My brow and eyelids feel heavy (looks fine) but I do have bags under my eyes especially when smiling. 2 days ago I got Botox to my "11s", this is my 1st experience and I feel 'heaviness' and an odd sensation in my brow and eyes and some tingling sinus pain. I feel like I'm having to work harder to look around. So far I don't see any improvement to my wrinkles, but I know this takes time. I am however really paranoid about the botox travelling and am worried that I might be experiencing this - though I went to an experienced cosmetic doctor and followed all aftercare advice religiously.
Answer: Muscle relaxing treatment Dear Sarah, The first time you have a botox treatment it can feel very odd. You may experience a heavy feeling and a possible headache. Generally this will settle over the next few days. You will naturally still be trying to frown and it can feel very strange when you can no longer do this. At around two weeks this should be fully settled. There is a small risk of eyebrow heaviness or drooping of the eye if the toxin migrates into a nearby muscle. If you do experience this it normally only lasts a couple of weeks. If you are still concerned at two weeks you should speak to your doctor. All the best

Answer: Botox Sometimes you can feel a little "different" after your first Botox experience, since this is the first time you are feeling the effects. However, if you are really concerned about the side effects, I would call your doctor or make an appointment to discuss your issues. Good luck

Answer: Heaviness feeling after Botox Hello, Many thanks for your question. It can feel very strange after your first set of Botox injection. Many people get a heaviness or even a headache. You are getting used to not using a certain set of muscles. It takes 14 days for the full effects to be seen after having Botox. If you are concerned after this I would see your injector or if symptoms worsen or further worrying signs develop I would go back back earlier.
