I went to doc to get my 11s, forehead area, and crows feet relaxed with botox. I assumed this meant no movement. I understand there may be etched in wrinkles but I am still Abel to frown. I have been to derm for followup and they injected more. It's been a week and it's not much better. Should I request they touch up again? Is it standard practice to touch up until treatment has acheived desired look?
Answer: Botox Great question. Looking at the picture the line appear pretty deep. So if the other areas: forehead and crow's feet are totally relaxed, it tells you that the injector is most likely doing good job for you and its just the glabellar area that is slow to respond or the muscle is just strong and needs more dose. If the muscle action is gone and wrinkles still bother then you will need fillers to help that area.

Answer: 11s after botox Great question. If you still have deep lines in the glabella (forehead) after an appropriate amount of botox injection, then most likely you had these present at rest. This means that the lines are too deep and you require addition of hyaluronic acid fillers in the area such as juvederm. Best of luck

Answer: Improving deep wrinkles--Botox/Xeomin/Dysport, fillers, lasers, microneedling/prp It can take 1-2 weeks for final results with Botox. Deeper wrinkles would need additional Botox, lasers, microneedling/prp and fillers to get improvement. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Botox Hello and thank you for your question. The best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation. You may require additional botox. It depends on how many units were injected the first time. I recommend that you follow-up with your surgeon and share your concerns. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G.

Answer: How much BOTOX? Hi,Your question does not indicate how many units of BOTOX you have received. It may be that you need more. Our goal is not to freeze the forehead as seen in some celebrities, you should still look expressive but the muscles that cause the 11s should not allow those wrinkles when you frown. Every patient is different. We have patients who need 20 units between the brows and others who need 40 or more. If the creases are there when you do not frown, you may need filler to reduce them. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon for an opinion and treatment. Good luck.
