Weird Eyebrow Arch After Botox

It sounds like the doctor just treated your central forehead. Sometimes, treating only this area can cause the medial brow to droop, and the lateral brow to arch upwards. (I call it the Mr. Spock look.) I would suggest asking the doctor to inject the lateral forehead where you see movement, and that should even out you brow and improve your problem.

This may be caused by Botox and it will go away as the effects wear off. I suggest you wait for two weeks before assessing your results. If the arch doesn't go away at that time, then your injector can recommend something to help soften it.

We agree with the panel members - this negative outcome is easily resolved by a very small dose of Botox strategically placed.  We disagree that this represents a "lack of sophistication" as it may occur even with the best injectors.   You should feel comfortable to return for a check up with your practitioner so that they may remedy the situation and retain their relationship with you. 

Regarding the vertical lines between the eyebrows - this is not an area that is dosed if you are only interested in treating the forehead (horizontal) lines.  You may want to discuss this at the time of your check up so that options may be offered.  Oftentimes, patients confused the forehead treatment with the treatment of the muscles responsible for frown lines.

Hi Trix,
Return to your injecting physician. The evil arch of "The Joker", "Spock", and "Cruella" can be relaxed with a few properly placed units of Botox. Make sure that your undesired results are boldly noted in your chart so as to avoid repeating the "Beloushi" brow.
Be well, and watch out for Batman until the eye brow relaxes.

I recommend you to have a check up appointment with your provider and express your dissatisfaction. This can be fixed with few units of Botox injected in your forehead. It would relax your eyebrows. Good luck!
