I had Botox about just about 8 days ago and I have small pimple like spots in the injection site. The nurse likes to use a fresh needle for each injection site so used about 6 needles and all were sterile and in packaging. There was no cross contamination. I've been applying witch hazel to these spots but why have I reacted like this? Incidentally I'm very pleased with the result. This was the first time I've had Botox I'm just a bit miffed about having these red pimples. Thanks for any advice

Thank you for your question. The frown lines between the brows can be address two different ways:
1) Botox or Dysport can be used to soften the deepening of the frown lines when making a frown expression. The treatment may even soften the lines that are present at rest. The effects...
If Botox dripped in one eye, both eyes probably would not itch if the botox caused it. You may have another cause of the itching. See an eye doctor or allergist.
