I normally get spock-eye results after Botox treatment. When I get a 'touch-up' to correct the spock eye, my eyelid sags so much I could hardly see. I tried another doctor and instead of more botox, they did a feathering kind of manipulation to the skin around my brow after injection. What is this method called?

Answer: "Spocking" Hello, and thanks for your question. This is one of the trickier aspects of injecting Botox. Not enough Botox to the side of your forehead and you run the risk of "spocking." With too much, you run the risk of dropping your brow. To maximize the likelihood of a favorable outcome, I recommend that you only get treated by a well-trained and experienced dermatologist or plastic surgeon. Hope this opinion is helpful to you. Best of luck, Dr. Frucht.

Answer: Botox A small amount of Botox can be added in and around the muscle that is causing this contraction and raising of the brow. Usually this is in the outside aspect of the forehead.
