I had 20 units of botox (frown lines @9am) Ive had botox in the past with no bruising/swelling My derm said after the first injection "I was bleeding a lot, had I used aspirin?" I had not, but I had Motrin the day prior. Almost w/in 5 minutes of the injections my left side above eyebrow looked bruised at both injection sites. It has continued to darken, is swollen and sore! Will these blood vessels return to normal? Could there be complications? Why is the swelling worse now,12 hours later?
