Pain After Botox for Several Days

July 18, 2010
Asked By:Tati_ana in Saratoga Springs, NY

I got Botox injections between my eyebrows 3 days ago. My firehead sores a lot! I can't touch the area where i got injections. I can't wash my face without pain at that area and I can't apply cream there! Is it a side effect? Or unprofessional doctor? or bad quality of Botox itself?...
