40 Units of Botox didn't work?

November 6, 2013
Asked By:PowerPak in Seattle

I had 40 units of Botox injected for my 11s. 6 Days later its not working at all. I still have full movement. I'm a man in my 40s with a large build and I exercise a fair amount and eat healthy. Is this common? Did I receive enough Botox? What can I do now? What is recommended?
