Botox into the glabella and forehead might make the inner brows feel heavy for sure.  Botox in this location should not affect the position or look of your nose.

I hope this helps.

Typically ear surgery or otoplasty costs about 4000-6000 dollars.  Some of this will depend on the cost of the operating room and anesthesia per hour.  

It does appear that you have had some recurrence of prominence of your ears.  If it has been 3-6 months from surgery, which I think it has, then I would revisit this with your surgeon.  I would typically consider revision about 6 months after the initial surgery if there is recurrence.

I hope this helps,

Thank you for your question.  It is very normal to have swelling a month after TOP surgery.  The final result is usually not seen for at least 6 months after surgery.  I typically tell my patients not to do any heavy lifting or strenuous activity until at least 6 weeks after surgery.  If you stress your chest muscles too much before that, you could end up causing a fluid collection or making the swelling worse.  I have my patients wrap gently with an ace wrap for 6 weeks after surgery to help with swelling.

Best,

In general I wait for about 6 months after the peri approach to allow the nipple and areola to shrink after the breast tissue is removed.  If the nipple is still large, then I go ahead and reduce the nipple size.  In your case, however, there is not a lot of breast tissue so I am not sure your nipple itself would shrink after the breast tissue is removed.  It would be reasonable to make it a bit smaller at the time of the peri approach if you are unhappy with it.  In regards to the actual position of the nipple areolar complex on your chest, it is very hard to predict where it will sit when the breast tissue is removed.  It usually goes straight back onto the chest in the location it was pre surgery.  Hope this helps.
