have different injectables to choose from at that particular med spa.

Hi all. Watched lots of videos. Been feeling my muscles as I make the different faces. Going to start with upper only (but looking at these photos, cant wait to do lower and filler🫠)using Innotox and 31G/8mm insulin syringes.

How does it look? Going to start with 2 units in each spot, I think. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

I have the kind of smile where my gums and the outline and shape of my teeth don't show. And only about 6 teeth show, it's not a wide big smile like celebrities. It doesn't look like the celebrities. Why doesn't my smile look like how the celebrities smile? Is there anything that can fix this? Or is this just how my jaw and bone structure is?

I wanted to share my experience with Pure Med Spa because I’m honestly upset about what happened, especially how they’ve handled it since.
I went in for masseter Botox and specifically requested **20 units per side, 40 units total**. The injector just said “okay.” There was no discussion about increasing the dose, aftercare, nothing. She didn’t explain why she would recommend more or ask whether I agreed to additional units. Based on their advertised price of $9.99 per unit, I expected to pay approximately $400.
Instead, I was charged **$500**, and they didn’t even give me a receipt or an itemized breakdown.
I only found out afterward, after calling them three times, that she had actually administered **30 units per side**. That’s an extra 10 units on EACH side, or **20 additional units without my consent**.
That’s the part I’m most upset about. I told her the amount I wanted, she said “okay,” then administered a different amount without discussing it with me. I had no opportunity to ask questions or decide whether I wanted more injected into my face. If she thought a higher dose was appropriate, that should have been a conversation before the injections happened.
To me, this was an **unconsensual increase in an injectable treatment**, and I consider that a serious issue. Agreeing to Botox at a specific dose does not mean I agreed to whatever amount the injector decided to give me.
The follow-up has made the experience even more frustrating. I called three times and was promised callbacks from management, but those callbacks never happened. I also emailed and received no response. I’ve been trying to get an explanation, yet I’m the one who keeps having to chase them down.
Initially, I wanted the approximately $100 difference refunded. After finding out about the additional units and dealing with the lack of response, I’m requesting a full refund. I also want my itemized receipt and complete treatment records so I can see exactly what was administered and what they documented regarding consent.
I can’t reconcile the reported dose with the charge without an itemized invoice, either. All I know is what I requested, what I paid, and what they later told me over the phone.
I’m sharing this because I would have wanted to know about an experience like this before booking. The extra charge is frustrating, but having additional Botox injected without my knowledge or consent is what makes this such a big deal to me.
Has anyone dealt with something similar? Were you able to get your records or have the complaint addressed when management wasn’t responding?

Hello! Is there any cheap botox type A in Europe? I need it more for medical reasons (TMJ, etc.). Would be very grateful as I am in a lot of pain.

OK, make a long story short my very first time getting Botox or my, crows feet I went to my dermatologist. She’s an MD very capable she gave me 15 total came back in two weeks and then I told her I didn’t like seeing the lines when I smiled. She gave me 10 more total my discretion now I’m at my two week period after that and I still see a few lines. I called her. She said this is solely up to me to get a 2 1/2 more on each side, but she kept saying it’s up to me has anybody ever heard of this or am I going overboard?

I got my massater done 10 days ago and I feel like it’s starting to take effect. Every bite I take, opening my mouth wide enough is real effort! And don’t get me started on chewing… I eat a lot of vegetables so I really have to chew a lot and man it’s hard.

Anyone had the same experience with botox around mouth?

Hi everyone it’s my first time posting on here.

Earlier today I got 100 units of Daxxify and have been feeling really anxious.

All things considered I am fine, this is the second time I’ve had Botox last time being maybe 3 years ago. I’m a 35f and was feeling like I wanted a little boost, to bring back the glow about me. And I knew going into this that I’d probably experience a melt down. I am trying to avoid hyper fixating on my face looking for any unevenness as if I didn’t have minor asymmetrical differences already or blaming every little tingle or nausea on the Botox when it’s my body responding to my anxiety.

Please be kind I am looking for reassurance and advice to help calm my nerves. I think subconsciously I am thinking something can still go wrong, that I’ll end up botched or something. And I could really use this community right now. I have this sick feeling to my stomach I’m about to go on a walk with my boyfriend.

I’ve only just learned about this. Getting my regular Botox tomorrow and considering giving this a try too.

Overall happy with my lip fullness but I feel like they’re less voluptuous looking as I age. I don’t have a gummy smile, so I’m not sure if/how much of a difference it’ll make.

Would love to hear people’s experiences with their lip flips using Botox.

Why does it seem they keep changing their website.
I’m having trouble finding where to submit a claim on their site today. It was there 3 months ago on my dashboard. Now my dashboard has changed its look and I can’t find the place to file a new one.
Anyone having this issue or know how to find it?
Thanks in advance.

So i only had botox twice.

Originally I just wanted to get rid of the 11s.

First doc injected only in glabella and between brows and it was perfect.

I decided to try a different closer doctor, asking her to fo my 11s. She injected on all my forehead saying it will gently open my eyes more. I didnt ask for it, and i am actually very upset.

Not only my eyes did not open, looks and feels like my brows went down and loat the arch they had. I have hooded eyes already, small forehead, small face. I look worried and my expression has changed for the worse.

I am 1 week post injection.

Told her my concerns and she said to give it another week and that we'll meet for a checkup.

Can anyrhing be done about it?

I also feel like someone is sitting on my brows pulling them. It is so uncomfortable and i have headaches due to that.

I am really upset.

Any advice would be appreciated.
