I had a concussion about 2 months ago.. Today I went into get some botox for my wrinkles on my forehead.. The first injection was on the right side for my face where I had the concussion. I could actually feel the botox being injected ! I could also hear it as it entered.. I have never had that happen. Normally I just feel a little needle prick. I'm a little concerned., is this normal? Thank you so much
Answer: It's common It's very common to hear noises when Botox is being injected. It could be a result of a slightly different technique used by your injector. If you're very concerned, you should go and see the doctor that treated you for the concussion to make sure everything is okay.

Answer: Hearing Hello, yes, this sounds normal. Depending on the region injected and the injector, you can occasionally hear a crunch sound and have differing amounts of sensation. If everything else is normal, I do not feel that you have anything to worry about. Thanks.

Answer: Feeling the botox being injected is ok, not necessarily a cause of concern. Thank you for your question. It is difficult to give you advice without seeing a photo or examining you in person. Feeling the botox being injected is ok, not necessarily a cause of concern. Although, when touch ups are required an injector will assess where Botox is needed and how much and this may require less injections. I recommend waiting 2 weeks to see your final results to determine whether the single injection has worked. You may require more Botox if your wrinkles are present at this time. Best of Luck!

Answer: This is fine Thanks for your question and I am sure you will have nothing to worryabout – if the injector was a skilled injector. Different injectors inject Botox differently and often we tell our patients that you may hear a crunch sound – and if you do, this is fine. The injections are going into the muscles that we are treating so hearing a crunch sometimes is related to the needle going through the muscle fibers.

Answer: Hearing Botox being injected Some patients say they can hear a noise when Botox is injected and hitting the nerves. It's like a swish and a crackle. It's fine. Some people never hear it, some do. It means nothing either way. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion.
