Raised eyebrows and drooping lids most common Botox complications

To shara,

Hi. Unfortunately, you have complications that may take 2 months to go away (hopefully less). The good news is, they always go away. The drops are a good idea.

This is why experience and knowledge of anatomy are so important. Botox has to be injected into precisely the correct spots (in general, further away from the eye).

Shara,

It sounds like you had an unfortunate outcome with Botox. Beside the Iopidine drops, which should help lift your lids a few millimeters, there really is not much that you can do. The good thing is that Botox is always temporary. For your raised brows, you can have them inject a small about of Botox (3 units) 1 cm above the lateral brow. Good luck with your recovery.

Botox works to paralyze muscles of animation. Most commonly it is used to treat the frontalis muscle of the forehead to erase wrinkles. Some doctors inject areas under the eyebrow to elevate it. However, it can accidentally cause eyelid drooping to do injection of the orbicularis oculi muscle. This should get better with time as the Botox wears off, and the eye drops should help as well.
