Hi Frozen. I have heard botox wears off faster when you exercise and drink lots of water. I also read this post about this lady and how hers wore off fast...
Hi "frozen" I am doing much better. It has been 43 days since my injections, and I think it is closer to being worn off. But I also took a 2 week liver cleanse that had milk thistle in it, and I sit in the steam shower at least once a day sometimes more. I have been drinking TONS of water as well.
My right eye still has a bag, and the left eye bag is almost gone, but the lid is slightly lower still on my left eye (that showed up around day 8) and that eye is constantly dry. Almost all of my forehead wrinkles are back except right above the glabella. This was my first and LAST experience with Botox.
I went to 2 different doctors about the reaction and they both said that was not a reaction from the botox. But after researching the internet I have found that people with heavy/ higher foreheads (like myself) have had the eye bags. Apparently it has something to do with the weight of the forehead.
I saw your post and read about the anxiety, I have also had anxiety. Just remember that it is temporary and it will go away. That's what I keep telling myself. Let me know how you are doing!
