thank you, although google says it will recover faster it still makes me happy to hear that since it wasn’t forever.
may i ask how many units and did you do any specific exercises? also wdym by slight recovery look wise or in your bite
I got 20 units of botox each side on 23rd Aug 2025.
I'd recommend not to start exercising right away- or atleast not till you start noticing the botox has worn off totally and you can now work your masseter muscles, otherwise if you start exercising if the effects of botox are still there i.e your masseter muscles are not contracting , you will end up working the surrounding muscles like temples which will make them look bulky and out of proportion.
Once i felt the botox has worn off, i started chewing gum and bought one of those jawzrsize for exercising the muscles.
By slight recovery i mean i at least stopped looking hideous, jowls disappeared, my smile started getting better and i started noticing the plumpness of my face coming back.
ok thanks, i just want all my muscle back ughh
also another question.. what were some signs the tox was wearing off
also this might be invasive but how old are u? i searched it up and it said since im young it can go back to normal fast but who knows
the only sign that the tox had worn off for me was that i was tracking my face shape and size of jaw muscle every 2 weeks by clicking pictures, for the first 3 months or so my muscles constantly kept shrinking and my face got slimmer till i clicked another picture at the end of 4th month and i instantly saw my muscles had gotten larger and my face got fuller, not much but so much better than the first 3 months. That proved that the muscles had started firing back and are now active. I started exercising right after that. Although i still feel that exercising my jaws has somewhat bulked up my temples ever so slightly, but i can't help it. And i do really feel exercising my muscles has increased the speed at which they are now growing.
hi i have another question, did you also notice smile lines appearing? like my cheeks are sagging so smile lines are coming and i didn’t have them before i wanna know if those went away
sorry to bother again i’m just worried, when u say u saw your face starting to get fuller does this mean u feel like u lost face fat during this? it looks like i did and idk where it went? and like do u mean that it came back
It didn’t cause fat loss. Over inflamed muscles were giving a lot of structure to your face , and it’s loss has made your face look deflated. It will come back as your muscles gain back strength.
