Bump After Botox? I got botox Between my brows 3 weeks ago and have this linear bump going from the inside of my left brow up.

Asked By:Kirsten2 in Cincinnati, OH

I got botox Between my brows almost 3 weeks ago and I have this linear bump going from the inside of my left brow up my forehead. It's gotten smaller and less sore, but it's still there and still quite large. What could have caused it? I've had Botox 5 other times by someone else and that never happened. Since the bump is right outside my frown line, it's making the line a lot more visible.
