I got Botox for the first time for my crows feet back in Feb 2014 and loved the effect. I returned 3 weeks ago on June 18th to get another dose the injector suggested I may want to soften my forehead lines also. it sounded good so, I did it. My Eyes were always a large round shape. Now they are more slanted smaller towards the inner eye. Also my inner upper eyelid is extremely puffy, and my eyebrows are extremely high. Feel horrible and ugly Please help how to fix it I used Opcon A - no help

Answer: Dropped brows from forehead Botox This is the most common complaint I hear about from Botox injections. It can easily be avoiding by injecting the frontalis muscle that creates forehead furrows until after treating the glabellar complex that creates frown lines, and keeping the injectors in the corrugators and procerus muscle low. If a patient has significant blepharochalasis (low-hanging and lax upper eyelids) prior to treatment, it might be best to not treat the frontalis at all, or, if treating, keep the injections very high to keep the lower segment of the frontalis from relaxing and dropping the brow. We now have Pelleve to lift the brows and help with forehead wrinkles, and Beletero to inject in the forehead to lift and fill the lines and recreate the normal 14 degree-angle of curve of the upper forehead. I tend to reserve Dysport for the forehead and smile lines, where its softer effect with more spread is desired. In the glabellar complex and upper lip lines, it is best to keep the effect directed and confined and I love Botox or Xeomin for these areas.Your physician might be able to inject a little Botox in the depressor supercilli and lateral periorbital muscles to get a little lift. Failing that, you should notice some improvement by two months.

Answer: Can Botox change the shape of my eyes It sounds like the injections into your forehead dropped your inner eyebrows and so they are creating a large arch (Spock brow) and minimizing the eyes. See an experienced injector for an assessment. Sometimes adding a bit of Botox into the outer brow region can resolve this. But it needs to be done expertly!"This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion.
