I'm getting Botox in forehead, 11's, crow's feet, & masseter muscle. I know Botox is sensitive to migration for 4-6 hours after injection. I'm a very expressive talker & I make a lot of facial expressions in conversation. With the 4 areas I'm getting Botox, it safe to raise eyebrows, wrinkle forehead, make frown lines, squint, chew food, smile, & make other facial expressions immediately after Botox? Also, can I wear sunglasses or a hat? I'm concerned about Botox migrating to unintended areas.

Thank you for sharing your question. Typically, touch ups following well-performed Botox injections are not necessary, but can occasionally happen. Wait a few more days before judging the results. Visit your doctor for evaluation if you are still not satisfied.Good luck,
Thank you for your post. It is best to return to your injector for an inspection and evaluation to address your concerns.Sincerely,Dr. Benjamin J. Cousins MD
