I have received Botox the past several years and have had an ongoing muscle recruitment problem in my eyebrows. I am able to completely remove the recruitment with a Botox treatment. However, I would like to stop Botox for a few years while I start a family. It looks quite horrendous once the Botox wears off. I have never gone longer than 5 months without a treatment, but it does not seemed to subside at the 5 month mark. What could I do to help the muscles return to normal? Please help!!
