My Glabella Area Puckers Sometimes on It's Own After 13 Units of Botox, Normal? I am first time user-I received 10 units of botox in my glabella region 6 weeks ago with an improved appearance after 1 week, then 3 more units 2 weeks later. I never noticed any more improvement and after 6 weeks the botox is gone. When I rub the area (it seems to itch more now), it puckers up before my eyes, then relaxes many seconds later. It's weird & creepy. I see my provider again next week but can't afford more right now. She seemed puzzled on the phone so I don't know what to expect.

A: it may be that you need more botox Hello, One of my office staff had this. It was after some light Botox. Time or more Botox are both solutions. Nothing bad is happening. All the best, Dr Repta

Can Corticosteroid Be Injected into a Hyperactive Undereye Muscle for Muscle Twitch? What About Botox? Can corticosteroid be injected into a hyperactive undereye muscle twitch? What about Botox? I am looking for a permanent solution to a permanent problem.

A: Your symptoms are known as blepharospasm and botox is a good solution

Hello,

Injection of steroids is not a good idea as it will have a thinning effect on the surrounding tissue. Botox will helps but it will only be temporary. I would have an experienced injector perform this. Just know that you may have to progressively increase the amount and areas injected until you get the ideal amount of muscle paralysis.

All the best,

Dr Repta
