Hi all, I have neautropenia. I am planning on getting Botox in my forehead. I’ve had filler in my lips before. I saw my haemotologist beforehand for the all clear. She said it was fine so long as I took a GCSF shot before and after, and completed a round of antibiotics, just to be safe.

Although theoretically one could become immune to Botox, in over 20 years of Botox use I have never seen immunity to it! You might want to try another doctor to inject it or consider using other Botox like products such as: Xeomin or Dysport.
Thank you for your question! Difficult to tell from the pictures, but if it is residual bruising it can take a week or two to go away. Best to see your injector for a follow up. Best of luck!
