How Will Botox Affect Blepharoplasty Result?

March 14, 2009
Asked By:Canada in Montreal

I had an upper Blepharoplasty. I would like to know how long after I can evaluate the results? My concern is that I had the surgery 4 months after having Botox for crow's feet. I told the surgeon about the timing, and he was not concerned (he did not administer the Botox). I have since been reading on the site the fact that the Botox can affect the results, and that it can take up to 6 months to wear off. Should I be concerned if it had not completely worn off? Does it wear off gradually or suddenly? Should most of the effects be gone at 4 months?
