Will Eye Bags Go Away After Excessive Botox?

May 22, 2009
Asked By:Amaxy

I had Botox done on my crows feet and I believe the doctor used too much. I now have protruding bags under my eyes. Will these go away when the muscle tightens up again or is there a chance that they won't? What is the time frame?
