Approximately one month ago I had 30 units of Botox injected into my glabellar lines,and forehead area due to my frowning/lines. After 1 month I did not notice any changes and was still frowning. On my return/follow up visit she then injected me with 100 units of xeomin. I worried now if this was safe and the right thing for her to do. I questioned her several times about it and was told that it would be fine. I am also worried about the side effects of so much toxin in one session.
