After Botox injection one eye brown is higher then other. Can it be fixed? I don't want wait 6 month. Thanks
Answer: Timing of touch-ups after Botox injection Typically Botox will take 1-2 weeks to take full effect. At that time if there is any brow asymmetry it is an excellent time to get a "touch-up". A couple of units of Botox can be used to symmetrize the brows.

Answer: Botox Thank you for your question.Using a small amount of botox can help your brow. I suggest seeing the provider who performed your injections for a follow-up appointment to discuss your concerns and possible touch up injection. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment.I hope this helps.

Answer: Botox Injections and Brow Asymmetry This can easily be fixed by a little more botox being injected to the brow that is elevated. I suggest speaking to a cosmetic dermatologist with experience or going back to your physician for a touch up. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: BOTOX ISSUE Yes this can be fixed and you need to call your doctor who did the Botox and have them correct it. It should not be an issue and sometimes this happens. There is no need to wait the 6 months to fix this .

Answer: Touchups usually correct/ soften undesired effects It would be helpful to see your before pictures and to know where you had your botox injections. I agree that it looks like you may have a ptosis of the left eyelid and an elevation of your left eyebrow. Ptosis occurs when the eyelid muscle does not elevate properly, and the forehead compensates by pulling the eyebrow (and eyelid) up. You may have had a less exaggerated ptosis prior to your treatment, and the treatment may have exacerbated it. I think this issue can be treated/softened:1) weaken the obicularis on your right side (the obicularis pulls down on the eyebrow)2) weaken the forehead on your left side (the forehead elevates the eyebrow) - must be very careful with this strategy, since it may make your lowered left eyelid even lower, which would be undesirable3) trial of brominidine drops on the left - this will help to elevate your left eyelid, but won't necessarily change the position of your browAlso, be reassured that all the effects will likely wear away in several weeks to months.
