Glabellar Lines and Lower, Narrower Eyebrows After Botox Migraine Injections?

April 10, 2009
Asked By:candu in beverly hills

I have been getting botox injections for migraines for at least 8 years. I have my dermatologist do the injections. He injects the area between my eyes and above my eyebrows and in my forehead. I have never had a problem before. And it does help to reduce the frequency and severity of my migraines. About six months ago, I began to notice vertical lines in both my eyebrows. And the area around the lines are lighter in color. My eyelids do not droop, but my eyebrows seem to be lower and less wide. Are the injections causing this?
