Botox to the Glabella Caused Under Eye Bags, Is This Normal? What Can I Do? (photo)

I had 8 units of Botox to the upper forehead a week ago. I went back because a still had a few lines above my brows. The doctor said i needed to have my glabella done to support the forehead. So she injected 8 units into the glabella. The next morning my eyes were swollen and I have HUGE bags under my eyes, that were NEVER there before. This was my very first botox experience and I'm worried sick that these bags won't go away. Is this common, is there anything I can do?

A: Botox to the Glabella Caused Under Eye Bags, Is This Normal? What Can I Do?

  Having Botox injected into the Glabella can cause edema (swelling) that would appear as eye bags the next day.  This, IMHO, is quite rare and could be minimized by avoiding the glabellar groove that houses the artery and vein.  Hitting one of these, during the Botox injection, would create additional bruising and swelling.

Is the Orbicularis Oculi Muscle Ever Frozen with Botox Injections?

I read the paragraph below on an Oprah.com article, and was wondering if this muscle is commonly or ever frozen by botox injections? "When someone smiles out of genuine delight, a facial muscle called the orbicularis oculi involuntarily contracts, crinkling the skin around the eyes. Most of us are incapable of deliberately moving this muscle, which means that when a person fakes a smile, her orbicularis oculi likely won't budge."

A: This statement is a classic oversimplification. When we smile we do activate the orbicularis oculi muscle on the top of the cheek. Over treatment with Botox will affect the activity of the orbicularis oculi muscle. In fact over treat with Botox will create a frozen or locked in effect which is aesthetically undesirable. The goal of Botox should be the subtle and favorable adjustment of the balance in facial muscles. This the reason why I introduced Microdroplet Botox. This patented method creates a forehead lift without the paralysis associated with many treatment patterns.

Will Botox for Jawline Lift Also Treat Bruxism?

Will Botox for Jawline Lift Also Treat Bruxism?

A: Botox for bruxism

The injection site for bruxism is a different muscle than for a lift. Bruxism will not be improved unless you are specifically targeting the chewing muscle.
