Im getting married this year and will be going back right before. My forehead is great and the crack in my forehead is gone.None of my friends have noticed that Ive gotten work done. But I do get compliments on how youg I look
You likely had crow's feet before receiving Botox. What often happens is that after treating one area with Botox and that area improves, other lines appear more pronounced. Botox is great for softening the crow's feet and, in experienced hands, a very safe and effective treatment. (This answer is not intended nor implied to be a substitute for medical advice.

The areas you are pointing to may be the points of entry of the needle used in the injections, but the actual injection of Botox would have been most likely some distance from those needle entry points. There are different ways of injecting and this second person appears to inject a little differently from your other injector. So you may not have any problems at all with your smile. I suggest waiting a couple weeks to see the full effects and return to your injector for evaluation if there are any problems.

Yes, the muslces in this area (corrugators) are very strong in your case and men tend to have strong muscles in this area. You will need continuing treatments over time, meaning it will not be a one time fix. I suggest you see an experienced injector (dermatologist, plastic surgeon) in your area.

You likely did not undo the effects of the IPL treatment, but what you are describing sounds unusual for IPL - massive swelling and horrible bruising. I agree with other responses here too that you should not be taking random doses of prednisone that is lying around. The reaction on your neck and chest sounds unusual too. You should return to be evaluated by the provider who performed the IPL and also inform him/her about the prednisone. (This answer is not intended nor implied to be a substitute for medical advice.

Radiesse is not known to cause serious diseases or cancer. It is an FDA-approved filler material, and is made up of calcium hydroxyapetite which is very similar to a constituent found in bone. Injecting Radiesse into the nose is an off-label indication. If you've never had any filler injections, you may want to consider a hyaluronic acid filler, which, if you do not like the results, can be dissolved with an enzyme, hyaluronidase. I suggest you seek out an experienced injector and discuss these different options. (This answer is not intended nor implied to be a substitute for medical advice.
