I'm scared Botox on my forehead/between my eyebrows will make my lazy eye worse?

First we do not actually know what you mean by that. Are you referring to a heavy upper eyelid from ptosis or a heavy upper eyebrow from eyebrow ptosis? Neither of these will be resolved with Botox. Consider posting a photograph for more concrete help from this forum.

Thank you for sharing your question. In most cases Botox can be administered to avoid any further lowering of the brow and or eyelid but it would be important to first identify the reason for the lazy lid. Some patients with disorders that can result in that should avoid Botox such as myastenia graves and Lambert-eaton. Hope this helps.

The corrugator supercilii muscle, is a strong muscle that extends from the bone near the top of the nose to the underside of the skin just above the mid portion of the eyebrow (glabella). Depending on how deep your lines are, and how much movement you would like, our MD and RN Aesthetic Injectors can give you a subtle, natural look without over treating and 'freezing' muscles if you do not prefer this. We highly recommend an in depth consultation with our Master Injectors to explain to you the recommendation of units in each area.

Botox injections around or under the eyes can actually be used to treat lazy eye. In rare cases, Botox that has migrated can cause the eyelid to droop. This side effect usually wears off in a couple of weeks, or can be treated immediately with more Botox to lift the eyelid.

Drooping of the lid or brow is a risk when certain areas are injected with Botox. It is best to select an experienced injector and discuss your concerns prior to treatment. "High risk" areas are often avoided by the injector to keep risks low.

Eyelid ptosis is a possible complication of Botox, especially when given in the corrugator muscles for glabellar wrinkles. However, when experienced practitioners understand the anatomy, they can use techniques to reduce this risk.

Hello and thank you for your question. Its difficult to say without seeing a picture. If you did not already get a consultation from an experienced medical provider I suggest you get one and let them determine what to do after seeing you. Best wishes.

Hi, Thank you for your question. In this instance it would be best to schedule a cosmetic consultation with a trained cosmetic specialist. It is hard to assume without seeing in person. Best, Cristina Monaco, PA-C

Hello and thank you for your question. We would always recommend a face to face consult however in this case the best advice would be to have between the brows treated but avoid the forehead- if this is done you will have much reduced risk of dropping a brow due to too much toxin.
We hope that answers your question. Best wishes
