Hi I had botox almost 3 weeks ago and went to a reputable doctor.since having it I find it much harder to cry and almost numbed down.also I hate the heavy/ironed out feeling in my forehead.i had forehead,glabella and crows feet done.i don't have any crows feet but she said it was best to treat the 3 areas in tandem.my glabella isn't much better.my forehead lines are softer but I feel like it's a huge effort to lift my eyebrows.when can I hope to find the effect wearing off?

Answer: Heavy forehead after Botox, when will this resolve? It can take up to 3 months for the forehead heaviness to resolve. It appears that too much was used in the forehead. I try to keep movement in the forehead which is a more difficult injection. Some people aren't candidates for forehead injections because they have heavy brows to start with. The frontalis muscle is the only lifter of the brows and that is what is injected in the forehead. Occasionally, I will inject a small amount in patients with already heavy brows in the central forehead and higher than usual.

Answer: Heavy forehead This typically wears off over the next several weeks. It's important that you go back to your reputable injector, and allow them to see in a short term interval what your sensation of heaviness refers to. typically your injector may need to adjust the number of neurotoxins use in the future if this is extremely bothersome to you. in the future there may have to be a compromise for the numbers of units used in your forehead in order to avoid this sensation.
