I got botox on 1st April this year (2010) for my forehead lines. The Doctor also injected in between and around my eyebrows. Well immediately afterwards I noticed my eyebrows had drooped. They now cover most of my entire eyelid. I cannot apply eye makeup now. I've had botox before and this didn't happen. I think less botox was used then.
