Will waiting 13 weeks instead of 11 weeks for Botox make a significant difference?

Original583209
My last Botox appointment was December 16th. I got 26 units where I always do. I usually get it redone at 11 weeks. My doctor / injector was on maternity leave and my next appointment will be at 13 weeks. I'm curious if those couple weeks make a huge difference. I have been with my injector for two years and really trust her and my results. I guess my question is really will I wakeup sometime between week 11 and 13 looking significantly worse.
