Should I have this much movement after 50 units of Botox? (Photo)

L
LTwinsJun 9, 2017

This is what the top on my forehead looks like when I raise my eyebrows. I'm not sure if my injector missed a spot or if this type of movement was left to look more natural? This is my 4th cycle of Botox, and I don't remember having this type of movement in the past.

Botox worked immediately! Is it normal that it works this fast?

It is unusual for Botox to work within a few hours, but not unheard of. Everybody reacts differently. As long as you are happy with your results, you shouldn't worry. The effects should last up to 3 to 4 months. Please consult a board-certified dermatologist for your Botox treatments.

Thanks for your question. Unfortunately, BOTOX® won't have a tightening effect on your butt or help to get rid of cellulite. That's because it works to smooth away wrinkles by temporarily relaxing the muscle contractions that cause them. Instead, you might want to look into a Sculptra® butt l...

Most patients will begin to see changes in the way your face animates and softening of your fine lines and wrinkles as soon as 72-96 hours after Botox administration. Patients will see the full effect of Botox by 2 weeks after being injected.
