I am a little over 14 weeks post-op from a bad Botox outcome, which caused brow asymmetry. In just the past few days, I think I am finally noticing some minor improvement, but the change is extremely subtle -- and I hope what I'm noticing isn't simply wishful thinking. When the effects of the Botox wear off, how long does it usually take for this type of asymmetry to fully correct?

Botox and Dysport can be used to soften the muscular show of the calf muscles and create a slimmer look. The calf muscles are large and the results will be dose dependent. I would consider starting with 50 units in each calf and then titrate the dose upwards on future visits until...
The dilution does not matter since different doctors prefer different dilutions for injections in different areas. What matters is the number of units being injected. If the solution is too dilute and not enough units are used, you will not have an effective treatment.
Thank you for your question! Botox is used to treat many spasticity disorders in children and adults. In these instances insurance may pay for the treatment as it is not cosmetic but functional. Insurance will not pay for Botox Cosmetic to be used for facial wrinkles. Best of luck!
