Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.

As of now, it does not represent any serious neurological disease. However, please watch for any facial asymmetry, deviation of angle of mouth to one side, inability to frown on one side, or blow your cheeks, which could mean a facial palsy.
If the above symptoms do not appear, then, there is no need to worry. If you notice any of them, please consult a neurologist for evaluation.

I hope it helps.
Please get back if you require any additional information.

Best wishes,
