Lopodine and time are your allies

David A. Robinson, MD answers: Raised eyebrows and drooping lid after Botox

One week after my Botox injections, I started to have raised eye brows and drooping eyelids. What can I do to make them look normal again? I am currently using Iopidine eye drops.

Dear Shara,

It sounds like some of the Botox migrated to the muscles that effect your upper eyelid.  Lopodine may help but it may take some time (a few weeks) until you begin to see results. As the Botox begins to wear off, you will also notice an improvement. In these instances, I recommend patience and not doing anything drastic. You should not have any long lasting effects.
