I recently got Botox for my deep horizontal lines. The dr said he had to leave 2 inches above my eyebrows so that I wouldn't get a heavy brow since I have a prominent brow and expressive face. (I guess) He said I would not be very unhappy with the results and my eyelids could droop and feel heavy. I respect that he could have just done it but didn't. I'm curious if I should get a 2nd opinion. I just can't believe I'll never get rid of these wrinkles! And for all that money. feeling defeated.

Answer: Is it normal to only give Botox to the top half of a forehead? Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. I can appreciate the sentiment by your injector but oftentimes these lines of expression can be treated to achieve a more balanced and harmonious result with little effect to the eyebrows or eyelids. This does depend on an in-person evaluation of your starting point. If unhappy with the information or results you have obtained seek a second opinion. Hope this helps.

Answer: Pay attention to your cosmetic surgeon's clinic's recommendations. From what you've said, it sounds as though the cosmetic surgeon's clinic you worked with were focused on tailoring the BOTOX® to your individual needs and providing the best possible results. This is far preferable to being treated with a one-size-fits-all approach, particularly as the professional you dealt with explained their decision. Of course, if you're not convinced, there's no reason why you can't consult another BOTOX® injector for a second opinion. If you do go down this route, make sure you're only consulting with a reputable, board-certified cosmetic surgeon's clinic.
