Difficult to give you a definitive answer not knowing exactly what was injected. Assuming you did receive Botox (Allergan), was it the first time you received a botulinum treatment? Results vary with amounts used or dose, injector proficiency and location. Larger doses with higher volumes can migrate. I usually have patients excercise the muscles injected for at least 2 hours post-injection to increase efficiency of up take and have them refrain from excercise or massage for the rest of the day.
Results of Botox vary between patients but may last for 4 months.
I recommend, if you are unable to see your injecting physician, to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with significant experience in Botox injections for an evaulation as he or she may be able to "fix" areas of concern by injecting other muscle systems to counter act what you are seeing.
I hope this helps!
