Dent in forehead after Botox - what could be the cause? (photos)

Question

Over the past 3 Botox sessions Ive had, this dent appeared and has only not got better with it wearing off but seems to be deeper? We’ve never had to do a lot in my forehead but this is looking rough! It looks no better right after either. Ideas?

It is difficult to say through pictures alone. Botox results last up to 3 to 4 months and can be softened with Venus Legacy and Thermage treatments. At-home microneedling is an alternative to achieve Botox-like effects. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Hello!The line above the eyebrow is a margen that doctors need to leave so the eyebrow do not go downwards.The lines in the forehead can be minimzed with Botulinum toxine but it can create the optical illution of the other one getting deeper. With CO2 or Fliners can be corrected, an assessment in person this can be easily determined.
