Can Botox Be Injected Under the Eye?

February 13, 2009
Asked By:Sueanddad in denver, CO

I have crinkles under my eye.  My dermatologist and others refuse to put Botox under the eye.  The crinkles come when I smile, so I realize that it is my cheeks that are pushing into the eye area and cause the crinkles to form. One expert recommended fraxel which did nothing for the crinkles. I have heard that some doctors will put botox under the eye, is this possible?
