Botox gave me droopy eye lid again! Why did this happen?

Asked By:JessJessie in American Fork, UT

I've been getting botox on my forehead for 2 years now. I got my first eyelid droop a few months ago. I waiting for all the Botox to wear off and decided to go to a new injecter. I told her my issue about the droopy eye and we went down to 15 units. I'm 1 week post injections and again I'm getting an eyelid droop. Should I stay clear from Botox on my forehead? Why did this happen again?
