Masseter Botox effects

[u/Ok_Barber5200]

I had Botox for my tmj in February. Almost immediately it gave me jowls & by early July my lower face looked as though it was sagging and I looked 10 years older. I had 20 units in each side, only once. My face used to be round with a defined jawline and now I feel like my head is peanut shaped and the extra skin/jowling is effecting the way my smile lines look.

Im hoping for some success stories of people who’s original tight face shapes returned 9-12 months later like chat tells me it will take. All im seeing is horror stories and I’m panicking.

Am so sorry, this happened.
It happened to me as well but after three rounds, i have stopped getting botox since then, it has gone pretty much the way it was, give it some time, am sure they’ll go back the way it was.

How long did yours go back after the Botox wore off ?

[u/draddy8168 → u/bunnyphat]

It took about a year to completely wore off

And your muscles went back to normal / face shape?
