I had Botox in the lower eye area and it caused me to have bags and now I have to wait at least 4-5 months for this poison to dissolve out of my system !. Please never have this stuff injected into the under eye area, I look like I am older and have drooping eye bags. I spent alot of money and got this in return !. You must voice your opinions to your doctor and DEMAND not to be billed for further consultations, and you have paid for a procedure that failed, and you are not legally required to pay for something that has not worked, think about it, if you buy an appliance and it doesn't work, do you get charged for another one, or to have it fixed ???. Beware of hype and lies, they get you in take you money and make excuses later.

I am still waiting for the bags to resolve after 4 months !, Botox bad effects can last up to 6 months as the poison slowly drains from your body and the muscle that blocks goes back to normal
Great review?

Yeah, it does last longer in some people...who are fortunate when they like the results, but much less fortunate when they experience something like you are. :-/ At least being at 4 months you know it should start wearing off sooner rather than later.

So sorry to hear you experienced eye bags from your botox too. I had the same thing happen. Mine wasn't awful, but definitely noticeable when I smiled, so I fully sympathize. I do think Botox can be a good thing, I just wouldn't ever want it put under my eyes again.

Also, this forum might interest you if you are looking for ways to speed up getting rid of the Botox.
