I got20units of botox my first time in2013 And within 5 days it worked but only lasted one month. A year passed and I tried again this time 25units just in the11's area and nothing happened. I called the place and they told me mayb I need more, I got 15 more units directly in the11's and it still didn't wrk. Not even a little. A year later I decide to try Xeomin25 units for my 11's and I'm 2wks out already and I see no results. What's wrong with me?? Is dysport not going to work either?

Answer: Botox Thank you for your question.It is very rare that someone will not respond at all to either Botox or Xeomin. Your glabella muscle appears to be very strong which in most cases will require more units of Botox. If the line still appears too deep, filler may be added to soften it as well. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment.I hope this helps.

Answer: Why Did Botox and Xeomin Not Work On Me Often I am doing 30-50 units in men or people with large glabella. 20-25 units may be too litte. Also you may want to go to someone who injects this type of 11 line often as I concentrate my botox for these cases (ie dilute the powder much less). I have never had someone that didnt response, but often even with response filler is needed to complete the line improvement. I would go to a facial contouring specialist who knows how to treat this with combination therapy. Best, Dr. Emer.
