Can Botox Injections Leave Residue on Skin? Is This Risky?

Can Botox injections leave residue on skin, and can this be ingested accidentally (ie hands or showering)? How many units of Botox ingested are toxic?
A: Botox does not leave a residue

There is no residue from Botox injections.  Medical grade botox, used in appropriate amounts, does not produce toxicity.  If you are implying that someone might "ingest" or eat Botox, that would be completely inappropriate.

Does It Take Months for Botox to Correct the Brow Furrow?

I received my first treatment of Botox 6 weeks ago. The doctor said that I only needed 16 units as my brow furrow wasn't that bad. After 2 weeks I still had alot of movement and the crease was still there. Today is 6 weeks since my first treatment and I have been back twice since my first treatment because I still have a crese! She told me today that it could take months for the crease to slowly fill back in! She is'nt charging me but I am wondering if I am wasting my time with weak Botox.
A: Botox to fill in crease Botox typically works within 72 hours. If injected properly, your brow should not be frozen because that's completely unnatural. Botox does not fill in creases; it works by paralyzing the muscle. It is possible that what you need is a combination of Botox and a facial filler such as Radiesse or Restylane. It's impossible to evaluate whether the Botox is "weak" or over diluted or whether it is not the treatment of choice for your condition. I would recommend that you see a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon in consultation.

How Long Does Botox Take to Work?

I am 24. My frown lines are very deep especially for my age. I had botox twice. I am not able to frown, however, I have not seen a difference in my frown lines. My dermatologist did not want to give me more than 20 units. Do I just need more Botox or another treatment? I have had the lines Since I was 22.
A: Botox Botox begins to work immediately and takes about 72 hours to reach significant efficacy. If you are unable to frown, this would indicate to me that the Botox is working. Twenty units is a low amount so it is possible that you might need more product. Without a photograph, it is impossible to evaluate whether Botox was the appropriate treatment for the frown lines as opposed to facial filler.
