Had botox 8 days ago, between my eyebrows and under the curve Of both eyebrows, 1 Siringe in total.The 5th day my right eye lip droop. In 6th day i started iopidine drops wich opens my eye 2 mm but still the ptosis is noticeable.

Will it at least get better in 3 weeks so that the droop isn't so noticeable?
