Im 22yo and had about 20 units of Botox placed around my eyebrow area to help smooth out a dent I have on my forehead. Im having review in 2 weeks time to see if I need some filler to completely solve the dent. So far it looks great however I've been told I should continue having Botox every 4 months. My concern is that I'm only 22 so will having Botox for the rest of my life be a bad thing? will I end up with a "frozen face"? And if I stop getting it, will I be left with droopy eyebrows? Thanks

Yes, a combination approach will give the most improvement. Skintyte is an option. I like fillers to this area in combination with lasers, J Plasma, ultherapy, rf treatments or microneedling/PRP. I suggest seeing an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.
May take at least 2 weeks & upto a month to see appreciable difference. The key is # units & placement of Botox. So, be sure to follow up with your injector.

So sorry to hear about your acne. Botox did not cause this directly. But any kind of stress on skin can activate acne. Please continue to follow your acne skin regimen. Consider laser light therapy or Salicylic peels to step up your treatment.
